The Gitzo GT1550T Traveler Tripod supports cameras up to 9.9 pounds and has a maximum height with extended center column of 57.5 inches. With its remarkable ratio of compact folded length to extended open height, the Traveler is the ideal tripod to carry with you around the world. Gitzo's unique patented 180-degree folding mechanism accommodates the head inside the folded tripod legs and makes this the smallest folded tripod for its open size and number of sections. Matching this compactness with the sturdiness of lightweight carbon fiber and quick setup makes Gitzo Travelers the ultimate tripods. The GT1550T 5-Section Traveler Tripod includes a removable Gitzo G1077M Magnesium Center Ball Head that supports cameras up to 4.4 pounds. Safe Lock, a special techno polymer that maximizes locking torque, eliminates micro movements and cuts vibration.
The Gitzo GT2540LVL Leveling Tripod supports cameras up to 26.5 pounds and has a maximum height with extended center column of 67.7 inches. The Leveling tripod is the ideal support for fluid heads. It introduces a new degree of integration between head and tripod: the Leveling tripod sets the camera perfectly horizontal while the fluid head allows pan and tilt movements. Recommended for lenses up to 300mm. Series 2 Leveling tripods offer an excellent maximum load capacity and a very good torsional rigidity. Gitzo developed the revolutionary Leveling tripod for photographers who need fast setup and leveling accuracy. Inside the Leveling tripod's upper casting is a special free-rotating ball, similar to those normally used in Gitzo ball heads. The Leveling system allows the camera or scope to be set perfectly horizontal easily and quickly when working on uneven ground.
The Gitzo GT2530LVL Leveling Tripod supports cameras up to 26.5 pounds and has a maximum height with extended center column of 62.6 inches. Gitzo developed the revolutionary Leveling tripod for photographers who need fast setup and leveling accuracy. Inside the Leveling tripod's upper casting is a special free-rotating ball, similar to those normally used in Gitzo ball heads. The center column passes through this ball and can both be moved up and down, and be inclined in any direction at any angle up to 15 degrees. The inclination and vertical movements are completely independent. This patented system is extremely useful for panoramic, outdoor and wildlife photographers or for bird watching because the Leveling system allows the camera or scope to be set perfectly horizontal easily and quickly when working on uneven ground.
The Gitzo GT2941LVL Leveling Tripod supports cameras up to 22 pounds and has a maximum height with extended center column of 71.7 inches. The Leveling tripod is the ideal support for fluid heads. It introduces a new degree of integration between head and tripod: the Leveling tripod sets the camera perfectly horizontal while the fluid head allows pan and tilt movements. Recommended for lenses up to 300mm. Series 2 Leveling tripods offer an excellent maximum load capacity and a very good torsional rigidity. Basalt tubes are engineered to match Gitzo performance standards and maintain most of the features of 6X carbon fiber: high thermal and dimensional stability, light weight (20% less than aluminum). Basalt tube uses a 1.2mm thick, 3 crossed layer structure with built-in Anti Leg Rotation (ALR).
