Transcript
accessories low level kits column adapter for additional disc These low level column kits are of intermediate length between the standard center columns supplied with tripods and the very short columns previously supplied as separate accessories. Their lengths are defined to achieve the lowest shooting angle with legs not extended but opened to the widest angle. Column kits are in Carbon 6X tube and also incorporate the components for the Gitzo Ground Level Set: machined aluminum Safe Lock upper disc, new reversible screw and new retractable hook. This is the most convenient way to update previous carbon fiber, basalt and aluminum Gitzo tripods with the Ground Level Set feature. These adapters let you fit a head or accessory (bracket, lateral arm etc.) to the bottom of the center column without reversing it and thus without removing the top head and equipment. Adapters come with the new solid aluminum Safe Lock disk in different diameters and the new 1/4” – 3/8” reversible screw.

Nevertheless, there are some tripod and head combinations that have become very popular - setting a standard among birdwatchers, video, and photographic professionals. This section illustrates a few of the most successful GT3540L Series 3 Carbon 6X tripod (page 23) and G1378M Series 3 center ball head (page 37) combinations, but of course we always suggest you look for the ideal head and tripod combination for your own style and needs. Heads and tripods are matched together by Series number (for example Series 2 heads are perfect for Series 2 tripods). For some applications or personal preferences, you can match a lower Series head with a higher Series tripod (for example a Series 1 head with a Series 2 tripod).

products are available for years... we can often still repair tripods that are as much as 25 years old. special features carbon tube - 6X multilayer technology longitudinal fiber layers Gitzo 6X is a high density tube made of top quality ultra thin (7µm) carbon fibers (a 28 mm tube contains 1.500.000 carbon fibers) in a unique structure of 6 crossed layers that minimizes weight yet maximizes rigidity, vibration absorption and performance. In order to optimize the weight to strength ratio, we vary the wall thickness of 6X tube according to tripod series: tubes for series 00, 0 and 1 are 1mm thick, tubes for series 2 are 1.2mm thick, series 3 tubes measure 1.3mm, series 4 1.4mm and series 5 1.5mm. All 6X tubes feature built-in our Anti Leg Rotation system (ALR). basalt - a revolutionary composite Basalt fibers are made of basalt rock which is crushed and melted (at 1500°C or 2735°F). The fibers are then transformed into a tube with the same technology used for carbon fiber. Basalt tubes are engineered to match Gitzo performance standards and maintain most of the features of 6X carbon fiber: high thermal and dimensional stability, light weight (20% less than aluminium). Basalt tube uses a 1.2mm thick, 3 crossed layer structure with built-in Anti Leg Rotation (ALR). Basalt offers an intermediate performance level between traditional aluminum and 6X tubes. On www.gitzo.com you can find exploded views of Gitzo products with spare parts reference numbers. crossed fiber layers 4 ground level set heads safe grip This new feature allows you to remove the center column to save weight and get the camera closer to the ground. Uses existing components: the upper disc with reversible 1/4 - 3/8 bolt and the column hook assembly: Remove column and fix the disk directly to the upper g using g the column hook. No tools needed. casting (See page 6) 6 safe grip Safe Grip is a material that gives a safer lock between your camera and the head plate, preventing the camera from moving or slipping. It is used on quick release plates and in applications where the camera equipment is screwed to the support to reduce pivoting and twisting. 2 G-Lock the process 1 3 crossed fiber layers molten rock basalt basalt multi layer rock fiber tube G-Lock safe lock G-Lock is the new Gitzo leg locking system. The locking mechanism has been completely redesigned in order to achieve a 20% increase in rigidity, faster operation and stronger, safer locking. G-Lock’s special design also provides a “gravity lock” effect: the higher the load applied vertically to the leg, the stronger the lock. (See page 7) longitudinal fiber layers safe lock Safe Lock is a special techno polymer that maximizes locking torque and equipment stabilisation. It is used on the upper discs of tripods and heads, and in applications where the equipment is rotated and screwed onto the support to eliminate micro movements and vibration. 2 rapid column rapid column The center column locking collar above the tripod shoulder makes it easier to adjust the column quickly. Series 1 and above are built with an anti-rotation grooved center column for improved stability. weight comparison of tripod tube materials 100 100 separate pan control separate pan control friction control friction control 90 When using a ball head, the ability to lock and unlock the panoramic movement independent of front-back or lateral tilt movements is convenient for panoramic photography and when a high level of control is required. 80 Gitzo has launched a new aluminum tube: 30% lighter than its predecessor, 1.2 mm thick and with built in Anti Leg Rotation system (ALR). It features a brushed matte black finish that improves leg locking performance and minimizes light reflection. For the cast components, Gitzo uses top quality aluminum alloys and gravity casting - more expensive than pressure casting, but able to guarantee that components are free from internal air bubbles that could compromise solidity and durability. 70 70 60 55 50 40 35 30 reversible column reversible column ALR ALR 20 The rapid column can easily be inverted for an alternative shooting angle or low level macro work. By fine tuning the freedom of movement of the head, friction control makes the head slower and more precise or faster and looser. This feature also helps to make using heavy equipment or long lenses safer. On ball and fluid head models without separate friction controls, slowly adjusting the lock knobs gives similar results. 10 0 aluminum soulid 238® - the new generation soulid 238® key features After Carbon Fiber, Magnesium, Basalt and 6X, Gitzo carries on pioneering the camera support industry: the newly developed Soulid 238, specifically engineered for our camera support applications, is a high tech compound using an exclusive mix of techno polymers which give performance indicators that lie between those of metals and composite materials. As strong as magnesium but 30% lighter, with the same thermal and dimensional stability of composites, Soulid 238 sets a new standard for lightness and compactness. • • • • • In 1996 Gitzo was the first to use Magnesium in camera supports. Magnesium comes in different grades and Gitzo only uses material of the highest grade quality.

This feature greatly increases a head’s versatility and is particularly appreciated by left handed users. levelling bubble This built-in accessory allows you to hang a stabilizing weight (e.g. a full camera bag or a sand/water bag) from the bottom of the tripod center column.
