Gitzo Mini Traveler Tripod
I was super pumped to buy the Gitzo Mini Traveler Tripod because I really liked the head design with the fixing ring instead of the usual side knob. But, when I finally got it, I was let down to see that the head wasn't as stable as I thought it would be. The connection rod between the ball and attachment plate was thinner and longer than expected, which made my camera shake too much, and it was really annoying. I think Gitzo should think about making a smaller head with a fixing ring and ball coating like their Traveler series 1 head, but without the Arca Swiss-like attachment plate. Overall, the tripod itself is decent, but they definitely need to work on the head design.
My Experience with Gitzo
As a client of Gitzo, I have been extremely impressed with the quality and durability of their products. I have been using their tripods for photography for several years now, and they have never let me down. The craftsmanship is top-notch and they are built to last.
I also appreciate the wide range of options they offer, from lightweight travel tripods to heavy-duty options for professional photographers. Their customer service is also excellent. Any time I have had a question or concern, they have been quick to respond and helpful in finding a solution.
Overall, I highly recommend Gitzo to any photographer looking for a reliable and high-quality tripod.Gitzo traveler tripod purchase
I just got myself the Gitzo traveler tripod and I gotta say, I'm really happy with it. It's super light and small, but still super sturdy. I love the design and the quality of the materials. The only thing I'm not a big fan of is the screw clamp on the Arca clamp - I'd prefer a lever clamp instead. But I'm starting to get used to it and might not even bother changing it in the end. Overall, I'm pleasantly surprised with how solid and reliable this tripod is, especially when it's fully extended. It's quickly become my top choice over my heavier Manfrotto tripod because of how much lighter it is.
Tripod replacement
I had to get a new tripod 'cause my old one was a beast - too huge and heavy. I spent a lot of time checking out options and ended up going with this new one 'cause it's more compact and looked like it was just what I needed. Found it on the website for a killer deal and it got here crazy fast. Whether you're a hardcore photographer or just like snapping pics for fun, I can't recommend this tripod enough - it's solid as a rock and really well-made. I'm sticking with this brand, no doubt about it!
Mountaineer series 3 long tripod with ballhead and Gimbal head
I've been using the Mountaineer series 3 long tripod with ballhead and Gimbal head for a while now, and I've gotta say, the quality is top-notch. This tripod has never failed me in all the years I've had it. It's durable, stable, and performs exceptionally well. I've noticed that a lot of other pros in the industry use Gitzo tripods like the Studex and Reporter models, which really says something about the brand's reliability.
Tripod purchase
At first, I was super annoyed that my order didn't go through. Turns out, the reason was because I totally messed up and put in the wrong card info. Once I fixed my mistake, my tripod showed up in just a few days.
Traveler II Tripod and Legende Backpack
I recently bought the Traveler II Tripod and Legende Backpack, and they were even better than I expected. The tripod is so stable, light, and adjustable, it's a breeze to use and carry around. And the backpack is top-notch, made with really good materials, and has plenty of room for all my gear, including the tripod. Overall, these items are high-quality and have been super reliable for my photography. Dealing with the company was easy and my order arrived quickly. I'm beyond happy with these Gitzo products.
New tripod for landscapes with big lens
I was in need of a new tripod for snapping pictures of wide landscapes with my camera. The folks at the store were super helpful and recommended the Systematic version without the middle column. This choice saved me some cash and it's lighter, making it easier to lug around. Additionally, when I whip out my big lens, there's fewer vibrations and the tripod sits lower to the ground, perfect for capturing ultra wide angle shots. I couldn't be happier with my buy!
Tripod purchase
I just got this new tripod and let me tell you, it's been awesome so far. Ordering was a breeze, got here quick, and came in good shape. The tripod itself is solid, the leg locks are sturdy. And let me tell you, it extends super tall compared to other tripods, which is perfect for my photography. I've been using it to take pictures of birds flying around and it's made a huge difference.
Tripod purchase
I ordered this tripod online and ran into some trouble with the discount code not working at first. But, after sending an email, they fixed the issue within 2 days. The tripod made its way to me in the Netherlands just 4 days after I placed the order. It's a really good product, awesome quality, and has been working great for me. All in all, I'm super happy with my purchase.
Tripods and monopod
Gitzo is seriously the bomb for photographers! If you want your pics to look super profesh, you gotta go with Gitzo. I actually own 4 of their products - two tripods, a brand new monopod, and even a tripod from way back in 1980 (made in France). Can you believe they're all still in awesome shape and work like a charm? I totally swear by Gitzo, no doubt about it.
Tripod purchase with good discounts
Gitzo tripods are pretty expensive, but they're totally worth it because the quality is amazing. I spotted some really great deals on their website and couldn't resist ordering one. I was shocked when my tripod showed up at my doorstep less than a day later. Now that's what I call speedy service!
Tripod order
I just ordered a tripod from the company's website, but I ran into a big problem with the delivery. Even though I got an email saying my order had been sent out, the tripod never showed up at my house. I spent weeks going back and forth with customer service through emails, and it seemed like the courier got mixed up which caused the delivery to mess up. It was really annoying having to deal with all of this, especially since I was so excited for my new tripod to arrive.
Camera bag purchase
I'm a professional photographer, so I was really looking forward to getting my hands on this camera bag. I mean, I knew it was gonna cost a pretty penny, so I had pretty high hopes for it. The quality and design were on point, no complaints there. But man, was I bummed to see that there was no strong, comfy extra handle to help with lugging around all my heavy gear on those quick trips. It was a total letdown for me 'cause I'm always going from place to place with my equipment, and having a reliable handle would've made my life so much easier.
Excellent tripod, expensive but worth it
The tripod is seriously amazing. It works perfectly and it's just so nice to use. Even though it's a bit pricey, I think it's a smart investment because it seems like it's built to last. I've used cheaper travel tripods before, but this one really stands out.
Tripod and bag purchase
I recently got this really cool tripod and bag to haul around all my camera stuff. The tripod is seriously amazing and the bag fits my camera, lenses, and laptop perfectly. The shoulder strap on the bag could use some improving, but hey, at least it looks cool. The dividers inside the bag are a bit weird though.
Expensive tabletop tripod for lightweight cameras
The little tabletop tripod is pretty pricey, but it's basically a shrunken down version of their bigger tripods, so it can handle small pinhole cameras and fixed lens mirrorless cameras just fine. But it starts to struggle with heavier cameras like the Nikon F4 and F5, especially if you slap on anything heavier than a short, lightweight lens. It's small, easy to carry around, and great as a specific tool, even though you might not use it all the time.
