This professional tripod features Carbon eXact tubes with a larger leg diameter. The diameter of the top leg segment is 32.9 mm, and the highly rigid carbon fibers in the lower leg segments make this tripod more durable, torsion-resistant, and lighter than its predecessors. The Gitzo GT3542 weighs only 1.86 kg, reaches a height of 162 cm, and can be folded down to 54 cm. This tripod is the perfect choice for professional photographers who want an extremely durable, reliable support that is light enough to carry on long outdoor excursions.

Thanks to the removable feet, it adapts optimally to any type of terrain. A wide range of tripod heads and other accessories can be easily attached via the 1/4″ and 3/8″ mounts on the mounting plate.
6. Gitzo Tripodkit Traveler
GK1555T-82TQD is a Traveler tripod/head kit comprising the 5-section GT1555T Tripod and the GH1382TQD Center Ball Head. Traveler tripods, with the 180° leg folding system pioneered by Gitzo, make more efficient use of folded space by accommodating the center column and head in between the folded tripod legs. They are now even stronger with the state-of-the-art “Carbon eXact” tubes, more space-efficient with the compact Traveler G-lock, more professional with the smooth and precise heads, and easier to carry with the supplied shoulder strap.
The tripod GT1555T has 5 sections, making it extremely compact when folded, but it is much stronger than its predecessor thanks to the stiff Carbon eXact tubes and the Traveler G-lock. It is recommended for use with 135mm lenses (200mm maximum).
The head GH1382TQD is engineered and designed with a focus on ultimate smoothness and precision of movement and locking, while being slim enough to fit between the folded legs. It does not feature the friction control knob but has an independent pan lock. It has no compromises in ball smoothness (WS2 coating) and the hardness of the external and internal components.
The head can be removed easily to attach other heads to the tripod's upper disc, but it is recommended to use the GH1382TQD head to ensure perfect fitting of the head between the folded legs.
