Subject: [Leica] Leica/Arca Survey

I have been asked over the last few weeks to investigate the possibility of
producing a dual purpose Arca-type quick release adapter plate; one that
would attach to the M camera as well as to the Winder-M or the TA winder.

I do not own either of the two winders, therefore have no opinion based on
experience.
Before going forwad I would like to poll the group to see if indeed the
demand for this item is great enough to warrant design and production of
such a plate.

I would like to hear opinions from those who own either winder and the Arca
(or other head) with quick release, and see a discussion on pros and cons.
It is taken for granted that such a plate would negate the use of the
Leicavit feature.

I am working also on an all-aluminum M grip with integral quick release
plate. Is there interest in this item also?

Thanks,
