The Gitzo GM2941 Basalt Monopod is a 4-segmented monopod that only weighs 1.2 lbs, but can support systems up to 22 lbs. By using Basalt material, the monopod is more durable and better at absorbing vibrations than aluminum models with similar dimensions. It is a tougher material than aluminum, yet it is 20% lighter.
The G-Lock locking mechanism has been completely redesigned in order to achieve a 20% increase in rigidity, faster operation, and stronger, safer leg locking. G-Lock's special design also provides a "gravity lock" effect: the higher the load applied vertically to the leg, the stronger the lock.
Features
- Anti-Rotation Leg (ALR) System: The Anti-Rotation Leg (ALR) system makes it quick and easy to open and close the monopod. Simply turn all of the locking rings at once and the whole leg can be pulled out in seconds.
- Includes a wrist strap, and foam cover on the top leg section.
