Rated 5 out of 5

Wonderful, sturdy tripod

Great, sturdy tripod the carbon fiber is beautiful and lightweight. The ball head is very well made and stays secure at all angles. Wish it were a bit taller when fully extended, but then it would be heavier and larger when folded.

Workmanship is lacking a bit

Received the tripod and ball head. Found a knob on the ball head has a small defect in the rubber. Otherwise, the whole set up is very compact, light, and sturdy. I immediately ordered a replacement knob from Gitzo just in case the rubber wears out.

Gitzo Traveler Kit Tripod Series 0.

The GK0545T-82TQD is a Traveler tripod/head kit comprising the GT0545T, the lightest carbon fiber tripod in the range - and the GH1382TQD Center Ball Head.

The Gitzo GT0545T Series 0 Traveler Carbon Fiber Tripod is an ultra-compact, 4-section support with an 180° leg folding system pioneered by Gitzo that enables its legs to reverse-fold around the center column and an optional ball head in such a way that it folds down to 36.5 cm. With its leg angles spread and the included short center column inserted, the tripod goes lower for low-angle or macro shots.

Carbon eXact tubing legs for superior strength and stiffness

The tripod features Carbon eXact tubing legs for superior strength and stiffnessin a slimmer size, and “Traveler G-lock” - a travel-size version of Gitzo’s G-lock, specifically designed to ensure security in reduced sizes. It comes with its own shoulder strap and its specially-designed compact rubber feet can easily be replaced if necessary.

The GH1382TQD Center Ball Head Series 1 Traveler is the slimmest tripod head in the Gitzo professional tripod head range. This model features independent pan lock. It provides uncompromising ball smoothness and is constructed with high-quality, high-resistance steel and aluminium components. The GH1382TQD Center Ball Head is supplied with a short, Arca-Swiss compatible plate (GS5370SD) and is also perfect with all Gitzo's D profile plates. Its quick-release plate is kept locked with a screw-knob and a bubble level helps photographers keep a straight horizon. This tripod head fits most Arca-Swiss style plates from other brands.

Features.

  • Carbon eXact - stronger legs: Carbon eXact tubes are stiffer than the predecessors' Carbon 6X tubes, as they include HM (High Modulus) carbon fiber, and have larger tube diameters.
  • Traveler G-lock: is a new, compact leg lock system dedicated to Traveler Tripods.Its space efficiency makes it possible to have taller tripods with compact folded lengths. The new, curved external form gives good grip, while the internal O-ring achieves achieves softer operation and reduces dust and grit entering the locks.
  • Series 0. (top leg diameter 21.7mm): The slimmest Series 0 is added to the Traveler family for the first time. With its slim leg tubes, it is the lightest Traveler tripod, but thanks to the stiff Carbon eXact tubes it is surprisingly rigid. A 4-section tripod with short closed length and short extended height.
  • Short column included for faster switching to ground level position
  • New feet: space saving, stable, and easy to replace in case they get worn out.
  • Shoulder strap included - convenient switching between carrying and shooting
