  "account": "This new L-bracket, the 3 Legged Thing Lexie QD, is designed to accommodate a wide range of camera bodies without obstructing ports. It features an expandable, adjustable design that allows for quick horizontal to vertical tripod swaps. The adjustable base plate enables photographers to position the bracket more forward or backward on their camera to prevent blocking access to crucial ports. Additionally, the bracket includes a sliding screw for further customization. The Lexie QD also incorporates a QD socket for quick and seamless transitions between tripod and strap usage, eliminating the need to remove the L-bracket. This QD system is exclusive to the brand's quick-swap straps. Compatible with the company's modular XPAND system, the Lexie QD features connection slots that allow photographers to add accessories such as cheese plates, risers, connectors, lights, microphones, monitors, and accessory arms. The L-bracket, priced at around $60 / £50, is available for direct purchase from the manufacturer as well as through retail stores. A compatible XP 85 Base Plate, enabling photographers with the earlier Lexie bracket to add QD and XPAND compatibility for $30 / £30, will also be sold by the company.",
