The Nodal Ninja 5 series pano heads were built off the award winning NN3.Bigger stronger and more robust this series will support heavier cameras and lenses.

USEFUL NODAL NINJA LINKS [open in new window]:
Useful links:
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 NN5L
MAXIMUM MEASUREMENT A = 108mm
MAXIMUM MEASUREMENT B = 172mm
(max distance from tripod screw to nodal point distance is 148mm)
( Adding T adapter on any of the Nodal Ninja Heads increases the compatible 'B' measurement by up to 22mm )
NOTE**: using a " T adapter " or mounting certain DSLR cameras at over 140mm 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.
Please note that the A and B measurements shown above are shown as a simple check to ensure that the physical dimensions of your camera do not exceed the settings and clearances of this model of panorama head, i.e. to assist in answering the question "will my camera fit?"
Exact settings for how to position your camera on the panorama head can be found either by using our 'nodal point set up video' or the chart provided by the manufacturers.
