Gitzo GIGT1555T Traveler Series 1 Carbon Fiber Tripod

The Gitzo GIGT1555T 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 14". It extends to 54.3" high and can hold up to 22 lb worth of gear. With the included short center column installed, the tripod can get down to 7.9" 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.

Is there a spring in there, if the horizontal adjust knob is completely removed (like it is for bigger knob)? Also when this knob is unscrewed, can the ball head move really easily? Mine still has some decent friction. Not sure if I got a dud. Thanks.
Asked by: Ciprian
No there is not a spring in the horizontal adjust knob. If the tension setting is set to about 0 and the knob other knobs are unscrewed the head will move some what freely.

Does this ball head control easy with Tele Vue TV60 and TV85 ? Or I should out the Tele Vue Tele-Pod Alt-Az Yoke Mount on the tripod ? Could I put the Tele Vue Tele-Pod Alt-Az Yoke Mount on the tripod ? Thanks
Asked by: Kwok hin
The TeleVue TV60 can be used with a photo tripod like the GT1555T or tripod that can hold 18 lbs or more. However, we do not recommend the TV60 for use with a ball head even though it is possible to mount one there. A pan/tilt head like the Gitzo 3-Way Fluid Head, B&H # GIGHF3W would be best in this case. For the TV85, a yoke is required. https://bhpho.to/2U8Io8S

Is there a screw or something else which prevents the tripod head from becoming loose without a tool?
Asked by: Daniel
There is a ring which tights to allow you to adjust the height of the straight top piece so you can set the height & tighten. The ball head has 2 knobs - one allows you rotate the head on the vertical axis - the other allows you to adjust the ball head angle - when screwed down all the way it tightens so the head 7 thus the mount will not move.
