A quality tripod is an essential accessory for any photographer, professional or amateur. The Gitzo GT1542 Mountaineer Tripod satisfies even the most demanding users. This is a standard height tripod, suitable for lenses with a focal length of 135mm. Tripod legs are made of Carbon eXact carbon tubes, which is a technology that significantly increases the rigidity and strength of the tripod. The Ground Level Set system with its control ring allows you to shoot without a center pole low over the terrain. A quick release reversible center post is included. The legs are adjustable in three angles, and there are also special G-Lock Ultra locks.
The revolutionary technology of the construction the tubes from carbon fiber provides the greater rigidity and strength of the tripod. Carbon eXact tubes are unique compared to previous construction methods because their fibre compositions vary according to the pipe's diameter. In practice this means that pipes with a lower diameter use a fibre diameter of only 5mm. This makes it possible to use more fibers, which increases the strength of the tube.
The tripod is equipped with unique G-Lock Ultra locks, which combine perfect ergonomics and extreme strength. They speed up handling and prevent the penetration of dirt into the mechanism. The Gravity Lock works with weights, which vertically acts on the tripod legs. The greater the load, the stronger the lock.
The Anti-Leg-rotation system is useful against leg turning and facilitates the folding and unfolding of the tripod. It works on the principle of locking sleeves that allow you to deploy and put away the tripod in 15 seconds.
The Ground Level Set enables the handling of a central bar and shooting low to the ground without removing the camera. The result is a simple locking disc that releases a central rod, while the upper disc with the mounted head and camera remains firmly in place. For users, the benefit is clear - simplified and streamlined work.
