Quick-Release Plate for Tripods

The Manfrotto 384 is a dovetail quick-release plate that locks a camera to a tripod head. Its 1/4"-20 screw fits most standard camera bodies and the mechanism gives an audible click when secured. The design prevents unwanted movement during exposure and allows fast transitions between handheld and tripod work.

Suits photographers needing fast camera changes

This plate works for shooters who value speed and a secure lock on compatible tripod heads. It is not for users whose tripod head requires a different mounting standard or a proprietary plate shape. Buyers needing a built-in spirit level or secondary safety pin should look elsewhere.

1/4"-20 camera screw

The single specification that decides fit is the 1/4"-20 mounting thread on the plate. If your camera uses this thread and your tripod head accepts the 384 dovetail profile, the system will connect directly. Any other thread size or head interface means this plate will not work.
