Do you use your BH-3 to hold your camera flopped over on the side for
vertical shots? If so, what camera/lens and how well does it work?

(I've been thinking about the BH-3. I'm currently using a Foba Superball
M-1, and I'm not happy with it for flopping my Mamiya 645 over on it's side
for vertical shots. (The camera moves as I tighten down on the knob, very
irritating.))
