The Gitzo 3 Way Fluid Head comes with a stiff and ultra-light magnesium body, weight less than 1kg and can safely support a payload of up to 13kg. Patented retractable handles make it the perfect head to carry on outdoor adventures.
Equipped with an independent fluid cartridge for each axis. Ensures the silky smooth and seamless movements without stick-slip. Its ergonomic handles allow accurate and effortless composition.
It features a quick release holder with which the GS5370DR plate (7cm rubberised Arca-Swiss compatible plate included) can be easily released. The width of the quick release holder can be adjusted using the side screw to make it compatible with other plates. To fix-in a plate (and camera ) just a single firm pressing down is needed against the quick release holder. Also the new 90° rotatable plate holder allows greater working versatility and framing. Not only does it helps switch from portrait to landscape, it also makes it very easy to shoot overhead and below. This rotation prevents collision with tripods like the Systematic, which have a larger spider.
The smart rotating sprit level supports accurate framing on all axes. The spirit level can easily be repositioned to suit the camera’s position.
The 3 Way Fluid Head was designed respecting Gitzo’s unmistakably elegant and clean style, which represents the industry’s standard for excellence.
It is a perfect match with Mountaineer tripod. The Carbon eXact tubes has maximised rigidity and image stability, optimised the fibre composition for each tube size. Together with the 3 Way Fluid Head, it is an ultimate kit for photographer.
