Apparently it just slides on,( he is in the process of sorting something out for fastening them on) "note to self: put brain in gear first before clicking buy " ah well, not to worry, will wait till it arrives and see if i can do anything with it, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horwig Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 I just put my RDF base in the Milling machine and cut the foot to size, it's been good enough for centering a 200mm lens on my 5D3 Huw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
