I think I saw that he has a new design that's skeletonized a bit for even less weight (I have a skeletonized plate on my Nikon F100 and it's clearly a superior design feature.) Downside? About 4 ounces of extra weight (for my old style plate.) Also, it won't allow mounting my Visoflex III (don't know if a II would clear or not.) It would only take removal of about a millimeter of metal about a quarter inch wide at the top of the plate to eliminate the interference (it hits the locking tab on the Viso) but I haven't found removal of the plate to be that big a nuisance when I want to use the reflex housing.
