Maxxum 7 and Stroboframe Compatability

Hello everyone...

 

I have a Maxxum 7 with the VC-7 control grip and I've been looking

into getting a flash bracket for some time now to use with my

5400HS/3600HS D. I like the stroboframe pro-t but tiffen tells me

they don't make an antitwist plate that would fit my setup. They

say to just use the cork pad but on their web site, they said that

with this bracket, they consider the use of an antitwist plate

mandatory. So...My question is has anyone used this setup with the

stroboframe pro-t and with what kind of success. Perhaps someone

knows how to secure the camera better than the corkplate and without

the antitwist. Thanks in advance for your help.

Same problem with the maxxum 9.

 

I bought the anti-twist plate for the 9 (without grip)

 

And I can use the 7 or 9 with the bracket, without the grip.

Which is not what I could desire.

 

I can/could design a plate that would work.

But the cost to manufacture would not be worthwhile, unless there were many people willing to purchase it.

I have a Maxxum 700SI with VC and the Stroboframe. I use the cork plate only and have had ZERO problems. I have been using the setup for the last 8 months. I love it and would never go back... Plus - you get this baby out and you just feel like a photographer!

 

Cheers
