structed using a dual “screw thread and
glue” jointing (H.I.S) technology for dura-
bility and reliability.
◆ “Performance” tripods are fitted with sliding
stops, which enable the legs to be individually
set at different angles, for more flexibility
and low angle shooting.
◆ On rapid center column tripods, the center
column locking collar makes it easy to adjust
the column quickly. It can also easily be
inverted for an alternative shooting angle or
low level macro work.
◆ Telescopic leg extensions and center
columns have anti-slippage rubber cush-
ioned locking rings and “wingnut” locks.
◆ On geared models, the gear mechanism
allows you to precisely adjust the height of
the column. An anti-rollback system keeps
heavy equipment safely supported, and can
be disengaged while winding down.

changeable with Gitzo universal accessories
