During Christmas I bought both the Sony RX10M2 and the RX100M4. Anyone here have any suggestions on a good Arca-Swiss compatible plate that can be used with a RRS ballhead?

Really Right Stuff (and others) make plates that can be fit to the RX100s but the proximity of the tripod socket to the battery/memory card door means one may need to charge and/or download via cable or remove the plate to get to the card/battery. Not sure if the RX10 has similar fit issues but the same sorts of sources make universal plates/brackets that might work if they don't have model specific plates. Maybe RRS, Kirk, Acratech, Hejnar and JTec could be searched/contacted.

I use an inexpensive L bracket from China (multiple sources for the same product via Amazon, etc.) on my NEX-6 but that's a lighter set-up than the RX10 which might deserve more precise manufacture and detailed fit, etc.

The RRS narrow plate doesn't fit the RX1xx series due to the ridge in the back of the plate. ie. the plate is not large enough for the ridge to catch the edge of the camera.

What do you suggest then?
