THE SMALL JUST GOT SMALLER
If you are thinking of becoming a Google Business Photo Photographer, aka Google Trusted Photographer, we have ‘the’ perfect solution for you. Introducing the Google Ultimate R20 Static Tilt Head & Rotator Mini V2 Package. This is a single row panoramic head designed for use with circular and full frame fisheye lenses. Built exclusively for the Google Trusted Photographer this head is smaller, lighter, precise and much less expensive than similar heads on the market. Precision so exact, users are capable of repeatable results. Our products are built with the highest quality materials, ensuring you the highest quality imagery. Of the models authorized for use in the Google Business Photos program, only one – the R10, is the recommended. This was NASA’s choice as well for shooting VR aboard their upcoming mission to the International Space Station. All products are backed by our industry leading support.

“Thank you for the product update and the impeccable customer service you provide us and our GTP’s….. It really shows that Nodal Ninja truly stands behind their product and customer service.”
When purchasing the GTP Package you have the option to select the appropriate ring for your camera lens. The ring clamp mounts directly onto the lens itself, freeing up the camera. Different cameras can also be used on the same lens without adjusting any settings. Also included is a free external spirit level. The package comes fully assembled – no tools required for setup. If you are a Google Trusted Photographer be sure to ask your Google Rep for the 10% Google coupon code (only valid for this package, 1 per customer per order). Or just give us a call.
