I received a lovely Peak Designs Capture camera clip for Christmas, but the tripod plate that came with it was too bulky for my small camera (a Panasonic GM5). I know an Arca style tripod plate can be made small, because I have one that fits my camera perfectly. I went about designing a smaller clip that is compatible with the PD Capture and retains Arca tripod compatibility.

This plate fits well on my GM5, and allows the battery door to open as long as the plate is mounted off-center. I designed two options; one with slots for forward/back adjustment, one with simple tapped holes.

You will need to find a tripod screw. I modeled this to use one that I already had. The thread is, of course, 1/4"-20. The post is about 7mm tall, with about 4mm of thread at the top. The head is 11mm in diameter.

NOTE: I take no responsibility for your camera equipment if you use this. My camera is very small and light, and will probably be fine, but if you suspend your camera from this plate, remember that the plate is printed in plastic and you do so at your own risk.
