L Bracket for Canon 80D
I would like to get an L Bracket for my 80D, but notice that some brackets will block the remote port or hinder the use of the tilt screen. Can anybody recomment a bracket that will suit the 80D without causing these issues?
How I found one for my Nikon D750 was to check out all the l brackets on amazon then read the comments and reviews and found one which didn't block the ports via the comments.
I know this doesn't exactly answer your question but if no one comes up with a recommendation you can try my method, good luck.

Also check that the L Bracket is compatible with your tripod head.
I eventually bought an Area Swiss L Bracket but still have to undo and swivel to get access to the battery, not that much of a problem as I always go out with a fully charged battery so generally not an issue.
But, as Brendan implies, quite an useful accessory

I found a used Really Right Stuff L bracket on ebay and it is brilliant, I have used a few in the past but this is made from one piece of aluminium so is very rigid, I found that the 2 piece ones can work loose and I used to put some thread compound on it to stop this happening.
The 3LT ones that Brendan uses are good but I thought expensive, some now come with a female threaded hole that you can use for a magic arm for LED light attachment etc, great for macro.
I use a generic cheap (£10) one off ebay for my Canon G1X which has a flippy screen with no problems.
Good luck in your search

Thanks guys for your help. The 3LT Ellie reviewed in the video looks perfect so I'm going to buy that.
