Enjoy a lightweight, stable, and smooth support system with this GT1555T Series 1 Traveler Carbon Fiber Tripod with Center Ball Head Kit from Gitmo. The setup offers a 3. 1 lb. 5-section tripod system with an Arce-type compatible ball head, a load capacity of 22 lb. , and a height range of 12 to 58. 5". On the head base there is a removable safety pin that acts as a safety catch and helps prevent the plate from sliding out. If this safety pin blocks the mounting of other brand plates or prevents them from sliding out simply remove the safety pin with the key provided. Also, thanks to a reverse-leg design, the addition of the ball head does not add to the folded length of 14".
