Compact Camera Bracket & Twin-Axis Adapter (Optional)
Mounting your camera on the Twin-Axis Camera Bracket
The Compact Camera Bracket
is offered as an optional choice when
purchasing a KiWi. You can also
purchase it separately. When used
with Twin Axis Adapter, it provides
two separate axes of adjustment. This
makes it easier to slide the camera
into the proper position in order to
locate the nodal point over the axis
of rotation. There are two sliding and
locking adjustments with purple lock-
ing knobs.
This bracket is also the best choice
for those who use fisheye lenses. Since
the camera's optical axis is inline with
the main horizontal plate, the only
part of the tripod head which appears
in the shot with a circular fisheye lens
is a small semicircular portion of the
base.
The Compact Camera Bracket has
three threaded holes for the Camera
Knob. Use the hole that is most ap-
propriate for your particular camera.
The modular construction of the
makes it easy to loosen the adjust-
ment axes and quickly remove the
various elements. There are conve-
nient measurement scales in both axes
to ease reassembly.
An optional Arca-style Quick Release
plate is available as an option for the
Compact Camera Bracket. It can be
purchased with the bracket or pur-
chased and installed at any time.
You can also purchase the Twin-Axis
Adapter separately and use it with
the Standard Camera Bracket (as
shown below). This provides additional
mounting surface area and the use of
lugs and shoes to help retain the cam-
era. This is a better choice for those
not using a quick-release plate.
