I have 2 RF lenses and want to purchase acra swiss plates but I find very few with strap holes in them. If I can't find the right size with holes how would you attach a strap to the lens?
 
Saw several online. Given market turbulence, I'd try a couple cheapies before they vanish or get too pricey.

Receiver clamp with another lens plate screwed into its 1/4-20. That second plate is one with strap holes. EZPZ.

Less easy is to skip the second Arca plate and fabricate a simple flat plate with strap holes. This would allow for a pivoting connection if desired.

With either approach theres no dangling strap when on a tripod.
