Options for large Arca-style QR plates?

[Lachlan 717]

I’ve been looking for a non-destructive option for an Arca fit Quick Telease plate for a big camera (7x17”).

The best that I can find is a Sunwayfoto DP-813, being 120x80mm

Is there a bigger option out there? I know that Ben Horne uses an x-plate; however, I don’t really want to drill/screw a plate on.

Even a 100x100mm plate, or a 100mm circular plate would work given the stability that heads such as the RRS BH-55 offer.

Thanks.

Novoflex has a wide selection up to 450mm long.

Thanks, Bob.

With the proliferation of DSLR mounts, it’s hard to sort the wheat from the chaff.

Starting points help.

Check out Hejnar. I also believe he'll do custom plates, if needed.

Thanks, Peter.

I’ve sent him a message asking for info on something like a 125x125mm Arca plate.

I don't know if Kirk Enterprises still makes the plate I have, but it's something like 4" square with Arca on bottom.

I use that Kessler Crane Kwik Utility Plate with my 11x14 and am 100% satisfied with it out in the field.

Thanks, Kent. Very interesting!

I use Kessler Crane XL plate on all cameras. DSLR to 11X14.

With the matching base. Never had an Arca, but this USA made object is supposed to match.
