The Really Right Stuff ballheads and camera clamps are wonderful pieces of equipment. Unfortunately the don’t make a generic flat base, only form-fitted plates. While waiting for a plate for the D3, I called them up looking for a temporary solution, and they redirected me to Wimberly, at tripodhead.com, specifically the P-5 Camera Body Plate. Works like a charm.
