I've owned my Tech IV for early 40 years but in the field have never used the rear movements, probably because the release buttons are so stiff that it would take two husky boys, a mule, and an act of congress to open the thing. I've often contemplated buying a Master Tech just to get the sliding releases, but that's a lot of bucks for something that I don't seem to miss.
I've often wondered if I should be using it, and that others actually find it useful, or is it just a theoretical advantage (selling-point) to have it available on a press-type camera, without actually being useful?
