Gitzo GK1542-82QD Mountaineer, Series 1, 4-Sections Tripod Kit In More Detail
This tripod from Gitzo is more rigid and stronger than other carbon tripods in its category and a rapid centre column is easily removed and has a reversible column mechanism. This feature transforms the legs into a ground level set-up, enabling photographers to capture low level and close-up macro shots.
The Gitzo GT1542 four-section legs are secured by G-lock Ultra twist locks, with a built-in O-ring that keeps dirt and dust out of the leg mechanism. The tripod’s top spider is newly designed for extra rigidity, and large leg angle selectors provide a broader grip-area for leg-angle adjustment. The tripod features a stabiliser hook on its centre column to add weight and increase stability when required. A wide array of heads and other accessories can easily be added via the 1/4″ and 3/8″ attachment on the upper disc.
Series 1 Mountaineer tripod range compared
Gitzo’s Mountaineer tripods are made to be extremely rigid and lightweight, combining portability with robustness for busy photographers. Mountaineer series is at the forefront of technology and include the G-lock system and a removable centre column, offering high quality performance and portability for travel.
