Gitzo GT1544T Traveler Tripod (Black)
Description
The GT1544T is a strong, stable yet extremely compact and lightweight carbon
fiber tripod, designed to balance uncompromising professional support with
ease of transport for traveling photographers. Gitzo’s innovative Traveler
design is more compact than a standard tripod structure because the 4-section
legs turn 180° so that, when folded, they completely enclose the center column
locking mechanism and the column itself. Despite its short folded length, the
GT1544T opens to a practical working height for everyday use. The GT1544T can
be used with any head. For those who require extreme compactness, a Gitzo
Traveler Series 1 ball head (sold separately) is recommended, since it too
fits within the tripod’s own folded dimensions and enveloped by the legs. The
GT1544T legs are made from the same high-performance rigid and lightweight
Gitzo 6X carbon fiber tubing as is used on Gitzo Mountaineer and top-of-the-
range Systematic tripods, with G-Lock leg locking rings for faster set-up and
positioning, and magnesium castings to help keep weight to an absolute
minimum. This is a Gitzo Series 1 tripod. Technical specifications: Load
