Same problems here. Bridge plate does not lock on the dovetail when the screws are tightened. B&H support thought I didn't know how to use it, and ultimately recommended not overly tightening the screws. A bit silly if you ask me, considering you're sitting a $300,000 camera and lens system on top of it. This bridge plate and dovetail doesn't work.

Which V mount plate is compatible with this ? The distance between the rods is 100 mm. Most v mount plates are compatible with 60 mm distance only.

No, Shape does not offer 15mm studio V-mount plate to match with this unit.
