the Hexagonal Plate has a 1/4" screw? if it does, you can attach the plate to NNs directly. Note that Manfrotto 029 Head may have big nadir footprint. In that case you may want to remove it and mount NN directly on tripod.
I see you have other bigger lens, if you want to use them as well, you should get NN5L/NN5. You will get image quality close to medium format using these lens. BTW, are you going to make 360x180 deg spherical pano with 10.5mm fisheye? Or you just want to make big wide pano?
