Preorder NOMAD Counterweight Kit— Launching for the Black Friday Season!

Why Use the NOMAD Counterweight Kit?

The NOMAD Counterweight Kit is designed to make your night sky photography smoother, more stable, and more versatile.

What This Kit Actually Does

Unlike a simple weight add-on, this kit balances your setup:

• The counterweight arm is positioned directly opposite the camera — always at 180° — which distributes weight evenly.
• When shooting high elevation angles, heavier lenses (especially above 2 kg or when using a tripod collar) can create excess torque, causing tracking inaccuracies.
• Adding this balance kit reduces torque, keeps motion smooth, and improves your tracking accuracy for longer exposures.

You’ll want it if you:

• Shoot with longer or heavier lenses and need better balance
• Want your NOMAD to stay stable in any position, especially during off-center/offset shooting
• Aim for improved tracking accuracy for longer exposures
• Prefer a lightweight, compact setup that’s easy to carry
• Want the flexibility to use any standard ~54 mm diameter can filled with water, sand, or small weights

Lens Recommendations:

Without the Counterweight Kit: suitable for lenses up to 100 mm
With the Counterweight Kit: suitable for lenses up to 135 mm

💡Note: The ball head in this kit is custom-designed for proper balance. Other ball heads will not fit with this kit.
