Kirk BL-Z9 Reviews
As expected!
Does the job, that's all I wanted. Free shipping was the game changer.
Not good shape
Access to the focus mode button is poor. The frame is an obstacle to operation. Especially when fixed to a tripod in the vertical position, it becomes almost impossible to operate.
QD Socket In a Poor Place
The build quality is nice but I use the QD strap system and this bracket has the QD socket right under the palm of your hand when you are shooting vertical. It makes it awkward and difficult shoot vertical. Additionally the plate thickness is thicker than it needs to be. I have been using a Kirk Lens plate on my Z9 with a QD socket, and the L-bracket bottom plate is actually thicker than the lens plate by a few millimeters. Why? It's not for the QD socket. This just makes it even more difficult to use the vertical grip. Additionally. the bracket blocks use of the AF mode button. More evidence of a poor design. I am returning it.
Has a slight issue
Overall this Kirk L Bracket does the job and works very well with my needs and easy to use. I can not give this a 5 Star rating because of a issue I have with the bracket's construction. I will give 4.5 stars. The bracket partially blocks the access to the button for switching the focus modes on the camera. For me it makes it kinda hard getting my finger on that function button. Besides that small issue it works great. I have Kirk brackets on my Z9, d850 and d500. All work great.
Well designed
Light weight and very sturdy. Removable verticle section is a great feature.
Kirk scores again!
Love the fit, accessibility it offers, and light weight. Another typically well designed Kirk product!
The Perfect L- Bracket for the Z9
Kirk L-brackets have always been my go-to L-bracket for years. They certainly did not disappoint with the L-bracket for the Z9. It fits perfectly, screws on easily and stays put, all at a great price! What more could you ask for?
Can't go wrong with Kirk
Beautiful L Bracket for the Z9. Just waiting for the camera.
