Panosaurus - Panoramic VR Tripod Head for full 'spherical' movies and panoramas
From Red Door VR Limited - United Kingdom |
|
| 'The Affordable Fully Spherical Panoramic Tripod Head' The Panosaurus was designed for almost all point and shoot compact and digital SLR cameras on the market today (with a combined camera and lens combination weight of NOT MORE THAN 1.5 KILOS [approx. 3.5 Lbs]). The design represents years of evolution to address almost all the compatibility and ease of use issues users want. It may not be the prettiest kid on the block - but it can hold its own with the big guys on features. The Panosaurus head is constructed of 3/4" and 1/2" Expanded PVC plastic. This material is lightweight and yet very strong and durable. The rotator arm has been reinforced with aluminum strips. The upright metal arm is made of 3/16" inflexible aluminum. Total weight of the Panosaurus is under 2 lbs (.9 kilograms). Cameras mount in the portrait position either in the lens centerline hole of your DSLR style camera or the vertical slot (for compat digital cameras that have a tripod mounting hole off-center from the lens). The ruled lines on the upper horizontal arm make it easy to remember where your camera needs to be mounted on the head once you find the optical centre ['nodal point'] of your lens. *Note the Panosaurus is NOT recommended for use with a Camera/Lens combined weight of more than 1.5 Kilos.
The Panosaurus head will mount to any tripod that has a standard 1/4"-20 thread bolt on its top (the same size bolt that would mount to a camera). Although amost any tripod will work fine with the Panosaurus, we recommend the use of a 'Levelling Unit' fitted between the Panosaurus and the tripod. Using a leveller will enable you to level the Panosaurus in just a few seconds. Some Pro type tripods have a 3/8" bolt on their tops. You would an adaptor to mount the Panosaurus directly to such a tripod in this case.
* NOTE - The Panosaurus is supplied from the manfacturers packed flat - some assembly is required.
