Key Features
- Load Capacity: 50 lb
- Height: 4.2"
- Weight: 1 lb
- Arca-Type Compatible
The lightweight 1 lb GXP Ball Head with Lever Clamp from Acratech has a 3-in-1 feature designed to have two more functions other than just your conventional ball head. The Arca-type clamp on the head is removable from its stem, and it is mountable in the reverse to the base of the ball head. With the clamp removed, the ball head's stem has the same 3/8"-16 mount as the base, which includes a reducer bushing. The clamp itself has a single bubble level that allows you to balance and level out the ball. At the same time, you can unlock the independent pan lock and rotate lenses as large as 400mm and equipment weighing up to 50 lb. Together with a laser-engraved numbered scale, you can precisely create panoramic images by turning the ball head at incremental stops.

Is the 2545T compatible with GXP and can it be folded back smoothly?
The GXP and Gitzo 2545T are a great combination and compatible. However when folding it back you have to fix the GXP in a specific position to get the legs to really fold flat. It's easier to not reverse the legs if this is a combination you'd like to go with.
