Can anyone recommend a Rotating Camera Bracket for a Canon 5D MarkII using the Manfrotto quick release system. This will be for studio work on my tripod.

This looks good but may be more than I need.

I don't use a rotating bracket but I do use a L-bracket (RRS) which serves the same purpose, kind of.

Don't know what would work with the Manfrotto System, but I second the vote for the "L-bracket" from Really Right Stuff.  I have RRS L-brackets on all my camera bodies.

I think several brackets for the Arca-style mounts offer that L-bracket type capability (RRS uses an arca-style mount).   Downside is you have to change out your entire quick release system.   Upside is it is rock solid compared to a standard plate system.

Just my opinion.

I'll cast another vote for the RRS L bracket - not cheap but very sturdy and will last forever.  It's not exactly what you are looking for but still pretty fast to switch.

Thanks folks :) I will look into that solution. Might be prefect.
