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.
