Gitzo GT2532 Mountaineer Series 2 Carbon Fiber Tripod

The new GITZO GT2532 Mountaineer Series 2 Carbon Fiber Tripod is beautifully made. The 3 (three) leg sections make it very fast to set up and take down. I am using a RRS BH-55 ballhead. This combination is perfect. Make sure you purchase the GITZO GC3101 padded tripod bag to go with it.

As a tripod it's very sturdy, doesn't wobble at all and I tried different scenarios to check that, even tapping on one of the legs and there are no teethering/wobbling at all. Very easy to use. Tried it in the field and wow is it handy.

I bought this tripod to replace a Gitzo metal tripod. It was a shorter tripod to keep the weight down so I had to do a lot of bending over. I also had to use both the long and short center posts with it and swap the ball head all the time.

This is my first tripod with twist locks for the leg sections. The G Lock Ultra leg locks are fast and easy to use. 1/4 turn to release, 1/4 turn to lock - super. The legs can be set independently at three different angles. I have used all three and combinations of the three.

Excellent tripod. Easy set up and take down. A slight twist locks and unlocks. The locks are sized appropriate. They feel like they will last a long time. Very stable. Handles my D810 with 80-400 with ease. The 6x carbon is smooth and just pretty to look at.

Very good and functional. Instructions could be better nut the tripod works well.

Good light weight tripod. Three sections for fast set up. The feet of the tripod screw in andOn the third use I noticed a loose foot, screwed it in tighter and found that I'd already lost another foot. For such an expensive tripod this style attachment is cheap for field use.

An excellent choice. A very sturdy tripod. A must have one.

Great combination of light weight and stiffness. Quality starts from the box and will not disappoint when you open it. However if you think about traveling then GT1532 will meet you expectations better. But that size finally made my choice towards 2532. Gitzo or something else? Only Gitzo.

I use this tripped for a **mm spotting scope and it is a wonderful combination of stability at high magnification and light weight.
