FLASH LOCK PLATE

 

John Watson

   
 

The Flash Lock Plate. One of the few "approved" Minox items made in America.

 

Upon the introduction of the Minox B, The Flash Lock Plate was introduced. Many owners had the M2 BC fan flash unit. This unit being designed for the IIIs was not compatible with the B's newly metered end. By placing this plate over the meter button, a groove was now available for the flash's clamp to grip the camera. These plates generally come in a manila envelope with detailed instructions printed on it.

Designed by Don O. Thayer, Sr., this is one of the few "approved" Minox items made in America with Minox GmbH's blessing. This is shown by the maus logo appearing boldly on the top.
