I'm sure they have/can come up with one. What ever you get, make sure it has
an anti-rotation lip on the back. Without the lip, when you go to a vertical
composition with some of the longer lenses (lens without tripod mounts) the
camera body will tend to rotate downward. I use the plates for quick
interchangability, haven't noticed a  security issue. You can get a screw
added to one end of the plate, so the plate will only go on/come off the
head one way. BTW I worked with them to produce the mount for the PZ1P - the
lip has a cutout for the panorama switch. They are a good outfit to deal
with and stand behind their products.
