Manfrotto 120 Converter Plate for 1/4-20 Socket Heads

Comments about Manfrotto 120 Converter Plate for 1/4-20 Socket Heads:

Not a very sexy product, perhaps, but when you need to attach a tripod head with a 1/4-20 female hole to something (tripod head) that only offers a 3/8-16 stud, then this product is perfect. It is substantial though still sufficently light weight. Its knurled circumference also makes it very easy to tighten or, if circumstances dictate, to loosen. I even bought a second one "just in case". A product worth every penny.

It does what it's supposed to, and does it really well. After all; it's made by Manfrotto!

The Manfrotto converter plate is solidly machined and performs its primary function flawlessly - adapting a 1/4" panning head mount to my Manfrotto 3/8" tripod. The plate is large enough to provide solid support, much better than a small nut-adapter solution. Highly recommended if you have a mix of 1/4" mounts you want to use with your pro tripod.

Converted my 5/8" tripod head screw to fit my 1/4" head; worked perfectly and was delivered to Seattle in 7 days.

An Often Needed Accessory on your Manfrotto Mono Pole or TriPods to go from 3/8 " Thread to 1/4 " Thread Mount Dia. as common to Most Sized SLR Ball Heads or Cameras. Manfrotto Quality Construction Built to Last a Lifetime.

I carry a range of adaptors but this one is good because it is big enough to fit perfectly onto a tripod and can be grabbed quickly from a bag due to its size. It is well engineered and good quality.

Very well designed.
Has the 3 locking screws, just like Manfrotto heads, so it can't turn.

I totally forgot the thread size to my tripod head before buying a new Manfrotto tripod. This is a simple converter plate that will save you money before buying a larger tripod head.

I needed a spacer plate to elevate my Hog Saddle tripod mount. I use a Manfrotto video tripod and the head was a little too wide for the Hog Saddle's knob to fully rotate. The plate solved the problem. My tripod uses a 1/4-20 mounting screw so I also bought a 3/8" to 1/4" reducer adapter. Great product!

I own 5 of these, and I use them to adapt naked tripod bases and multi-mount bars to 1/4" accessories, including cameras. Their wide base makes them a totally steady base for your 1/4" accessory, unlike the thin adapters. The wide base is especially important for heavier items such as cameras with long lenses and shoe-mounted flash units. They are indestructible. Totally "Manfrotto".

I was disappointed to learn that so many tripods come with the 3/8" bolt when both my video camera and my Canon EOS 50D have the 1/4" receptacle. This is the perfect fix for a stupid problem.

Allows regular cameras on a pro tripod boom without an arm.
