Gitzo GIGT1545T Traveler Series 1 Carbon Fiber Tripod

The Gitzo GIGT1545T Traveler Series 1 Carbon Fiber Tripod is a compact support system with legs that fold around the center column and optional head. These reverse-folding legs contribute to the tripod's folded length of just 16.7". It extends to 60.2" high and can hold up to 22 lb worth of gear. With the included short center column installed, the tripod can get down to 8.6" for macro or low-angle shooting.

The tripod employs Carbon eXact tubing for added strength and stiffness compared to the Carbon 6X tubes. Traveler G-lock is a pared-down version of Gitzo's G-lock, specifically designed for the Traveler tripods to reduce overall size. These legs feature space-saving feet that fit the Traveler series' compact design. A shoulder strap is included for easy carrying.

Gitzo GT1545T Series 1 Tripod with Center Bal... Reviews

Like the Tripod but not the ball head it comes with

By Geraldine
Rated 4 out of 5
Date: 2026-04-30

The Gitzo GT1545T Series 1 Traveler Carbon Fiber Tripod with Center Ball Head is a great tripod. It is sturdy, but light enough to carry easily. It folds quite compact. The ball head that comes with the tripod is not good quality. It sticks, not easy to adjust and once adjusted and locked in, it doesn't stay at the level you have set it at. It slowly drops down on its own. If you want a great travel tripod, this is a good fit, but you will need to buy a better-quality ball head.

Perfect for my 35mm & 6x6

The GT1545T is perfect for my 35mm (including telephotos) and my Mamiya 6. As advertised, it travels easily is a pleasure to use. The ball head is better and smoother than I expected. The tripod feels solid and well built. I am 5'10 tall and can easily get it to eye level. I have two larger Gitzos which have weathered many years of hard use. I expect this one will do the same. I consider it worth every penny.

Can the center column be reversed to mount camera ...

Can the center column be reversed to mount camera at ground level for macro work?
Asked by: Charles
Yes, it can! Simply unscrew the retaining ring at the bottom of the column, take the whole thing out and insert it from the bottom up. There is only a groove that you need to allign with and make sure to screw the retaing ring back in to avoid dropping the camera and/or loosing the ring.

whats the difference between the series 1 and 2 and 3 tripods?
Asked by: Howard
Hi, From what I understood, this is all about the legs thickness. Series 1 is thinner while 3 is thicker, giving a higher weight and therefore more stability. You've got to determine the purpose of your tripod (travel vs. studio, bit of both) to determine the series that would best fit your needs. Hope this helps!

Between the head and the tripod, is there a set screw, to prevent rotation of the head? Most other tripods have such a feature.
