Does it effect the security of holding the body? Not that bad of a scuff, easily fixed with some paint or polish....remind me to show you a shot of my 1DII body.

The scuff isn't that bad right now because I've only had the plate mounted for a few days with no use. Imagine using this on and off a tripod with a heavy lens over and over again. It will eventually dig deeper into the body.Originally Posted by Ehcalum
In terms of security, it still holds like a champ with no twist due to its design. I'd just rather have the camera body resting against the smooth edge vs. the corner of that shelf... grrrr...!
If using a heavy lens with a tripod collar, it would be best to use a plate on the collar as opposed to mounting via the body, event metal mounts can take but so much stress.
Of course!What I was thinking was 'heavier' lenses such as the 24-70 f/2.8 or lenses w/o a collar.
