The multi award-winning Lambda 50 nodal head is the only support that allows to set the nodal position with any camera and pivoting 360° on the focal plan of the camera. The settings are achieved by graduated slides both horizontally and vertically with micrometric cranks for extreme precision. Movements are assisted by a 7 steps fluid system + “0” on all axis. A smart system of orientable counterweight rods can be used when the slide run is not sufficient to set the center of gravity (CG) and match the nodal point. The Lambda 50 head can be mounted on any classic support as tripods or dollies or used in underslung position from Cranes and Jib arms. Optional accessories as hard case, 3rd Axis, steering wheel, eyepiece holder and additional counterweight rods complete the most versatile of camera supports.
