Novoflex Tiltadapter for CB 5 ballhead (ballhead is not included). With the Tilt bracket CB5-TILT, the longitudinal axis of a ClassicBall 5 and 5 II can be locked. This ensures that with a leveled tripod, the horizon is always depicted horizontally, and dynamic shots through horizontal tracking are simplified. With the friction setting on the ClassicBall 5, the resistance of the vertical movement can be individually adjusted. Thus, the CB5 TILT is also ideal for panorama shots or for tracking moving objects, for example. Depending on which of the two locking screws on the ClassicBall is released, the ClassicBall becomes a 1- or 2-way tilt head, making it equally suitable for photo and video recording. Additionally, the Tilt bracket is equipped with three ¼” thread holes for accessories.
The installation is very simple. On the ClassicBall 5, either a Q=MOUNT or Q=BASE II quick coupling must be mounted as a base. This coupling then accommodates the Tilt bridge. With the help of an Allen key, only two adjusting screws are loosened, and the Tilt bracket is inserted right and left into the portrait format recesses of the CB5 or CB5 II, thereby blocking the movement of the ball in the longitudinal axis. Thanks to the third recess of the CB5, a portrait orientation is still possible. Thanks to a square recess on the underside of the couplings and a raised part on the Tilt bracket, the upper couplings are secured against twisting. For positioning the quick couplings, they have four locking positions at a distance of 90° each.

As photographers strive for the best possible picture, NOVOFLEX develops and manufactures tools to support them. Tools that allow the photographic limits of the equipment to be blown and the impossible image to become possible. In the think tank of NOVOFLEX ideas are thought out to make the perfect tool for the perfect picture even more perfect. Virtually all products are developed by our photo-practitioners and designers and produced in our production facility in the Bavarian town of Memmingen.
