Gitzo Traveler GIGT2545T Overview

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.

The tripod employs Carbon eXact tubing for added strength and stiffness compared to the Carbon 6X tubes.

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.

Gitzo Traveler GIGT2545T Reviews

Great Travel Tripod

By Sejal
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2026-03-24

I have been using the Gitzo Mountaineer Series 3 for over 10 years, it is an awesome tripod paired with my RRS BH-55 ball head, but as I get older I needed something lighter so I got this tripod and the RRS BH-40. What a difference! Same great Gitzo quality.

Optimizes the balance of strength and lightness

The Gitzo Traveler is the easy choice. The hard choice is the head.

This tripod obviously doesn't come with a weight hook, but is there an optional one that will fit it?
Asked by: Gregory
Yes. The part number you need is D104214. You can buy it from Gitzo's spare parts website. Here is the page for the Gitzo GT2545T and the GIG2545T tripod (same tripod - the GIG2545T comes with a head). All spare parts are listed here. The D104214 is listed somewhere near the bottom: https://www.gitzospares.com/gt2545t-parts.html

Can the legs be folded the other way, not the way it is presented (around the center column), but the normal way, with the center column fully retracted? I have a Manfrotto 410 gear head, which I'd like to keep it attached all the time, and the tripod folded the normal way.
Asked by: Victor
If the column is pulled all the way up, you can fold the legs down on the GIGT2545T so it can be stored with your Manfrotto 410 head attached.

How would an Arca Swiss D4 head pair with the 2545T?
Asked by: David
The Arca-Swiss d4 Tripod Head with FlipLock Lever Quick Release will work with the Gitzo GIGT2545T Traveler Series 2 Carbon Fiber Tripod. I would say, that a larger tripod would be a better choice. Such as the Gitzo GT5543LS Systematic Series 5 Carbon Fiber Tripod.
