Gitzo GT0531 - Series 0 Weekend Mountaineer Carbon Fiber 6X Tripod 3 Leg Sections with G-lock

When Gitzo launched the Mountaineer tripods in 1994, they were the World's first carbon fiber tripods. Ever since then they've set the standard for performance and quality. The main feature of the range is the new 6X carbon fiber tube, made of a unique structure of 6 crossed layers that maximises rigidity, vibration absorption and lightweight performance. 6X tube has a high density structure made of top quality ultra-thin carbon fibers (7?m or 0.007 mm). Built-in Anti Leg Rotation is now a feature of the whole carbon fiber range. Mountaineer tripods have been further improved with features and details that increase performance, versatility and quality.

Recommended for compact cameras, lightweight camcorders and DSLRs with 75mm lens or 135mm maximum. Given its small size and extremely light weight, this tripod offers a interesting compact solution for the latest generation of small scale digital equipment. The G-lock system and improved tube structure give good performance in terms of torsional rigidity.
