description

The Explorer is another of our tripods for special applications; a versatile support that opens up new shooting perspectives. Thanks to it's unconventional design, the legs can be set at any angle and moved independently while the center column tilts and rotates freely to any position. The Explorer unleashes its potential when used with a Gitzo off-center ball head, a combination that makes it the ideal tripod for creative photographers, looking for unconventional shots: close to ground, upside down or in tight or awkward spaces. Ideal applications are outdoor macro and nature photography, still life and architectural.

features

	rapid column The center column locking collar above the tripod shoulder makes it easier to adjust the column quickly. Series 1 and above are built with an anti-rotation grooved center column for improved stability.
	reversible column The rapid column can easily be inverted for an alternative shooting angle or low level macro work.
	power disc 'The new tripod upper disc is called ''Power Disc''. It is made of machined solid aluminum and it now features two locking screws, one to lock the head, the other to safely lock the disc onto the column. The ''Power Disc'' gives a rock solid connection of the whole system for additional safety and stability.'
	0-90° position leg angle Gitzo tripods feature a variety of leg openings. From one spread of series 0 to infinite angles of Explorer tripods. New series 1, 2, 3 and leveling tripods now feature an upgraded upper casting with an additional third leg spread. The three leg spreads allows you to set the tripods at three different levels (high, medium, low). The new low position allows you to take full advantage of the 'Ground Level Set.'
	Anti Leg Rotation We have introduced a new Anti Leg Rotation (ALR) system, which means the tripod can be opened in less than 15 seconds. Simply loosen all the twist locks on each leg at the same time, then pull the leg down and tighten the locks individually.
