Tripod is excellent

The ballhead and quick release plate are not satisfactory. But the tripod is stable and lightweight.

Light and Strong Gitzo Traveler

I purchased the Gitzo GT1545T Traveler Series 1 Carbon Fiber Tripod and GH1382TQD Ball Head because I am using a tripod more than I used to. I use it for control over ISO in low light, for sharper landscapes and for focus stacking. I take it when I fly or shoot in a crowd. I was not using my aluminum travel tripod faithfully so I decided to replace it with the carbon fiber Gitzo, because it is lighter, sturdier, and has an excellent ball head. The Arca Swiss style ball head is easy to use and works with all my plates and brackets. Now I carry the Gitzo Traveler and an extra lens in a day pack, with no back pain. I also own the Gitzo GT4533LSUS full size tripod. Both Gitzo tripods provide world class design and craftmanship.

Poorly designed and made Tripod

I too had this Tripod for just a few weeks when the pan knob fell off during a shoot, as well as one of the rubber feet. Note: it says rubber feet are replaceable. This is not true; one is stationary the others easily screw off (and apparently fall off). Gitzo’s customer service was horrible. I emailed several times with no response. I would return this if I could, first and last time I purchase a Gitzo product.

Would not recommen

I purchased this tripod in early July 2017 to use on a trip scheduled for October 2017. I used the tripod 5 or 6 times to get comfortable with its controls. In unlocking the pan knob in normal use the rubber ring snapped and popped off. I contacted Gitzo and the rubber ring replacement, which is not an in stock item would cost me ($) plus another ($) for shipping. Surely you jest. A tripod that is three months old, and treated very well, has parts that fail and they are not covered under warranty. I have multiple other tripods, RRS and Gitzo and have never had this happen with years of use on any of them. I'll never purchase another Gitzo product if this is the kind of quality and service I can expect from a $ tripod/head combination. Buyer beware!

By RICHARD S.

Explore the world of photography with the GT1555T Traveler Series 1 5-Section Carbon Fiber Tripod with GH1382TQD Center Ball Head, a premium kit designed for the discerning traveler and professional photographer. This kit combines the innovative GT1555T carbon fiber tripod with the precision-engineered GH1382TQD Center Ball Head to create a support system that is both sturdy and lightweight.

The GT1555T Series 1 Traveler carbon fiber tripod is a testament to Gitzo's commitment to cutting-edge technology and design. It features an ultra-compact 5-section support system with a revolutionary 180-degree leg folding system. This design allows the legs to reverse-fold around the center column and head, condensing the tripod to a mere 35.5cm for effortless storage and transportation. Ideal for use with lenses up to 135mm (200mm max.), this tripod is a versatile companion for your photography journeys.

Crafted from Carbon eXact tubing, the tripod's legs offer unmatched strength and stiffness while maintaining a slim profile. The Traveler G-lock, a compact version of Gitzo's renowned G-lock system, ensures secure leg adjustments and stability. For low-angle or macro photography, simply spread the leg angles and insert the included short center column to position your camera closer to the ground.

The tripod is equipped with specially-designed compact rubber feet that are easily replaceable, ensuring long-term durability and stability on various terrains. A comfortable shoulder strap is included for convenient carrying, allowing you to move freely as you chase the perfect shot.

The GH1382TQD Series 1 Traveler Center Ball Head is the epitome of sleekness and functionality. As the slimmest head in Gitzo's professional range, it boasts independent pan lock and is constructed from high-quality steel and aluminum components for maximum resistance and durability. The head provides an exceptionally smooth ball movement and precise control, ensuring secure locking without a friction control knob.

This high-quality carbon fiber tripod and head kit is built for the demanding photographer who values portability without compromising on performance. The Gitzo head is compatible with other plates of similar dimensions, and features a removable safety pin on the head base that acts as a safety catch to prevent accidental sliding. If needed, the safety pin can be easily removed with the provided key, accommodating a variety of brand plates.

The GT1555T Traveler Series 1 5-Section Carbon Fiber Tripod with GH1382TQD Center Ball Head is the ultimate choice for photographers who require a reliable, high-quality support system that can keep up with the rigors of travel and the demands of professional use.
