Setting up
The tripod head is equipped with a 3/8” threaded
hole on the bottom of the panorama platform (a),
which fits most tripods. A 3/8” to 1/4” adapter can
be used for mounting on smaller tripods with 1/4”
threaded studs (not included).
1. Lock the panorama locking lever (b).
2. Carefully position your Nill head above the thread-
ed stud of your tripod, making sure that the head
is properly aligned, then turn it with both hands to
screw the head onto your tripod.
3. Release the panorama locking lever (b) and check
the pan function. Do not loosen the screw more
than necessary, (one half a turn is enough) if you
unscrew the pan locking lever too many turns it may
loose the connection to the internal nut.
Using telephoto lenses
Both versions of the Dietmar Nill tripod head are
designed for optimum support of long focal length
lenses with fast apertures. To make the head as
comfortable as possible to use, lenses are mounted
to the tripod head by a fast mounting plate (Arca-
Swiss-Style) and a mounting clamp. First attach the
mounting plate to your lens.
