I bought one on Ebay. It's an L-plate that includes a small grip on the right which really helps when landholding the camera.

I bought one off of ebay for my DP3 Merrill, it comes with a handgrip as well and it works very well. For the DP2 Quattro I used a generic l-plate and have cut out a small chunk in the short side to allow easier access to the memory card.
