Hi,
I've been using the stock arca swiss plate (that came with the tripod) to mount a Hasselblad 501CM to the tripod. However, since it only screws onto the body at one point, the plate can come loose from the body if the body is rotated while the plate is clamped on the tripod. In principle, this problem seems to be solvable since there is the possibility of using a plate to screw on to both the 1/4" and 3/8" screw holes on the body. In this case, the body cannot be rotated while the plate is clamped, since the two screws constrain that motion.
Has anybody done this around here? What plate (or plate, and screw adapter combination) might work?
Thanks.
