Cameras / Grips with Off-axis Tripod Mounts

If your camera has a tripod mount that is offset from the center of the barrel of the lens you 
will need the N3T30 or N3T30 offset t-adapter. First determine if the t-adapter will be needed. 
Look at the base of your camera and note the position of the 1/4” female tripod mount. If 
this tripod mount is off center from the center portion of the lens you’ll need to use the small 
camera bracket. If it is 20mm or less you can use the N3T20. If the offset is greater than 
20mm and less than 30mm you can use the expanded N3T30 t-adapter. Using the t-adapter 
allows your camera to be positioned on the Nodal Ninja is such a way as to achieve proper 
rotation about a camera lens NPP. (NN3 used in sample images).
