Gitzo GT1542 Mountaineer Series 1 Carbon Fiber Tripod

Gitzo Mountaineer Series 1 (GT1542) Carbon Fiber Tripod

There is also another version of this tripod , the Gitzo GT1532 , which has three leg sections and a slightly longer transport length (62cm) than this model. Because there are fewer leg sections, the GT1532 is faster to open and close.

The GT1542 carbon fiber tripod is very light, only 1.28kg. It is therefore ideal for both nature trips and more advanced professional trips. Despite its lightness, the tripod is sturdy and can support a load of up to 10kg.

The removable center tube allows the tripod to be as low as 15 cm. The removable rubber feet can be replaced with ice/grass spikes, making the tripod stable in a variety of shooting environments. If needed, additional stability can be achieved by hanging a backpack or sandbag on the hook at the bottom of the center tube.

The GLock Ultra leg lock is quick and easy to use. An additional sealing ring makes the tripod even more durable by reducing dirt from getting between the lock and inside the legs.
