The Panorama Plate with Dovetail Track from Linhof allows you to use your ball head as a leveling base while still being able to pan your camera on axis with the horizon. The plate can accept any Arca-type compatible quick-release plate, and it can be attached to any 3/8"-16 threaded screw. Two bubble levels on the base ensure your camera is level for panoramic photos.

For ball heads without a top plate, a 3/8"-16 hex screw is included for easy mounting.

A safety stop prevents your quick-release plate from sliding in one direction.

Q: 5. Can this be mounted directly to a Red Scarlet-W and when detaching from a dovetail shoulder rig does the quick release let go of the plate on camera or the dovetail plate?

A: This can be mounted to a RED camera. It will stay on the camera after you remove the dovetail sliding plate. The lever you see locks the plate on the dovetail sliding plate after you have gone back and forth finding the ideal balance. It does not directly release anything from the camera.

Q: 6. Can I mount this directly to a Red Scarlet W without a baseplate?

A: You will require a light weight baseplate to get proper lens to rod center. Mounting direct to the plate without the light weight baseplate will not allow you to use standard cinema accessories that require proper lens center positioning such as matteboxes.
