The Gitzo G1340 is a sturdy, all-metal tripod that extends to more than 150cm. There is no centre column- this tripod is equipped with a flat plate head mount- but that's still pretty tall! Not many concessions to portability here: this is a tripod from the olden days, when everyone was 7 feet tall and had to punch mammoths into dinner, so it weighs almost 3kg and it's about 72cm long when collapsed. In excellent condition, with only minor paint wear. Supports up to approximately 10kg.
