I found nothing quite like this CAMVATE Quick Release Mount Base QR Plate. I don't know what makes it suitable for a Manfrotto - I don't have one. I have a plain, ordinary video tripod with a camera plate that I measured to fit the bottom on this base plate.
The base plate has 1/4 threaded holes on the bottom, and I should be able to mount my tripod camera plate to it - balance this base on the tripod plate's 1/4 screw. Should be that simple.
This Camvate base plate has holes that aren't threaded. They have shoulders in those holes where the shoulders are toward the top. Meaning we are to put the screws in the bottom, and screw something sitting on TOP of the plate. Disappointing - I wanted to screw something sitting below this base plate. Since I can slide the rods up and down I might be okay - I wanted to mount a rod going from left to right to attach my video screen, and other components. I might have to get a small riser for that. We'll see how it works out.
The quick release camera shoe/plate looks great. I like that I have the choice of 1/4 and 3/8 inch screws to my camera. And there is a 3/8 to 1/4 sleeve screwed in there if I need it. I don't and it'll come out (or stay in as a place to keep one handy).
First impressions: There's nothing wobbly, or cheap about this that I can detect. I like it. Hope I can make it work out as the heart of my rig.
More to come.

Replace the wing nut
So I bought this item for a BMPCC 4K rig, and come to my surprise when the camera is mounted on, the wing nut wasn't able to turn fully to lock in the camera. So I replaced the wing nut with another part from another rig that has a lower profile and ability to lock in all the way. If I didn't have this part the whole thing would've been a paper weight. but besides that its a sturdy, well built, raised base plate.

Great value, solid option to adjust rail mounted matte box to perfect height
Reviewed in the United States on June 1, 2021
Amazing value for the money. I needed an adjustable height base plate to accommodate a rail mounted matte box (wooden camera zip box pro) onto my rig. This gave me a perfect matte box fit which alone was worth the price.
