I found both of these on Adorama, Which would you folks choose, or do you have any other suggestions?

Someplace in a junk box I have an L bracket from probably 50 years ago that I'd like to give away if I could find someone I dislike enough.I found both of these on Adorama, Which would you folks choose, or do you have any other suggestions?

Thanks, but I hope you don't dislike me. I'm sure it wouldn't fit my camera.Someplace in a junk box I have an L bracket from probably 50 years ago that I'd like to give away if I could find someone I dislike enough.
Why do you dislike L brackets?LOL. Of course not - just expressing my opinion of L brackets.
When mounting the camera, or a lens with no rotating tripod mount, I prefer a ball head for verticals so a bracket would be redundant.Why do you dislike L brackets?
… so a bracket would be redundant.
I'm sure they work well for those who have a use for them..Not at all!
When all adjustments are done and ready to shoot an
horizontal frame, the L bracket will allow a vertical fra-
me to fit right in without any further fiddling.
They are a great bump and scratches protection.
Winner, winner...chicken dinner!!I'm sure they work well for those who have a use for them..
Though not for portraiture, that's pretty much why I bought mine. I soon found out, however, that almost every time I switched orientation I was recomposing anyway - moving the tripod in or out or to one side or the other to suit the new composition - so didn't see an advantage. Whatever works, I say!The use I have for an L bracket is on a tripod, I can quickly go from landscape to portrait without having to move the tripod over then raise of lower the head. On a rolling stand, it's super quick and I don't lose the rapport with the subject screwing with a tripod.
