Novoflex ClassicBall 5 Version II features a “true” panorama panning base with 360° laser engraved scaling at the bottom of the housing. Completely new, and a world first in ball head design, are three 90° openings to take the ball neck that significantly increase the vertical adjustment range of the head. To make use of the panorama function the ball head is being turned upside down thus allowing a 100% accurate leveling to avoid a sloped horizon while doing panorama shots. To support the leveling, the CB5 II comes with an integrated bubble level. The necessity to lengthen and shorten the legs of your tripod/Quadropod to adjust no longer exists.
