    I'd be a bit concerned that the attachment to a arca swiss style head would not be strong enough. The super clamp idea is great; looks like it clears the bellows.

    Here's some food for thought. The links to the "New Graphic Tripod Adapter" don't work. I don't know if these are still available.

    Man, that super clamp saved me so many times as an assitant in NYC. That thing is amazing.

    I tried my Arca-style clamp. It opens about 3mm too few to fit. Some versions might...
    Thanks, but I'd rather just watch:

    Bummer. I just searched ebay for bogen superclamps. Like 20-25 bucks each these days.

    Super clamp's work great for B&J Rail cameras too. It has a hexagonal style rail (probably similar to the Graphic View).
