Were you able to find a Arca Swiss L plate for the SL2 (200D) I really love the camera but can't find a L bracket anywhere!

I occasionally check on ebay, but nothing yet. I think that the floppy LCD on the back complicates the design.

I've settled for a universal bottom plate for my SL2.

Hey Dave,

I've been searching everywhere on the web with not luck.

Do you happen to have a SL2 to try your SL1 bracket on to see if it fits? According to https://www.apotelyt.com/compare-camera/canon-sl1-vs-canon-sl2 the cameras are slightly different size but, I still wondered if the old SL1 bracket would fit with no issues on the SL2?

Thanks in regards

I now have an SL2...  they're not even close to the same fit.  Today I found that my generic plate would not allow me to change the battery on my SL2; fortunately i had with me a 4mm hex driver.
