Sample NN5 360°x180° shoot sequence
   
   

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.
