393 Heavy Duty Gimbal Type Telephoto Lens Support

Thu, 10 Mar 2011 11:16:05 -0500

by: Jason Hermann

Description: The most economical option among Gimbal heads, the Manfrotto 393 Heavy Duty Telephoto Lens Support puts the tilt axis (up/down) in line with the midpoint of the lens' weight. This makes movement with a large telephoto lens easy enough to be done with one finger. Point the rig where you want, let go and it stays where you left it. Height of the lens is adjustable and there is a built-in pan base. The built-in 357 quick release assembly allows fore/aft movement within the mount for perfect 50/50 weight distribution. The 357PL quick release plate includes two 1/4"-20 screws (many large tripod collared lenses have two sockets in their collars) and one 3/8"-16 screw. The 393 is appropriate for all telephoto lenses with a tripod collar. Replaces old part number 3421.

GT5541LS Systematic 6X Carbon Fiber Tripod Legs

Mon, 07 Mar 2011 19:10:17 -0500

by: Jason Hermann

Description: The Gitzo GT5541LS Systematic 6X Carbon Fiber Tripod Legs is a tripod that uses advanced "Carbon 6X" carbon fiber material for its leg construction. This improved tubing is stronger, lighter and as resistant to torsion as its 12-layer predecessor. Versatility Systematic tripods have a unique ultra wide top platform that guarantees an incredibly stable base for any professional high performance equipment. This platform can be removed and replaced with other accessories, making this a fully customizable system. Ground Level System The tripod's legs can be spread nearly parallel to the ground and locked into position. This allows you to shoot from extremely low angles. G-Lock Design The G-Lock mechanism has been completely redesigned in order to achieve a 20% increase in rigidity, faster operation and stronger, safer locking. G-Lock's special design also provides a "gravity lock" effect. Therefore, the higher the load applied vertically to the leg, the stronger the lock. 1mm Gitzo 6X Carbon Fiber Tube Gitzo was able to develop a six-crossed multilayer carbon fiber 30% lighter than the previous 1.5mm generation that features the same exceptional performance of stability and vibration absorption and unbeatable quality. Performance Design Performance design allows the legs to be set individually at 24�, 55� and 90� to cover every angle you want to shoot.

GT-2531 Mountaineer 6X Carbon Fiber Tripod Legs - Supports 26.4 lbs (12kg)

Mon, 07 Mar 2011 19:04:48 -0500

by: Jason Hermann

Description: The Gitzo GT2531 Mountaineer 6X Carbon Fiber Tripod Legs uses advanced "Carbon 6X" carbon fiber material for its leg construction. This improved tubing is stronger, lighter and as resistant as its 12 layer predecessor. Carbon "6X" is manufactured using a complex, 3-D process weaving 6 layers of carbon fiber into smooth, solid constructed tubes. The GT2531 is ideal for use with DSLRs with 200mm lenses (up to a 300mm maximum), lightweight camcorders, and spotting scopes. It offers an excellent load capacity rating of 26.4 lbs (12kg), and good torsional rigidity. Anti-Rotation Leg (ALR) System The Anti-Rotation Leg (ALR) system makes it quick and easy to open and close the tripod. Simply turn all of the locking rings at once and the whole leg can be pulled out in seconds. G-Lock Design The G-Lock mechanism has been completely redesigned in order to achieve a 20% increase in rigidity, faster operation and stronger, safer locking. G-Lock's special design also provides a "gravity lock" effect: the higher the load applied vertically to the leg, the stronger the lock. Power Disc The Power Disc features two locking screws, one directly for the column and one for the head. This assures a rock solid connection of the whole system. This machined aluminum disc also includes the Safe Lock material, which cuts down on vibrations. Redesigned Upper Discs & Bolts This tripod features completely redesigned upper discs and bolts. The discs, which are composed of aluminum, feature a safe lock material that reduces vibrations and improves head locking. The improved high-grade stainless steel bolt design prevents it from dropping inside the column when adjusted, and makes controlling the tread length stress-free. The redesigned bolts are also corrosion and oxidation resistant. Ground-Level Set This feature allows you to remove the center column to save weight and get the camera closer to the ground. The upper disk is removed from the center column and inserted directly into the upper casting using the column hook. No tools required. In addition, this tripod has a redesigned magnesium upper casting for a further weight reduction, and a third ultra low leg spread to take full advantage of the Ground Level Set. 1mm Gitzo 6X Carbon Fiber Tube Gitzo was able to develop a six-crossed multilayer carbon fiber 30% lighter than the previous 1.5mm generation that features the same exceptional performance of stability and vibration absorption and unbeatable quality. Performance Design Performance design allows the legs to be set individually at 24�, 55� and 90� to cover every angle you want to shoot. Hook Redesigned built-in, self-locking, spring-loaded retractable hook on the bottom of the center column provides a place to hang a stabilizing counterweight such as camera, sand or water bags. Removable Leg Tips Removable self-locking rubber leg tips are interchangeable with Gitzo universal accessories such as the big foot, long spike, etc. Rapid Column Grooved Rapid center column, with locking collar, for improved stability.

