Hi Per,
You must be filtering out my messages ;-)
A few months ago I posted a question about the extenders to the list as I
saw one for sale in a local shop. My comment at the time was that the
device looked as though it would cause instant death to the hot shoe if you
put more than a fairy cake on the top of the thing.
Actually I did't say "fairy cake" in the first message - think of it as
poetic licence. If you prefer you could substitute the phrase "a very small
amount of weight" which is more accurate but who needs empiricism first
thing on a Monday morning? ;-)
Anyone familiar with the Total Perspective Vortex?
All the best,
