Our Panoramic Head is designed as a multi-row panoramic head that also works well as a long lens head. The large degree scale on the tilt axis and the adjustable zero pointers on the pan axis make multi-row panoramas very quick and easy. The index able quick release rotates so you can attach a camera body or a long lens with a tripod collar directly to the head.

    Acratech Panoramic Head vs. Fluid Head

    Posted by Denver Offutt on 23rd Jul 2020

    I have been using a fluid head mounted on a leveling base instead of a ballhead for my wildlife and landscape photos for some time now and have found it to be a great solution. However, the fluid head is large and bulky. The Acratech pano head gives me the same functionality in a much smaller package. It is extremely well engineered and well made, like all Acratech produces and I would recommend it to any photographer who struggles with a traditional ballhead.

    Acratech Panorammic Head Better than A Ballhead

    Posted by JOHN CALLERY on 20th Aug 2019

    I have the RRS TFC-34 MK2 Tripod which I like, but I did not like using the RRS BH-40 LR II ballhead. I saw Thomas Heaton's video and started researching this product. Because my tripod does not allow for a bowl type solution I also needed a leveling base (1170) for this to work. I can say that this setup, for me, is a superior solution. I had screwed up a Milky Way Shot and some shots of ships on the water due to an inability to pan with the RRS ballhead. I now no longer have that problem. I also am using the Acratech Nodal Rail 1135 which works well.
