It features a tailored design solution to perfectly fit an a7 and a9 camera models, helping increase grip and stability for precise framing and extraordinary composition. Thanks to its dedicated a plate, the Traveler a brings Gitzo's premium travel tripod to demanding photographers unleashing their creativity using cameras. The new black and silver finishing and new design match perfectly with the outstandingly stylish and modern aesthetic of cameras. The Traveler a is a compact lightweight travel tripod in Gitzo's distinctive high-quality design and materials. It weighs 1.43 kg, extends to 165 cm high and safely holds up to 10 kg of gear. Thanks to the 180 Degree leg-folding system pioneered by Gitzo, the Traveler a's legs reverse-fold around its centre column and head, allowing it to fold down to 43 cm. This model is recommended for use with lenses up to 135mm. With its legs spread and its short centre column inserted, the tripod goes lower for those low-angle or macro shots. Its legs are made of Carbon eXact tubing for superior strength and stiffness in a slimmer size and feature the "Traveler G-lock" - a travel-size version of Gitzo's G-lock, designed to ensure security and reduce size. The specially designed compact rubber feet ensure perfect camera stability.
