Really Right Stuff RRS L-Plate for Nikon Z9 arrived
The RRS arrived today, last week the Kirk arrived, and a couple of months ago the Smallrig arrived.
The Smallrig is the lightest and smallest and cheapest, but for me there is too much instability when mounted vertically. The Kirk has beefier construction compared to the Smallrig, but unfortunately and surprisingly there is still quite a bit of play when the camera is mounted vertically, and also the AF mode button is partially blocked.
The RRS is the most expensive, and the heaviest, but the construction is the most solid of the three, there is zero movement when the camera is mounted vertically, there is clearance that allows the Nikon remote receiver to stay mounted to the 10-pin connector at all times and not interfere with mounting the Z9 onto my ball head clamp, and they designed the L side so you still have full access to the AF mode button. RRS is the only one that features an additional stabilization pin that goes inside the Z9 base.
