The lightest smallest panoramic tripod head on the market today.
And now Nodal Ninja NN3 MK II is even lighter and stronger with more added features.
The Nodal Ninja is a specially designed spherical tripod head allowing the photographer to adjust a camera/lens “entrance pupil” [nodal point] exactly over its correct rotational axis. This helps to eliminate parallax error inherent when shooting multiple images side by side.
Without parallax errors a photographer can seamlessly stitch multiple photographs together forming a larger higher resolution composite image.
Nodal Ninja NN3 VR Head shown fully assembled and also packed flat for transport.

Prior to purchase of equipment we strongly recommend that you confirm the camera(s) and Lens(es) you wish to use will fit the specification of your chosen VR head:
NODAL NINJA NN3 MK II - MAXIMUM DISTANCE B = 107mm
( Adding T adapter on any of the Nodal Ninja Heads increases the compatible 'B' measurement by up to 22mm )
NODAL NINJA NN3 MK II - MAXIMUM DISTANCE A = 70mm
NOTE: using a T adapter or mounting certain DSLR cameras at over 95mm on the top rail may mean that rotating the camera directly 'upwards' for a zenith shot may not be possible if your camera body snags the bottom rail - the solution being to purchase the larger NN5 model VR Head.

If your camera and lens is LARGER than the dimensions shown, DON'T PANIC - the Nodal Ninja NN5 models accept much larger camera and lens combinations!
