The Gitzo series 5 GM5561T Traveler monopod is the distillation of the most advanced Gitzo technology into exceptionally compact dimensions. It features ultra-light Carbon 6X tube, ALR, G-Lock, 6-section construction and Gitzo's Power Disc. It can be fully extended in just 6 seconds, allowing an unsurpassed flexibility of use. The Traveler monopod can be conveniently stored in any bag and it is recommended for 'frequent flyer' photographers. The new Traveler monopod incorporates the Gitzo belt clip, a smart carrying solution that allows you to hang your monopod on belts or pockets. The smart carrying solution is the ideal complement for this nearly pocket size pro support. Monopods are traditionally used at sports events and in situations where space is tight and framing speed is a key factor. The ideal monopod needs to be lightweight, extremely fast to open and close. Thanks to ALR and G-Lock, Gitzo monopods have all these features.

    What more could you want from a monopod?

    By Just My Opinion

    from Hertfordshire

    See all my reviews

    Pros

    • Easy to use
    • Fast
    • Good quality product
    • Lightweight
    • Quiet

    Cons

      Best Uses

      • Sports

      If you are looking for an extremely lightweight, easy to use, fast monopod then look no further.

      Yes it may be more expensive than other monopods (and tripods come to that), but I definately think it's worth paying the extra for.

      This monopod is so light it can be hung from your trousers or put inside your camera bag and with the compact minimum height of 41.5cm and weight of 750g you would hardly know it's there.

      This monopod extends to a maximum height of 155.5cm and has 6 leg sections which are extremely easy and fast to open and close. It can be opened fully in just 6 seconds - giving you the best chance possible to capture that unmissable shot. Combine this with the fact that it supports a whopping 25kg and I'd say this is the only monopod you would ever need.

      Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
