Portable carbon-fibre tripod

The Gitzo GT1555T Series 1 Traveler is a five-section carbon-fibre tripod that weighs 1.03 kg and folds to 35.5 cm. It extends to a maximum height of 138 cm and drops to a minimum height of 20 cm with the short centre column. The legs support up to 10 kg of equipment.

Photographers needing compact stability

This tripod suits photographers who want a lightweight support that fits in a carry-on bag and handles heavier camera kits up to 10 kg. It is optimised for lenses up to 200 mm and provides a low 20 cm perspective for macro work. Buyers who need a taller working height without a centre column should consider other options.

180-degree leg folding mechanism

The defining specification is the 180-degree leg folding system that reverses the five sections around the centre column. This design achieves the 35.5 cm folded length while keeping the 10 kg load capacity and 138 cm maximum height. The twist locks secure each section for rapid deployment.

Questions about this item

Will the 10 kg load capacity and 135 mm lens optimisation still give stable shots if I keep using my older, heavier DSLR body?

The tripod is rated for 10 kg and optimised for lenses up to 135 mm, so it will support a heavier DSLR body as long as the combined weight stays within the 10 kg limit.

How can I confirm the twist locks on all five leg sections are holding securely after I set the tripod up?

Extend each section until the twist locks engage firmly, then press down on the centre column; the legs should not slip or rotate under the 10 kg rated load.

Does the box include a ball head or do I need to buy one separately to use the 180-degree leg folding feature?

The tripod is sold as legs only; a compatible ball head must be purchased separately to enable the 180-degree reverse-folding around the centre column.
