Built for Strength and Stability
The Gitzo GK2542-82QD Mountaineer Kit combines precision engineering with the confidence of carbon fiber construction. At its core is the GT2542 Series 2 tripod, crafted with Carbon eXact tubing that enhances rigidity without adding unnecessary weight. With four leg sections and a top diameter of 29mm, it delivers rock-solid stability for DSLRs and telephoto lenses up to 300mm, making it a trusted companion in demanding shooting conditions.
Adaptable Design for Every Angle
From sweeping landscapes to ground-level perspectives, the Mountaineer tripod is designed to meet every creative challenge. The rapid center column can be removed or reversed in seconds, letting you get low to the ground for unique viewpoints. Large leg-angle selectors ensure smooth adjustments, while twist-lock leg mechanisms with integrated O-rings keep dust and grit at bay, guaranteeing long-lasting reliability wherever your photography takes you.
Professional Ball Head Performance
Completing the kit is the GH3382QD Center Ball Head, a powerhouse built to handle heavier setups with ease. Its oversized ball ensures smooth, controlled movements, while the independent friction and panning locks offer fine-tuned precision. Crafted from durable steel and aluminum, this head is designed for fluid operation and maximum support, with an Arca-Swiss compatible quick-release system that keeps gear secure and aligned at all times.
Ready for Any Environment
Whether you’re shooting in the studio or braving the outdoors, the Mountaineer Kit adapts effortlessly. A stabilizer hook on the center column provides added weight for windy conditions, and interchangeable feet allow you to maintain grip on any terrain. Combined with Gitzo’s signature design and reliability, this tripod kit gives you complete confidence to focus on the shot, not your equipment.
