The same clamp then can accept the Arca Swiss type camera adapter ($65 for M cameras) which is manufactured and marketed by a variety of people. I have this combination which I purchased from The Really Right Stuff at http://www.reallyrightstuff.com The clamp shown atop the Ball head in the first photo is similar if not identical to the B2 Pro clamp.
