Fanotec manufactures exclusively panoramic photography equipment. This includes panoramic tripod heads, photography aerial poles, levelers, turntables, rotators, and many other accessories. What also makes us unique to other companies is that our products are further refined over the years from feedback from photographers working in this genre. We continue to refine and build newer products to meet the growing needs of the end user. Even cinematographers are using mirrorless Micro Four-Thirds cameras and DSLR's to create ObjectVR's which we provide solutions to. Bill Bailey L.L.C. dba (doing business as) Nodal Ninja is proud to be exclusive partner to Fanotec International for the marketing and distribution of the product line.
