Enjoy a lightweight, stable, and smooth support system with this GT2545T Series 2 Traveler Carbon Fiber Tripod with Center Ball Head Kit from Gitzo. The setup offers a 4 lb 4-section tripod system with an Arca-type compatible ball head, a load capacity of 26 lb, and a height range of 13 to 65.2". Also, thanks to a reverse-leg design, the addition of the ball head does not add to the folded length of 17.5".
The Gitzo GIGT2545T Traveler Series 2 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 17.5". It extends to 60.8" high and can hold up to 26 lb worth of gear. With the included short center column installed, the tripod can get down to 8.7" 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 Series 2 legs will accept a variety of interchangeable feet and come with removable rubber feet. A shoulder strap is included for easy carrying.
The GH1382QD Series 1 Center Ball Head from Gitzo is an Arca-type compatible ball head that is compatible with Traveler Series 2 and Mountaineer Series 0 and 1 tripods, has a load capacity of 31 lb, an independent panning lock for 360° rotation, and a height of 4.4". The head weighs 1.1 lb and has a tungsten disulfide coating to help keep the ball movement smooth while it minimizes sticking and slipping. A screw lock lock tightens down on the included quick release plate, and a bubble level helps maintain straight horizons in your images. To allow for precise adjustments, a friction control dial is integrated into the large locking knob.
