Gitzo Mountaineer Series 3 Carbon Fiber Tripod

Series 3 tops the Mountaineer range. The leg tubes step 25.3 to 32.9 mm, the rated safety payload is 25 kg, and the 3-section GT3532 still comes in at 1.88 kg. This is the size to reach for with a 300 mm or 400 mm lens, a cine body, or any load where the picture shows the vibration.

G-lock Ultra collars, three-position angle selectors and a removable, reversible rapid centre column carry over from the smaller series. Minimum height is 16 cm with the column pulled and folded length is 64 cm. The 4-section GT3542 packs shorter; the GT3542L adds leg length for photographers who work with the centre column down.
