The Traveler tripod is the most compact professional tripod in the market. It is the right solution for photographers looking for lightweight and compactness in pure state in a professional tripod, when traveling (and flying) is a common practice. In order to achieve this “magic” Gitzo developed a unique patented 180o folding mechanism that gets rid of any space inef- ficiency in the support system. The head is now accommodated inside the folded tripod legs and this makes it the smallest folded tripod for its open size and number of sections. Matching this compactness with the sturdiness of lightweight carbon fiber and good speed in setup makes the Traveler the ultimate tripod. Two models are available, GT1550T, 5-section which includes a removable ball head (G1077M) and GT1541T, 4-section (head not included). The GT1541T is an evolution of the previous GT1540T and it now features G-Lock for a faster set up, higher torsion rigidity and pay load performance. The GT1550T maintains the classic ALR locking system in order to maximise compactness. All Traveler tripods feature the Ground Level Set that allows for low shooting positions and further weight savings. This position is achieved by fixing the head and/or disc (included) directly to the tripod top casting, thus eliminating the center column. The included aluminum upper disc features a Safe Lock, which cuts vibrations and improves the grip between tripod and head. Traveler tripods come with a convenient anti dust bag for storage and packing. The textile anti dust bag is also an answer to environmental protection, aiming to reduce the amount of plastic bags that global industry is introducing into the environment each day.

		The Traveler is the most compact carbon fiber tripod in the world. When opened, it is as tall as a standard Gitzo tripod, but thanks to its ground-breaking 180° folding mechanism, it is 25% shorter than standard when folded.
