Description

The Gitzo Traveler will be your inseparable companion for every trip.
The tripod with 180° leg folding mechanism pioneered by Gitzo, is now even stronger with new carbon tubes, and easier to always bring with you.
Good trip, great shots.
Carbon eXact Stiffer than the antecedents’ tubes to maximize rigidity and image stability.
Carbon eXact tubes include High Modulus carbon fibre, and have larger tube diameters.
For example, the lowest leg section of the Series 1, 5-section tripod has a diameter of 40% larger than the predecessor.
Traveler G-lock A new, compact leg lock system particularly dedicated to Traveler Tripods.
Its space efficiency makes it possible to have taller tripods with compact folded lengths.
The new, curved external form provides good grip, while the internal O-ring achieves softer operation and reduces dust and grit entering the locks.
New Ball Head The Center Ball Heads included in the Kits (tripod+head) feature ultra-smooth WS2 ball coating and an extremely efficient locking mechanism (patent pending), while slim enough to fit between the folded legs.
Product Description The GK2545T-82QD is a Traveler tripod/head kit comprising the GT2545T Tripod and the GH1382QD Center Ball Head.
The Gitzo GT2545T Series 2 Traveler carbon fiber tripod is the strongest professional, 4-section travel support with an 180° leg folding system pioneered by Gitzo, which enables its legs to reverse-fold around the center column and an optional ball head, allowing it to fold down to 44.5 cm.
It is recommended for use with 200mm lenses (300mm maximum).
With its leg angles spread and the included short center column inserted, the tripod goes lower for low-angle or macro shots.
This tripod has the largest tube diameters in the Traveler range.
It features Carbon eXact legs for superior strength and stiffness and the “Traveler G-lock” – a travel-size version of Gitzo’s G-lock, specifically designed to ensure security in more compact tripods.
Its specially-designed rubber feet are easily interchangeable with Gitzo’s optional feet (e.
g.
spikes, large feet).
It comes with its own shoulder strap for comfortable carrying.
It is the ideal tripod for professional photographers who use longer lenses or require the highest stability on the move.
The kit also includes the GH1382QD Series 1 Center Ball Head, Gitzo’s medium-sized professional tripod head Despite its slim design, it is packed with features, including a friction control knob located inside the ball locking knob for precise adjustment.
It has a 360° independent panning lock and a ball-movement control lock.
It provides uncompromising ball smoothness and is constructed with high-quality, high-resistance steel and aluminium components.
The supplied quick-release plate is kept locked with a screw-knob and a bubble level helps photographers keep a straight horizon.
The GH1382QD is a perfectly balanced, versatile tripod head engineered to ensure the ultimate smoothness and precision of movement and secure locking.
Supplied with the short, Arca-Swiss compatible plate (GS5370SD) and compatible with all Gitzo’s D profile plates and most Arca-Swiss style plates by other brands.
The GK2545T-82QD carbon fiber tripod/head kit is the perfect choice for passionate and professional photographers looking for sturdy, reliable support for flawless travel photography.
