I have a 5D Mk2 and a Benro Tripod and Benro ball head. I am happy wioth this setup, but would like to do panoramas and require an L plate to do so. Are there any good and reasonable recomendations for a good L Plate for this camera and ballhead combo.

thanks
 
If your Benro ball has an Arca-Swiss type QR plate (and I think all Benros do) then any Arca-Swiss type L-bracket will fit (and that includes most of them). I use a Markins on a 5D2 and it works fine (it's light, too) though I think the current version is different. All L-brackets like this are high quality.

L-brackets are highly recommended for tripod use in vertical orientation, that's the big benefit, though you don't need one just to do panoramas.
 
Yeah, I've looked at RSS (and their other products), but for what I need, I think it's a little bit out of mybudget. I think I will go with Kirk or Markins, butwill have a look at the member's market as over £100 is a bit steep for what it is.
