Exodies Posted September 5, 2017 Share #21 Posted September 5, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) I don't have my MD with me to look, but I'm wondering if it might makes sense to glue the magnet to the camera instead of the baseplate. I don't see the necessity to halt picture-taking without the baseplate.Perhaps it's not light tight without the baseplate Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveNC Posted September 5, 2017 Share #22 Posted September 5, 2017 Now I'll have to put a magnet on the camera and shoot without the baseplate, just so we know... ha! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaapv Posted September 5, 2017 Share #23 Posted September 5, 2017 Perhaps it's not light tight without the baseplate It is light-tight but not weatherproofed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
steamboat Posted September 6, 2017 Share #24 Posted September 6, 2017 All of you are the BEST. I had to immediately remove the baseplate and - DANG - there's that magnet. Cheers! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmahto Posted September 16, 2017 Share #25 Posted September 16, 2017 Has anyone tried sticking magnet to the body? How precise the location should be? If it is not then you can have one each on body and plate separated a little in precise location so that plate closes. This way you have insurance against loss of one magnet. This solution (if works) will be better than carrying second magnet in the bag. I have don't have spare magnet to try it out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
