Or similar. From my research this one seems to have the features I'd like but they are scarce.
-one piece
-stud for positive engagement in battery grip hole to prevent rotation
-Arca Swiss compatibility with both screw and cam type locks

Unfortunately requires a hex key rather than a coin or key.

Alphabravo,
I have a a kirk L bracket for my D5 and it requires a hex key, not a problem as keep the key in a small plastic bag with my cable release. I have number of small tools in my camera bag for tightening tripod joints etc - real pain looking for tools in a foreign country when travelling but make sure no duplication.
Best wishes.

Alphabravo,
sorry should have added my L bracket from Kirk is great, just does the job. It seems lightweight - 136grams (kitchen scales just weighed).
Best wishes.

I was also looking at that Sunwayphoto. It doesn't have the pin but it has that raised lip to keep it from twisting

I have the Sirui TY-D500L L-bracket for my D500. It's very well designed. The fit on the camera is very precise.
You can use a coin or the included hex wrench. I have been using a coin. The TY-D850L also has a slot for using a coin.

I have some D-ring screws made by SmallRig that I have installed on other L-brackets. I have not yet installed one in the TY-D500L but I will do try that soon.

Photo 2 I use these to mount the arca swiss plates to the bottom of my long lens tripod feet. 2 of them round anchor pieces from the Peak Design attached to a small spring loaded caribeener for walking around hand held.
