Accessory Type: Tripods
Description
GT3540L
When Gitzo launched the Mountaineer tripods in 1994, they were the World’s first carbon fiber tripods. Ever since then they have set the standard for performance and quality. The main feature of the range is the new 6X carbon fiber tube, made of a unique structure of 6 crossed layers that maximises rigidity, vibration absorption and lightweight performance. 6X tube has a high density structure made of top quality ultra-thin carbon fibers (7μm or 0.007 mm). Built-in Anti Leg Rotation is now a feature of the whole carbon fiber range. Mountaineer tripods have been further improved with features and details that increase performance, versatility and quality.

Intended use
 Scaled for professional equipment, medium format and DSLRs with 300mm lens up to 400mm maximum. High maximum load capacity and outstanding torsional rigidity, Series 3 tripods are available in 3- and 4-section models at standard, eye level and overhead heights. Series 3 Carbon 6X tripods are surprisingly lightweight and offer a good safety margin that makes them popular alternatives to series 2 tripods.

Main advantages
 G-Lock is our leg locking system that increases system rigidity by 20% and allows quicker and stronger leg locking. We’ve added a solid machined aluminium upper disc with a new Safe Lock material that cuts vibration and improves grip between tripod and head. The upper disc can also be fitted directly to the upper casting, removing the center column for ground level photography or to save weight. All new Mountaineer tripods come with a convenient anti-dust bag for storage and packing.
