Arca Swiss style plates and clamp cross reference

All claim to be Arca Swiss compatible, but looking at them in detail, one can see that this is not always true.

The dovetail plates have slight width, height and slant variations that can lead to incompatible combinations.

In addition, some vendors have lever clamps that work only over a smaller width/height range then their knob based clamps. This table covers only knob based clamps unless otherwise noted.

General dovetail shapes are used by other vendors as well, but with measures pronouncedly more different so that I do not want to put them in the table as they are not even meant to be Arca compatible.
