Gitzo GT2543L Mountaineer Series 2 Long, 4-Section Carbon Fibre Tripod

Versatile, with a perfect balance of rigidity and reduced weight, Series 2 is the most popular of the Mountaineer tripods. With its newly designed top casting & Carbon eXact tubes, Series 2 is a solid tripod, recommended for DSLRs with 200mm lenses (up to 300mm maximum).

The Gitzo GT2543L Mountaineer Series 2 Long, 4-Section Carbon Fibre Tripod maintains the lightweight characteristics of preceding Carbon 6X models, but is even stiffer, thanks to the fibre composition of Carbon eXact tubing. Gitzo made tube dimension optimisations that include larger diameters of lower leg sections. Don’t forget to add a  if you don’t already have one, or another suitable head for your style of shooting.

New Mountaineer tripods feature G-lock Ultra, redesigned version of Gitzo’s signature leg lock system G-lock. G-lock Ultra has even more comfortable operation and reduced risk of debris entering the tubes and locking mechanisms. It is fine-tuned for the smaller differences in tube diameter between leg sections of Carbon eXact tubes, contributing to increased stiffness of the legs.

The Ground Level Set mechanism, which lets the photographer remove the centre column to get the camera closer to the ground, has been completely redesigned for faster operation. A single simple unlocking ring under the column’s upper disc frees the column while keeping the upper disc solidly in place on the tripod, with no need to unscrew and re-fit the upper disc and hook as in previous versions.
