Mounting & Unmounting ULF cameras on tripod.

[PHOTOTONE]

I made a tripod block and have it mounted more or less permanently to a Majestic head to support my 11x14 B&J view camera. It was well worth the effort as now mounting/unmounting/balancing the camera is so much simpler.

Did you strip off all that "lovely" gray paint these normally come attired in?

Found it that way, fortunately.

For my 8x20 camera, and also for 8x10, I use a large quick release Manfrotto it's a 100mmx100mm, and a very good manfrotto head and a stable tripod(I don't remember the brand)
It's very useful and perfect for my 8x20.
I put here the image of this quick release:
