Mounting your camera on the Spherical Bracket
The Spherical Camera Mounting Bracket
has a rotating swing arm which is held
into position by large black locking knob.
The knob allows you to position the arm
and your camera from plus 90° to minus
90°.
Mounted on the swing arm is an adjust-
able camera mount. This mount can be
adjusted along the length of the swing
arm by loosening and tightening the
purple clamping knob. To remove the cam-
era mount, simply loosen the knob and
slide the mount off of the swing arm.
There is a spring-loaded plastic ball which
provides drag on the camera mount as
well as the camera bracket. When you re-
place the mount or the camera bracket
onto their respective arms, you’ll need to
push it sharply so as to overcome the
spring force.
The standard camera mount (shown) has
a number of slots for you to choose from
to mount your camera. It’s important to
make sure that the centerline of your
camera’s lens intersects the pivot axis of
the swing arm. Since some cameras have
tripod mounting threads that are not
inline with the center of the camera, it may
be necessary to use one of the various slots
on the bracket.
Spherical Camera Bracket - Camera Mounting
There are camera mounting shoes (flat
shaped) and lugs (triangle shaped) that are
provided for you to help locate and position
the camera. These are also helpful when
you want to remove and replace the cam-
era and return it to the proper location.
An optional camera mount is also available
with a quick-release mount. In this case you
would attach the a plate (either Arca-Swiss
or Begen) to your camera and this plate
would then dovetail into a mating plate on
the optional camera mount.
Adjusting the camera position for the
nodal point is made by loosening the ap-
propriate locking knobs and sliding either
the camera mount plate along the swing
arm, or sliding the entire assemblage along
the arm of the Rotator Base. Be sure to
tighten the knobs when you’re done posi-
tioning the camera.
