Hi Guys,
Just a quick post to announce the new Adjuste MK2. The new Adjuste features our latest multi-track detent system. The new detent system allows you to change the number of click stops in as little 5-10 seconds whilst retaining the precision of the old system. The standard Adjuste MK2 ships with a 4,6,8 and 36 multi-track detent and we have an optional 6,12,18 and 32 stop detent plate. For those of you interested in using the Adjuste MK2 for giga-pixel panos we can custom configure a multi-track detent with up to 120 stops. The multi-track plates are user serviceable but do require the disassembly of the base.
The Adjuste MK2 also features our unique pano-specific base indicator. Unlike other pano heads that show your current detent stop position in degrees our scale shows you which click-stop you're at. Based on customer feedback and from on our own experience most panoramic photographers count the number of photos they're taking, ie 1,2,3,4,5 and 6 for a standard D200/10.5 but very few think in degrees, 0,60,120 etc. The new system only takes a day or so to get used but once you use our system you'll never want to go back.
We have a mini-gallery on the home-page at the moment showing the step-by-step process for changing the number of stops. We will also be uploading more images and photos over the coming days.

The Mk2 still features the same small footprint base at 73mm and weighs in at just over 1kg.
Please note we have stock of the Adjuste MK2 ready to ship. For our US based customers Channel360.com also have stock of the new Adjuste. Just speak to George and he will be more than happy to answer any questions you may have.
We'll also be announcing the winner of a brand new Adjuste Mk2 in just over a week. So if you haven't signed up for our newsletter yet now is the perfect time.
