FS: Gtizo G1228 Mountaineer Reporter carbon fiber tripod, $325. In excellent-plus condition showing minor signs of use (mostly just marks on the rubber feet where the tripod touches the ground). There are no scratches on the carbon fiber. This is a remarkably rigid tripod capable of holding most 35mm & medium format gear and even some lighter field 4x5 cameras. The working height is 12.6" to 60.6" with a load capacity of 17.6 lbs. The folded length is 21.3" and it weighs only 3.4 lbs. Vibration reduction is wonderful, it is light enough to take everywhere and goes up and down very quickly. If you use 35mm and medium format gear and are looking for the ultimate in an ultra-light tripod of backpacking size, the 1228 is ideal. Other features:
• Stainless steel weight hook at the base of the center column
• Three position leg spread detents
• 1/4" and 3/8" (reversible) head mount stud
• Fits comfortably on most camera backpacks
Price of $325 includes Paypal fees and shipping within CONUS
