Manfrotto-Style QR Plate with 15mm Rod Clamp
This Camvate baseplate adds quick-release function to a DSLR cage kit and integrates a dual 15mm rod clamp for follow focus, lens support or matte box accessories. CNC-machined aluminium alloy keeps the assembly light while maintaining rigidity. Both the plate and the clamp provide 1/4-inch and 3/8-inch threaded holes for direct mounting to tripods, dollies or other supports.
For cage-based rigs needing Manfrotto quick
Videographers who already use Manfrotto 577, 501, 504 or 701 fluid heads can slide this plate straight onto the head without extra adapters. The integrated rod clamp lets builders attach standard 15mm accessories in seconds. Users whose tripods use a different quick-release standard, or who require a single rod or a different rod diameter, will not be able to use this plate as supplied.
The dual 15mm rod clamp spacing is fixed
Only accessories designed for a dual 15mm rod system will mount to the integrated clamp. If a production uses a single rod, a different rod diameter or a non-Manfrotto quick-release standard, this baseplate cannot accommodate those requirements.

Questions about this item
Will the CNC-machined aluminium alloy plate or the 15mm dual rod clamp need tightening or replacement over time?
The aluminium alloy construction is built for long-lasting performance; periodic checks of the clamp screws and sliding lock are the only maintenance required.
What limits continuous use of the sliding Manfrotto-style QR plate on a tripod?
The sliding mechanism and dual rod clamp stay secure under normal rig weight; the practical limit is the tripod head’s own load rating.
Does the plate add noticeable heat or noise when mounted on a cage rig all day?
No — the passive aluminium plate and clamp generate no heat or noise during extended shooting sessions.