GH1780QR - Center Ballhead with Quick Release

Mon, 07 Mar 2011 18:33:37 -0500

by: Jason Hermann

Description: The Gitzo GH1780QR Center Ballhead with Quick Release is a lightweight magnesium ballhead that incorporates many innovative and state-of-the-art features. It is designed to match the range of high performance tripods available from Gitzo. Not only does it guarantee a high maximum support load, but it also offers many other improved features, such as: smoothness, minimized drift angle, low gravity center, greater tilt angles, compactness, ergonomics and safety. Exceptionally smooth rotation, positive locking and rapid camera mounting are all features common to the Gitzo designed range of ballheads. The graduated base, with independent locking facilities permits perfect panoramic photography. The design of the panoramic base permits the ballhead to be used for table top or near ground level work with or without the use of a tripod. Series 1 Recommended for use with Series 1 tripods. Safe Lock Disc The Safe Lock Disc top plate, composed of a techno-polymer compound, makes it possible to control the locking torque without prematurely stopping camera rotation and ensuring that the camera is safely and effectively locked in place. Spring Lock The SADL (Spring Assisted Double Lock) combines two locking systems in one. It maximizes both locking power and ball smoothness. A high friction metal guarantees a high efficiency lock, and the PTFE bushing - controlled by a pre loaded spring - maximizes smoothness and control. Double Quick Release Safety System The quick release system consists of two pins, one fixed and one manually operated by means of a button. This design prevents heavy equipment (such as long lenses, spotting scopes, etc.) from suddenly dropping out of the head when the quick release locking knob is released. Bubble Ball The Bubble Ball is produced as a completely round hollow sphere, with an ultra thin wall, for an incredible weight reduction. The Bubble Ball also features a perfected PTFE treatment that further reduces the surface micro roughness. Leveling Bubbles The three bubble levels on the quick release assembly allow you to always keep one bubble in front of you and one on the side, both for horizontal and vertical compositions. This ensures leveling accuracy in any position and condition. Extended Tilt Range This head offers independent pan and tilt locks with 360� pan movement, +95/-13� tilt movement, and a graduated engraved panoramic base. Supplied with a 1/4"-20 camera mounting screw. <a href="http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/562406-REG/Gitzo_GH1780QR_GH1780QR_Center_Ballhead_with.html/BI/7257/KBID/7777&img=bh-logo-73x50.gif" target="_blank"> <img style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://www.bhphotovideo.com/images/affiliateimages/bh-logo-73x50.gif" border="0" alt="" width="73" height="50" /></a> <img src="http://affiliates.bhphotovideo.com/showban.asp?id=7777&img=bh-logo-73x50.gif" border="0" alt="" /> <a title="BH Photo Price" href="http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/562406-REG/Gitzo_GH1780QR_GH1780QR_Center_Ballhead_with.html/BI/7257/KBID/7777" target="_blank">Buy At BHPhoto >></a>

190CX3 Carbon Fiber Tripod Legs

Mon, 07 Mar 2011 18:19:11 -0500

by: Jason Hermann

Description: The Manfrotto 190CX3 Carbon Fiber Tripod Legs follows in the footsteps of the highly popular and award winning 190X series, but has been further improved thanks to the use of carbon fiber tubing for its legs. By using 100% carbon tube structures for its legs, the 190CX guarantees a higher load capacity and an increased height with a lighter overall weight (-20%), thanks to a completely new design, which incorporates the use of lighter components.
