L Bracket for Mamiya AFD

Does anyone have experience with the Kirk L Bracket for the original AFD (not the AFD II or III)? The RRS L bracket is said not to work with the AFD due to it blocking the mirror up lever.

thx

The Kirk L bracket works fine on the original Mamiya AFD----I transferred mine to use on the Phase 645AF.

You might want to get the optional spacer block, which makes using the Mamiya electromagnetic release cable easier to use in portrait orientation on your tripod. There was a thread awhile back on the RRS L bracket----and I think I like that design slightly better for the new bodies, though not enough to switch over....
