What is best way to attach a Pocket Wizard to a hand held Technika?

[Frank Petronio]

Finally moving into the 90s with some Pocket Wizards... what is the best way to attach one to my Linhof Technika for handheld work? What about a Rolleiflex TLR? Thanks

Duck tape. its 60"s technology.

Hardware store velcro would be the way I would go. I love that stuff.

There's a quarter twenty female receptor on the pocket wizard. Use a brass lighting stud and then couple to a manfrotto mini spring clamp. On my Sinar I clip the clamp to the front standard. A much cleaner and more secure way to go. If you're working off a tripod and getting all David Bailey with it you might want to consider a small maffer clamp instead of the spring clamp.

I usually use velcro in situations like this.

My Pocket Wizards came with a strap that I can use to hold it when needed. Velcro is a good idea as well. I suppose you could use a rubber band like with the ones used to keep fresh broccoli together at the grocery store. Same method for both cameras. What Rollei do you have? Don't the newer ones have a hot shoe? The Rolleis I have are older and don't have a hot shoe. Pocket Wizards are very durable as all of mine still work and they have seen plenty of action!

I'm assuming hand held?
You're using the cold shoe on the technika for the viewfinder?
Then an old fashioned screw in flat flash bracket with cold shoe on the tripod bush other side from the grip and stick the PW in the shoe.
My rolleiflex has a cold shoe, try that, if not then as above.
Of course if you're using a Polaroid conversion ;-) then the shoes the wrong size, and might be hard balancing it with an aero ektar!

I'm still not sure what it does. But whatever it is, it's way beyond me.
