D200, NN5, EZ Leveler and Induro
CX214 tripod. With the ability to lock the rotator base
prevents the head from rotating during a long exposure nadir shot. |

Just like the NN3, with my long exposure technique,
is still
possible with the NN5. The camera plate just has to sit above
the rails. Use a bubble level to level the camera. |
