Quite helpful. >Pete I am interested in the Stroboframe adaptor because the adaptors I've been using, made by Bilora, aren't made any more apparently and I need something I can get more of. It sounds as if maybe the Stroboframe adapter covers the M baseplate so much that it has to be removed before taking the baseplate off the camera? Is this right? I find that using the GMP M-Grip means that I can still access the baseplate lock on the camera base and take the who lot off at once- baseplate, M-Grip and QR adaptor. Joe Berenbaum
