Really Right Stuff BGFX100S-LS: L-bracket for FUJIFILM GFX 100S & GFX 50S II

Really Right Stuff BGFX100S-LS L-bracket for FUJIFILM GFX 100S & GFX 50S II

You can tell immediately when an L-bracket really fits the camera. The Really Right Stuff BGFX100S-LS nestles snugly against the FUJIFILM GFX 100S and FUJIFILM GFX 50S II without wobbling or slipping. No fiddling, no improvising, but a precisely manufactured tool for your everyday work in the studio and on location.

The L-bracket is not universal, but deliberately designed for a specific camera model. As a result, it sits securely on the camera and provides reliable twist protection. This is worth its weight in gold, especially with heavy medium format lenses, because your combination remains steady on the tripod even when you change orientation frequently.

Specifically developed for the following cameras

This BGFX100S-LS was specifically designed for the following cameras: the FUJIFILM GFX 100S and the FUJIFILM GFX 50S II. The contour of the bracket follows the camera body exactly, so the contact area is large and the camera is securely fixed. Control buttons, flaps and ports remain sensibly accessible so you don’t have to take everything apart every time just to change a memory card or plug in a cable.

We see this L-bracket as a sensible addition for anyone who uses their GFX 100S or GFX 50S II seriously, whether in the studio, for architectural shots or out in the field. In short: it is tailored to these two Fuji cameras and optimized precisely for them.

Arca-style compatible for flexible quick-release systems

The BGFX100S-LS is ARCA compatible and thus integrates seamlessly into common quick-release systems. The clamping profile fits ProMediaGear clamps, Wimberley clamps, Arca-style compatible 38 mm quick-release clamps (according to the manufacturer), Really Right Stuff screw clamps, Really Right Stuff lever clamps and Kirk clamps. So you don’t have to change your entire tripod setup, but can simply integrate the L-bracket into your existing Arca-style compatible system.

Thanks to the Arca-style compatibility, you can switch from portrait to landscape format in seconds without changing the tripod position. This is a real advantage, especially with heavy medium format cameras, because the center of gravity remains above the tripod axis and the system stands more stably.

Made in the USA, precision machining from 6061-T6 aluminum

The BGFX100S-LS is made in the USA and consists of robust 6061-T6 aluminum. This material is practically a classic in photography because it offers a very good ratio of strength to weight. With a weight of around 163 g, the L-bracket remains pleasantly light without feeling delicate or unstable.

The surface is type II black anodized, which not only provides a discreet look but also increases resistance to scratches and wear. This way, the bracket still looks neat even after many uses in the field. The modular design also allows you to adapt the L-bracket to your way of working, for example if you want to take specific cable paths or accessories into account.

With QD strap socket for quick strap changes

The BGFX100S-LS features a QD strap socket, i.e. an integrated mount for quick-detach strap anchors. The system is QD compatible and allows you to snap a suitable strap in and out in no time. This is extremely practical, especially if you frequently switch between tripod use and handheld shooting, because no strap is in the way when the camera is upside down or close to the tripod head.

To use this QD strap socket, you need a strap with suitable QD strap anchors. You can find more information about this here. Once you’ve worked with a well-matched QD system, you usually won’t want to go back to fiddling with conventional strap lugs.

Form-fitting anti-twist protection and reliable hold

The L-bracket fits the camera in a form-fitting way and thus acts as anti-twist protection. This means that the camera does not rotate unnoticed on the plate when you apply an angled load or realign it frequently. This is crucial, especially for longer exposure times or for panorama photography series, because every small movement can become visible later.

Thanks to the precise fit, the center of gravity of your FUJIFILM GFX 100S or FUJIFILM GFX 50S II remains cleanly above the tripod axis, whether you are working in portrait or landscape format. This not only protects your tripod, but also makes the entire setup more trustworthy, especially with heavier lenses.

Dimensions, weight and everyday handling

With a width of about 16.4 cm, a depth of around 6.6 cm and a height of about 9.3 cm, the BGFX100S-LS is dimensioned so that it securely encloses the camera without being unnecessarily bulky. Despite its sturdy construction, the weight remains a comfortable 163 g, so your gear does not become unnecessarily heavier.

In everyday use, this means the L-bracket can simply stay on the camera, even when you put it in a bag or carry it in a backpack. You don’t have to constantly mount and remove it, and you always have the Arca-style compatible base ready as soon as a tripod comes into play.

Laser-engraved sensor center mark for precise alignment

A laser-engraved sensor center mark helps you align the camera precisely on the tripod. This marking is particularly helpful if you want to work very accurately or need repeatable setups. For panorama photography, such a marking is almost indispensable because it helps you choose the axis of rotation so that clean, easily stitchable image series are created.

The clear engraving allows you to orient yourself quickly, even in low light or when things get hectic on set. It’s a small detail that makes a surprisingly big difference in practice.

Really Right Stuff R-Lock safety mechanism

The integrated Really Right Stuff R-Lock safety mechanism increases security when used with matching R-Lock clamps. The system ensures that the L-bracket is additionally secured in the quick-release clamp and cannot accidentally slip out if the clamp loosens or is not fully closed.

This additional level of safety is particularly reassuring with expensive medium format cameras. You can focus more on the subject because you know that the connection between camera, L-bracket and tripod head is thoughtfully secured.

Modular design for different setups

The BGFX100S-LS has a modular design. This means that individual parts of the L-bracket can be adjusted or repositioned to optimize, for example, cable routing, access to the battery grip or special holding positions. If you frequently work with tethering, remote releases or other attachments, this modular construction offers you more flexibility without sacrificing stability.

This allows the L-bracket to be integrated flexibly into different working styles, from fast reportage use to carefully planned studio or architectural shoots with many accessory components.
