Sold! Gitzo Tripod & Gitzo Head
Sep 9, 2017 08:29:31 #
This Gitzo Tripod is genuine aluminum, not carbon fiber which I think is the biggest ripoff going as far as photo equipmment goes, but thats another story. Anyway, here are the approximate measurements:
Folded legnth, with head: 17 inches
Each leg extends 40 inches
Center post extends (in 2 sections) to 22 inches
On a scale of 1 to 10, the mechanical condition of this tripod is around 9.5. Rubber grip bands on the legs also look like they have been replaced. Other than that, cosmetically it is around a 4. That means it is about as solid as it was the day the Gitzo folks trotted it out of their factory. Figure on using it for the next 20 or 30 years then selling it to another generation fo photographers. Or pass it on as a family heirloom. On the other hand, it has been well used and has the scratches and chipped paint to prove it, so consider that if it might be a concern. Anyway, there are un-Photoshopped photos. And the $1 is there for scale and is not included.
Price:$120.00
I am located in New York City, (Downtown Manhattan) if you are in the neighborhood and want to pick it up. Otherwise shipping to anyplace in the Continental USA is a flat $10.00. I accept PayPal, Postal MO, Cash, Whatever....... Thanks!

Now, that's a tripod. I bought a Gitzo Studex 320 in excellent condition (no head or column) on UHH for $75 shipped. Bought a NIB Gitzo 2750 offset ballhead on eBay for $99 shipped. New retail on this would be over $750. It's heavy and stable enough for more than my Canon 5D Mark III with Tamron 150-600.
