What is the weight of the L-bracket?

Troubleshooting
Camera is unstable on the tripod after mounting the L-bracket.
Ensure the 1/4"-20 tripod screw is fully tightened into the camera's tripod socket. Also, verify that your tripod head clamp is securely tightened onto the L-bracket's base plate.
Accessory ports (battery, memory card) are blocked.
Double-check that the L-bracket is correctly aligned and seated flush against the camera body. Ensure you are using the specific ZADIE L-bracket designed for the Nikon Z6 III, as other models may not offer full access.
Camera strap attachment feels loose.
Ensure the camera strap's QD connector is fully inserted and locked into the QD socket. For the strap slot, use straps designed for this type of attachment and ensure it is properly threaded.
Difficulty attaching accessories to mounting points.
Ensure you are using the correct size screw (1/4"-20 or 3/8"-16) for the accessory you are trying to mount. If using adapters, confirm they are securely attached to the bracket.
