Nodal Ninja 180 - Factory Irregular

 * Factory Irregular units may have some minor cosmetic flaws from factory. In most cases, there is no perceivable difference and the full warranty is still supplied. For more information, please see this thread on the Nodal Ninja forums.


For single row cylindrical panoramas. Adjust click stops on the fly to either 60, 90, 120 or 180 degree increments. Giving you the equivalent of 2, 3, 4 or 6 stops around. Includes Camera plate and rail stops and hard shelled case.

The NN180 will support camera/lens combination's which NN3 and NN5 do not support.
They include stops for dual shot spherical panos when using lenses such as Nikon FC-E8/E9 and the Sunex 5.6mm Fisheye. Also supports long converter-camera combination's such as the earlier mentioned FC-E9 and also Raynox DCR-CF185 Pro when using with long prosumer or point and shoot Digital Cameras.

NN180 is also intended to simplify pano taking for certain camera/lens combination's by allowing single row shooting instead of multi-row shooting. They include cameras with circular fisheye lenses such as the Sigma 4.5mm, sigma 8mm on full frame cameras, Sunex 5.6mm, and Nikon FC-E8/E9  for making spherical panos, also wide angle lenses for making cylindrical panos. Lenses such as shaved Nikon 10.5mm on full frame sensor and Sigma 8mm on cropped sensor can be supported by using a L-bracket and slanted adapter (to be released later) for making spherical panos.

Features:

  • Universal - fits all circular fisheye lens from compact digital cameras (T-adapter required for offset tripod socket) with FC-E8/E9 to big professional cameras like Canon 1Ds series and Nikon D3.
  • Advanced rotator design (Rotator D4).
  • Fully lubricated bearing for smooth rotation.
  • 4 detent interval options (2, 3, 4, 6 stops /180, 120, 90, 60 degrees).
  • Suitable for most fisheye lens for making spherical panos.
  • Detent interval can be changed in seconds on the fly - just unscrew the knob and screw into desire interval hole.
  • Knob for locking rotation.
  • Ideal for making HDR panos or in windy locations.
  • Small nadir footprint, diameter of 54mm provides sufficient precision and stability while keeping the nadir footprint small.
  • The unique placement of knobs means that they will never appear in the spherical panos.
  • Compact and light weight - only 500g.
  • 5kg (12 lbs) loading supported.
  • Supports all cameras up to medium format.
  • More affordable and greater value for dollar.
