product description
Five-Section carbon monopod. Monopods are traditionally used at sports events and in situations where space is tight and framing speed is a key factor. The ideal monopod needs to be lightweight, extremely fast to open and close. Thanks to ALR and G-Lock, Gitzo monopods have all these features. All new monopods feature the new Gitzo belt clip. This clip, incorporated in the wrist strap, is a smart carrying solution that allows you to hang your monopod on belts or pockets.
family description
After perfecting carbon fiber and basalt monopods, Gitzo now presents two important updates to its monopod range: a new generation of aluminum monopods and a smart Series 5 Traveler Monopod. The new GM5561T Traveler Monopod is the ultimate professional monopod. It combines extreme lightweight and compactness with the highest rigidity and pay load performance standards. It has been specifically developed for the sport photographer that requires a solid support for long lenses and yet compact and easy to carry and transport. It incorporates the latest Gitzo technologies, including Power Disc, G-Lock, 6X tubing, self locking removable foot and the exclusive belt clip to satisfy the carrying needs of every sport photographer. The Aluminum monopods range has been completely revised and now feature, apart from the tubing, the same features as the top of the range 6X carbon fiber monopods, in order to offer lighter, faster and a more stable support. All aluminum models now feature our latest aluminum tube, 30% lighter than its predecessor, with Anti Leg Rotation system (ALR), 1.2mm wall thickness and brushed matt black finish for improved locking performance and minimised reflectivity. Thanks to ALR and G-Lock, monopods are now incredibly fast to operate, providing a stronger locking and an increased rigidity by 20%. The new aluminum monopods come with the exclusive Gitzo belt clip. This clip, incorporated in the wrist strap, is a smart carrying solution that allows to hang your monopod on belts or pockets. It is ideal when both hands are needed and you want to make sure not to loose your pro monopod. Another plus of the new aluminum monopods is the high quality Power Disc for a more secure locking of the head thanks to the additional locking screw. Removable rubber feet are now self locking to avoid accidental loss. All new monopods come with a convenient Gitzo display cleaner and a anti dust bag for storage and packing.
