Nodal Ninja R20 + Rotator Mini V2 + Lens Ring
Nodal Ninja Ultimate R20 Static Tilt Head is a successor of the phenomenal Nodal Ninja Ultimate R10, only smaller and lighter, with all key features preserved. R20 is a single row panoramic head designed for use with circular and full frame fisheye lenses.
Comes with the new Rotator Mini V2 which is designed for horizontal rotation of the R20 on a tripod. Rotation can be locked using the new blue knob which allows horizontal or pole use.

- Lighter
- Smaller
- Integrated level
