PC-LR: Lever Release Panning Clamp

The PC-LR Panning Clamp is a versatile accessory designed for precision horizontal panning. Featuring our patented lever-release clamp jaw and a lockable 360-degree panning bearing, it offers robust yet lightweight performance for single-row panorama shooting. The stainless-steel lever flips between closed, half-open, and fully open positions for instant status checks.

With a built-in dovetail base, the PC-LR mounts seamlessly onto any Really Right Stuff ball head clamp, eliminating the need for a leveling base in many setups. Thanks to the increased speed and accuracy of the panning clamp, setting up single-row panoramas becomes effortless.

For added convenience, the PC-LR includes a neoprene pouch for easy storage when not in use, reducing tripod setup weight for part-time panorama shooters. Additionally, it features a central 3/8"-16 threaded socket and comes with cap-head 1/4"-20 and M6 screws for direct mounting to Really Right Stuff and Arca-Swiss ball heads. Note: An adapter may be required if not mounting to the latest R-Mount compatible ball head.
