The bottom L bracket can be turned upside down.

It's also very difficult to make sure the centre column is plumb. This clip on bubble helps......

Canon and Nikon only have in lens SR and the ones that do video like it. They also like it on Sigma lenses.
Canon 60D + Sigma 17-50mm Test (Tenerife 2012)

That video could have been shot on a Pentax with the same lens.
Pentax users have no interest in video. When the US forum did a test on the Sigma 18-50mm they didn't even mention that the in lens SR was handy for video even though it came out better than the inbody SR.

I have never seen any Pentax user recommend a Sigma lens for Video because it has SR. I doubt if richandfleur has tried one he's just a troll and moaner
If there was a market for SR in video for Pentax. Sigma could have cashed in. Instead they removed it from the lenses so little was the demand.
The in body SR (OS) on the Sigma 150-500mm is amazing even on a tripod. That's the only Sigma lens I have with OS.
