Would this head fit the Gitzo mini traveler? I know that they recommend the smaller Traveller Version, but was curious if this could fit too.

question

Ive received this tripod head and the pan lock, when fully tightened, does not prevent the head from panning. Is this normal or a flaw in my unit?
Asked by: scott j.
Is it possible that you haven't secured the heads' anti-rotation set-screw located under the tripods' top-plate? This will prevent the head from twisting off the tripods' head-mounting screw.

question

On the Gitzo GT1545T tripod, with this ball head allow for the reverse fold of the legs?
Asked by: Wayne
The GH-1382QD allows for a perfectly parallel leg-fold on a 2-series Gitzo Traveller, but not on a 1-series Gitzo Traveller. For a perfectly parallel leg-fold on the 1-series Traveller, you'd want the smaller GH-1382TQD head. That said, I never fold the legs on my 2-series Traveller unless I'm storing it in its' bag or case. When heading out for a shoot,,, it's best (quicker to deploy) to unfold the tripod legs at home. This allows for the use of any head you want.

question

will this work on Gitzo monopod?
Asked by: Cynthia B.
You could use this, or almost any ball head, on almost all monopods. Nevertheless, it would be overkill since the freedom of movement on a monopod is instantaneous and wide ranging, so you don't need the rotational lock for sure. You might also do without the full range of movement that a ball head affords and just use a simple Manfrotto head with one pivot movement. The money you'd save could go to better use.
