|
The CB Gimbal is what gimbal should be. True roller bearing design for the easiest and smoothest movement in all directions. Sepearate drag adjustment and lock for both horizontal and vertical movement of your lenses using soft rubber coated knobs. All knobs are captive and a bubble level is added to the base for convenience of leveling when needed. A setup level for the fastest and safest way to level your long lenses. The best part of the CB Gimbal is that it's modular. Not only does it disassemble for easy packing in your bag for traveling, but it can be used with any Arca Swiss type ball head for lenses like the 200mm and 300mm. The design also allows it to be used as a panoramic head with 360 degree markings for using your wide angle lenses.

Manfrotto #300N Panoramic Head
|
The 300N panoramic rotation unit allows the photographer to take sequential constant-angle shots around a single axis, an essential part of achieving accurate and easy-to-stitch panoramic compositions. The set positions of the 300N give ample choice of rotation angle and so of number of photos needed to complete a 360° pan and cover the most common requests of panoramic photographers depending on the camera/lens equipment used. To make angle selection easier, a "click-stop" selector screw is included and attached to a safety cable to prevent it from being separated from the head and getting lost. The 300N also comes complete with a secondary locking screw which stops unwanted or accidental rotation of the head when heavy or off-centre equipment makes it less balanced or when the head is used for non-horizontal rotation. The 300N can also be used as a turntable base for object panoramas, or as a means of reading the angle of rotation of camera pan movements in a range of photography. A camera can be mounted on the panoramic unit by adding one of a range of quick release, sliding or fixed plates or a conventional geared, ball or 3-way head.

Manfrotto #338 Levelling Base
|
The 338 is fitted between tripod and head and is used in combination with tripods that don’t have built-in levelling mechanisms. Its three adjustment dials enable the operator to make fine, finger tip adjustments up to +/- 5 degrees to ensure the camera is perfectly level. The dials also have locking rings to ensure stability once the right position is reached. A spirit level is built in for reference. The base has a 3/8" female tripod fitting and a 3/8" male head fitting.

Manfrotto #303 QTVR
|
The 303 pan head permits the photographer to take sequential constant-angle shots around a single axis with his or her camera either in portrait or landscape position, and with the nodal point of the camera/lens in line with the centre of panoramic rotation to ensure that parallax effects do not cause problems during image stitching. It is built around (and includes) the 300N panoramic unit, adding a system of sliding horizontal and vertical plates for accurate positioning of the camera nodal point. The plates have engraved index rules to make subsequent repositioning easier. The included quick release elbow bracket lets the photographer use the portrait orientation of the camera gaining vertical field. The system is suitable for most 35mm SLR still and digital stills cameras using wide-angle or standard lenses. 303 Features:

Manfrotto #303 PLUS QTVR
|
The 303PLUS advanced panoramic photography head is built around the 300N pan rotation unit, with sliding plates for nodal point positioning and an elbow bracket to allow the camera to be mounted in either portrait or landscape orientation. It incorporates precise geared movements of the two sliding plates used to locate the camera over the panoramic axis of rotation, adding greater accuracy to nodal point positioning. The micropositioning plates provide extremely precise fingertip adjustment via a gear drive system; a release button disengages the gear drive to facilitate rapid movement of the plates when required. The plates are also longer than those of the 303 head, which helps to make this head suitable for use with larger traditional or digital SLR cameras equipped with standard or wide angle lenses, or for medium format cameras.

Manfrotto #303 SPH Spherical QTVR
|
The 303SPH is a multi-row panoramic photography head. It has sliding plates to locate the camera over the panoramic axis of rotation, plus a sliding plate which rotates around the front/back tilt axis. This allows the camera to be rotated on both horizontal and vertical axes around the camera/lens nodal point, so multi-row panoramic photo sequences (cubic VR photos) can be taken accurately and easily. Using the 303SPH ensures that software used for photo stitching produces a precisely composed VR environment with minimum post-production intervention or software correction. All plates and rotation index guides on the 303SPH have clear markings to allow easy repositioning of the camera once nodal point position has been identified and noted down. The 303SPH’s vertical bracket can be unlocked and rotated through 90° (then re-locked) so that the head takes up less space in transport, and so that the sliding plate mechanisms are protected against knocks and bumps. The 303SPH comes complete with a extra set of sliding plates for use with cameras of different sizes. 303SPH Features: Three sliding plates for precise nodal point positioning on all planes/axes. Short plates included for more convenient use with compact cameras. Long plates included for use with larger SLR or medium format cameras. Camera attachment via 1/4" and 3/8" male screw. 3/8" female tripod fitting. Dual graduated scale to set the angle of rotation to any of the following: 90°, 60°, 45°, 36°, 30°, 24°, 20°, 15°, 10°, 5° (respectively equivalent to 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 18, 24, 36 or 72 photos to achieve a full 360° rotation) on upper part of 300N rotation unit. Graduated scale from 0° to 360° on lower part of 300N rotation unit. By removing vertical brackets, the 303SPH can also be used as an object turntable. Vertical bracket folds down and removes for compact size during transport.
