The ND16 places a ±15° geared tilt stage above a geared panning stage. The lower stage turns the complete tilt assembly, while the upper control refines the camera angle for photographic composition, video framing and optical equipment alignment. Panning travel is 330°.
The self-locking worm drive holds its position when the knob stops, without a separate movement lock.
Micrometer-style knobs divide each turn into 100 equal graduations for observing and controlling small adjustments. Unfold the crank for quicker turning, or use the knurled rim for fine control. The folded crank preserves the knob’s circular profile and uninterrupted gripping surface.
On the panning stage, one knob turn produces 6° of rotation, with 0.06° per graduation.
The upper clamp accepts Arca-type plates. A 60 mm quick-release plate is included. The base has an Arca-type dovetail and a 3/8-inch mounting socket; a thread adapter permits a 1/4-inch connection.
