Also...given that these magnets are powerful - can you pull the back off to change (Horiz/Vert) orientation without affecting/changing back adjustments? Seems that with such a light camera this might be an issue, further indicating the use of mechanical (not magnetic) means of securing the back.
Or perhaps you've incorporated some sort of lever lift mechanism to facilitate smooth detachment? Just curious!
