The Gitzo GIGT1555T Traveler Series 1 Carbon Fiber Tripod is a compact support system with legs that fold around the centre column and optional head. These reverse-folding legs contribute to the tripod's folded length of just 35.5 cm. It extends to 138 cm high and can hold up to 10 kg worth of gear.

The tripod employs Carbon eXact tubing for added strength and stiffness compared to the Carbon 6X tubes. Traveller G-lock is a pared-down version of Gitzo's G-lock, specifically designed for the Traveler tripods to reduce overall size. These legs feature space-saving feet that fit the Traveler series' compact design. A shoulder strap is included for easy carrying.

The Gitzo GH1382TQD Series 1 Traveler Center Ball Head is an Arca-type compatible head that is an ideal match for Traveler Series 0 and 1 tripods. It holds up to 11 kg and weighs 0.4 kg. The head has a separate lock for the 360° panning and another to control the movement of the ball. A tungsten disulfide coating on the ball helps keep the ball movement smooth and minimizes stick-slip. A screw-knob lock tightens down on the included quick-release plate and a bubble level helps you maintain straight horizons in your images.
