> the Bogen hex plate would seat nicely on the head, but the camera would very easily torque off the plate
The current plates (I do not know when this started) have some set screws in the bottom that can be tighened against the bottom of the camera to lock things down, assuming you have a solid bottom to tighten against. Combined with some locktite on the camera screw, esp the 3/8 one, it can be very stable - as long as you do not want to remove.
