A great choice for professional equipment, medium format and DSLRs with 300mm up to 500mm lenses. Offers outstanding torsional rigidity and, thanks to the new Carbon 6X ALR tube, is now surprisingly lightweight and fast to operate. Available heights: baby and standard for lightweight transportability, eye level for shooting precision and comfort, over head ideal for weddings, concerts, architectural and sport events. A 75mm bowl adapter video tripod is available (GT3531LSV).
- GROUND LEVEL SET
This new feature allows you to remove the center column to save weight and get the camera closer to the ground. Uses existing components: the upper disc with reversible 1/4 - 3/8 bolt and the column hook assembly: Remove column and fix the disk directly to the upper casting using the column hook. No tools needed.
- G-LOCK
G-Lock is the new Gitzo leg locking system. The locking mechanism has been completely redesigned in order to achieve a 20% increase in rigidity, faster operation and stronger, safer locking.G-Lock's special design also provides a "gravity lock" effect: the higher the load applied vertically to the leg, the stronger the lock.
- LEG ENDS
All tripods and monopods in Series 1 and above are provided with removable rubber feet. This feature allows you to easily change worn out rubber feet or to fit other accessories, such as spiked feet or snow/sand shoes. (4 sections tripods in Series 1 are excluded because the final leg section is too narrow to fit these ends).
- POWER DISC
The new tripod upper disc is called "Power Disc". It is made of machined solid aluminum and it now features two locking screws, one to lock the head, the other to safely lock the disc onto the column. The 'Power Disc" gives a rock solid connection of the whole system for additional safety and stability.
