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!

Superb tripod

By RICHARD S.

Excellent, I consider this purchase for years, only sorry I didn?t make it sooner

Bring your photography to new heights with the GT2545T Traveler Series 2 4-Section Carbon Fiber Tripod with GH1382QD Center Ball Head. This professional-grade tripod kit is designed for the discerning photographer who demands strength, versatility, and portability.

The GT2545T Series 2 Traveler carbon fiber tripod stands as the pinnacle of travel-friendly support systems. Its innovative 180-degree leg folding system, a unique feature pioneered by Gitzo, allows the tripod's legs to reverse-fold around the center column and an optional ball head. This design enables the tripod to compact down to a mere 44.5cm, making it ideal for on-the-go photographers.

Designed to accommodate lenses up to 300mm, this sturdy tripod is equipped with the largest tube diameters in the Traveler range. It boasts Carbon eXact legs for unmatched strength and rigidity. The Traveler G-lock, a compact version of Gitzo's renowned G-lock, ensures your tripod remains secure, even in challenging conditions.

The tripod's versatility is further enhanced by its interchangeable rubber feet, which can be swapped with optional Gitzo feet such as spikes or large feet, depending on your shooting environment.

The GH1382QD Center Ball Head, a medium-sized professional tripod head, complements the GT2545T tripod perfectly. Despite its slim design, it is packed with features, including a friction control knob located inside the ball locking knob for precise adjustment. It offers a 360-degree independent panning lock and a ball-movement control lock, ensuring smooth and precise movements.

Constructed with high-quality, high-resistance steel and aluminum components, the GH1382QD head provides secure locking and uncompromising smoothness. It comes with a quick-release plate, kept locked with a screw-knob, and a bubble level to help photographers maintain a straight horizon.

The GT2545T Traveler Series 2 4-Section Carbon Fiber Tripod with GH1382QD Center Ball Head is more than just a tripod; it's a commitment to superior photography. Whether you're a passionate amateur or a seasoned professional, this tripod/head kit is designed to support your pursuit of perfect shots.
