Gitzo Series 2, Leveling Reporter 6X Carbon Fiber 3 Section Tripod Legs with G-Lock, Maximum Load 26.4 lbs. Maximum Height 62.6"

• Gitzo developed the revolutionary Leveling tripod for photographers who need fast set up and leveling accuracy. Inside the Leveling tripod's upper casting is a special free-rotating ball. The center column passes through this ball, and can both be moved up and down, and be inclined in any direction at any angle up to 15 degrees. • The inclination and vertical movements are completely independent. This patented system is extremely useful for panoramic, outdoor, and wild life photographers or for bird watching, because the Leveling system allows the camera or scope to be set perfectly horizontal easily and quickly, when working on uneven ground. • G-Lock is Gitzo's leg locking system that increases system rigidity by 20%, and allows quicker and stronger leg locking. Gitzo has added a new lightweight high quality technopolymer upper disc to the Basalt model, while the Carbon 6X tripods feature a solid machined aluminum upper disc with a new Safe Lock material that cuts vibration, and improves grip between tripod and head. • All leveling tripods also feature the new ground level set. The center column is removable, and the upper disc can be fitted directly to the upper casting. Requiring only a few seconds of set-up, this clever built-in solution dramatically increases the tripods' flexibility allowing for ultra low shooting angles, weight reduction, and increased stability. All leveling tripods come with an anti-dust bag for storage and packing. • The Leveling tripod is the ideal support for fluid heads. It introduces a new degree of integration between head and tripod. The Leveling tripod sets the camera perfectly horizontal, while the fluid head allows pan and tilt movements.
