GT2540EX
Accessory Type: Tripods
Description
GT2540EX
The Explorer is another of our tripods for special applications; a versatile support that opens up new shooting perspectives. Thanks to it's unconventional design, the legs can be set at any angle and moved independently while the center column tilts and rotates freely to any position. The Explorer unleashes its potential when used with a Gitzo off-center ball head, a combination that makes it the ideal tripod for creative photographers, looking for unconventional shots: close to ground, upside down or in tight or awkward spaces. Ideal applications are outdoor macro and nature photography, still life and architectural.

Intended use
 The best choice for DSLR or for lightweight camcorders. Recommended for 200mm lens, up to 300mm maximum. Series 2 offers an excellent maximum load capacity and very good torsional rigidity. Weight and size are still convenient for travelling or trekking. Available in 3- and 4-section models at standard and compact heights. Series 2 is the ideal solution for photographers that are looking for a solid and yet lightweight tripod.

Main advantages
 6X carbon fibre Explorer tripods feature G-Lock, our leg locking system that increases system rigidity by 20% and allows quicker and stronger leg locking. They also come with a new solid machined aluminium upper disc coupled with an innovative Safe Lock material that cuts vibration and improves grip between tripod and head. Explorers tripods are the ideal tool for photography students that want to explore new and original shooting perspectives. The 6X eg tubes feature Anti Leg Rotation for a quick set up and a precise length adjustment in any condition and position. It is recommended for a wide variety of photography styles and applications, including reproduction, macro, still life, architectural, advertising, original bottom up shoots and to be used in small and inaccessible places.
