Product Description
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 maximizes rigidity, vibration absorption and lightweight performance. 6X tube has a high density structure made of top quality ultra-thin carbon fibers (7?m 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. The ground level set feature allows you to remove the center column to save weight and get the camera closer to the ground. Uses existing components: the upper disc with reversible 1/4 – 3/8 bolt and the column hook assembly: Remove column and fix the disk directly to the upper casting using the column hook. The column hook allows you to hang a stabilizing weight (e.g. a full camera bag or a sand/water bag) from the bottom of the tripod center column. Useful with long heavy lenses, on uneven ground or in windy conditions. minimum height: 6.69 in; series: 2; weight: 3.00 lbs. This replaces the Gitzo GT2540.

Product Description
The Explorer is another of Gitzo’s tripods for special applications – a versatile support that opens up new shooting perspectives. Thanks to its 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. Explorer tripods in both Carbon 6X and Basalt, feature G-Lock – Gitzo’s leg locking system that increases system rigidity by 20%, and allows quicker and stronger leg locking. Carbon 6X Explorers feature a solid machined aluminum upper disc with a new Safe Lock material. Explorer tripods also come with a convenient anti-dust bag for storage and packing. This is the best choice for DSLR or for lightweight camcorders. This series is recommended for lenses ranging from 200mm to 300mm. Series 2 offers excellent load capacity endurance, and very good torsional rigidity. Series 2 is the ideal solution for photographers looking for a solid, and yet lightweight tripod. This replaces the Gitzo GT2540EX.
