Really Right Stuff MPS smartphone L-bracket with integrated dovetail clamp

Really Right Stuff MPS Smartphone L-bracket with integrated dovetail profile, precise control for your phone

You often only notice it out in the field: the smartphone has long since become a fully fledged camera, but the right mount is missing. The Really Right Stuff MPS Smartphone L-bracket closes exactly this gap and turns your phone into a serious capture tool in no time. Stable, precise, pleasantly straightforward to use and clearly tailored to photographers and content creators who don’t want to improvise all the time.

Flexible from 58.5 mm to 87 mm, fits securely without wobble

The MPS smartphone mount securely holds smartphones with a width of 58.5 mm to 87 mm. This covers pretty much everything from compact smartphones to large flagships with a case that currently end up in a camera bag. We set the width once using the supplied magnetically secured hex key. After that, the setting remains stable, with no need to readjust after every second use.

Once the width is set, the rest is surprisingly relaxed. Mounting and removing the smartphone is done via an easy-to-grip locking knob. One movement, no fiddling. We clamp the smartphone, tighten, done. For quick perspective changes, short clips, or when you just want to reply to a message in between, this is very convenient. No tools, no fumbling, no fear of anything slipping out.

Integrated dovetail profile for Arca-compatible quick-release clamps

The MPS Smartphone L-bracket has a precisely machined dovetail profile that fits seamlessly into standard quick-release clamps. This profile is designed for the widely used 38 mm dovetail clamping profile that you know from many high-quality tripod systems. This way, the bracket is securely held by compatible clamps and sits free of play, without unnecessary wobble or tilting.

What’s important here: the quick-release clamps used must be able to accept a 38 mm dovetail clamping profile, as is common with Kirk, Really Right Stuff or ProMediaGear quick-release clamps. If you already use an Arca-compatible system, you simply integrate the MPS bracket into your existing setup. No rebuilding, no adapter circus, but a clean, professional solution that feels as if it was intended for this from the very beginning.

Made in the USA, precision from practice for practical use

The MPS Smartphone L-bracket is made in the USA and follows the typical Really Right Stuff philosophy: robust materials, clean edges, no unnecessary gimmicks. This is a construction that feels more like classic precision tooling than just another smartphone gadget. You notice it the first time you tighten the locking knob, when it clicks into the quick-release clamp, and even after many uses in everyday life.

Thanks to its high-quality manufacturing and well-thought-out design, the bracket is interesting both for ambitious hobby photographers and for professionals who want to seriously integrate their smartphone as a camera into their workflow. Whether product videos, social media content, long exposures or time-lapse on a tripod, the MPS L-bracket ensures that your smartphone is not the wobbly weak point in the setup, but a reliable part of your gear.

Smartphone photography at tripod level, stable and repeatable

With the Really Right Stuff MPS Smartphone L-bracket, you bring your phone up to a level otherwise known from system cameras. In combination with a solid tripod and a quick-release clamp, you can achieve repeatable framing, clean panoramas or steady video recordings. This makes a noticeable difference, especially for night shots, product photography or macro work with add-on lenses.

Time and again, we see that after the first stable long exposures with a smartphone, people are a bit surprised at how much quality is actually in there when the foundation is right. The MPS bracket provides exactly this foundation. It holds your smartphone securely, centered and reliably in position, without twisting under load or slowly sagging.

Easy everyday operation, set once, use forever

The idea behind the MPS bracket is pleasantly pragmatic. We set the width to our smartphone once using the magnetically secured hex key. This key is designed so that it doesn’t get lost easily, but is held securely and is quickly at hand when needed. After that, everything runs via the locking knob. Place the smartphone in, turn the knob, tight. Loosen again, remove, move on.

Especially if you often switch between portrait and landscape, test different apps or spontaneously jump between photo and video mode, this simplicity pays off. You don’t have to realign every time or struggle with a wobbly clamp. The bracket remains adjusted to your device and provides you with a consistent, reliable base for your shots.

Compatible with professional quick-release systems

The integrated dovetail profile geometry makes the MPS bracket a fully fledged member of Arca-compatible systems. In combination with Kirk, RRS or ProMediaGear quick-release clamps, you can mount the smartphone on the tripod just as quickly as a camera. We place the bracket in the clamp, tighten it, and within seconds we have a stable, repeatable position.

For everyone already using an Arca-style-based system, this is a real advantage. You don’t have to use additional adapters, special plates or improvised mounts. The MPS Smartphone L-bracket integrates cleanly into your existing setup and expands it with a solid smartphone mount that doesn’t feel like a compromise.

For content creators, photographers and everyone who takes their smartphone seriously

Whether you record vlogs, produce reels, film tutorials or simply want to take your landscape shots to a new level, the Really Right Stuff MPS Smartphone L-bracket is a well-thought-out solution for anyone who doesn’t see their smartphone as just a snapshot device. It combines precise mechanics with everyday usability and turns your phone into a tool that integrates seamlessly into a professional setup.

We’d say it’s nothing spectacular in the sense of loud and flashy, but that’s exactly the point. It works quietly in the background, holds reliably and allows you to focus on the subject instead of the mount. And in the end, that’s exactly what makes a good smartphone mount.
