Bob,
Thanks for the tip... I hadn't considered the fragility of the back casing.
Your advice is much appreciated. Have you, or others in the group ever damaged,
or heard of someone damaging the back casing when using only the tripod thread
socket to attach your TLR to a support?
Anyone else care to comment on the idea of using a quick-release (QR) clamp and
plate system in concert with a Rolleifix for attachment of a TLR?
Thanks,
Sam

FWIW a "modern quick-release plate system that offers greater security
and flexibility with a variety of cameras and formats" will NOt have
the mauin advantage of a Rolleifix--attaching to the front pins on your
Rollei to prevent damage to the rather fragile back. You'd be well
advised to screw the Rolleifix onto a quick release plate for whatever
system you decide on.
