The right tool for the job
Verified Purchase
I've purchased the cheap, off-brand versions, and nothing beats the genuine article. I'm an architectural photographer by trade, and the others that I've tried didn't fit well enough to be useful. This adapter plate fits my Manfrotto heads (geared and ball) perfectly and without any slop that I've experienced with the cheaper versions. Do yourself a favor and just pony up for the real deal. It's worth it!
 
fantastic original product

I lost my 'old' version, that was really heavy piece. I read about this that it's new and light. It's from Manfrotto and that is already guarantee of quality for me. I won't put a 2500 dollar camera on a flimsy tripod with a flimsy mount. This is so light compared to the old ones. It's great, buy it.
 
It works like a charm! :-)

This is the same quick release plate that came with the Manfrotto MK290LTA3-BHUS 290 tripod I recently bought. And, since I switch between my film camera and my digital camera on photo shoots, it helps to have a quick release plate for each camera. I'll probably buy a couple of more just to have as spares and for cameras I may buy in the future.

Lost my original shoe so I needed a replacement. Using my Prime I got exactly what I was expecting and in 2 days.
 
Genuine Manfrotto Product

This works AWESOME! it is MUCH lighter, but there is no compromise in quality from the original plate. This is a genuine Manfrotto product. It came in the original packaging and has their logo on the base screw. I will be ordering more soon for all my telephoto lenses and all my camera bodies.

This fits my Manfrotto MKCOMPACTADV-BK Compact Advanced Tripod with 3-Way Head. This is basically an exact replacement for the one that came with the tripod
 
Because I lose them...

I buy extras. This one works just fine, so now I have a backup.
 
Worth the few extra bucks

The reason you pay a premium for a basic little item like this is because you appreciate and want quality. You do get that here. It is light but still feels substantial.
 
Excellent product

Great quality, fits as expected in my tripod.
 
Great deal.

This is a good copy. Not a Chinese clone. Tested it and it works great. You always need an extra for just in case. These should come with two of these but they don't.

Custom Questions & answers

Question:This plate is compatible with my manfrotto befree tripod mkbfra4-bh?
Answer:Yes, I have the same tripod and I ordered 2 extra plates. They fit perfectly.
 
Question:Does it include the rubber cap for the base screw?
Answer:When I got mine it did NOT include a rubber cap for the base screw. That said, I have never had a problem with my tripod screws getting fouled or cross-threaded. Only on light stands sometimes, but I think that's because the thread on a light stand is much more subject to taking a blow than on a tripod. Just my 2 cents worth. But, NO. NO RUBBER CAP.
 
Question:Will this fit the manfrotto element tripod
Answer:If you know the model of your tripod then go to Manfrotto website and find manuals. In there they give you the part number you require.
As there are 4 different versions of Element I am unable to confirm, but the one I looked up is a different part.

Question:is this plate compatible with mkcompactadv-bk sn/t0703985?

Question:Is the 200lt-pl the same as the 200pl?
Answer:I have a 200PL Plate and it will not fit the Manfrotto Compact Advanced Aluminum Tripod. It is loose. They look identical but my plate wont fit. Heard others have this problem.
