Gitzo Low Profile heads are state of the art. Made of ultra light magnesium, these heads are ideal for the professional seeking the best performance, style and reliability. Low profile heads are engineered with high tech solutions to guarantee the smoothest and most precise control of all three independent axes.

 In 1996 Gitzo were the first to use Magnesium in camera supports. Magnesium comes in different grades and Gitzo only uses material of the highest grade quality. Magnesium is mainly used for heads and offers significant weight savings being 30% lighter than aluminum.

 The levelling bubble helps you to get your photographs, film or scope viewing perfectly horizontal or vertical. Gitzo’s production staff set all levelling bubbles by hand in order to ensure 100% accurate level indication.

 Safe Grip is a material that gives a safer lock between your camera and the head plate, preventing the camera from moving or slipping. It is used on quick release plates and in applications where the camera equipment is screwed to the support to reduce pivoting and twisting.

  When using a ball head, the ability to lock and unlock the panoramic movement independent of front-back or lateral tilt movements is convenient for panoramic photography and when a high level of control is required.

  The system consists of two pins, one fixed and one manually operated by means of a button, that prevent camera equipment from suddenly dropping out of the head when the quick release locking knob is released. Extremely useful with heavy equipment, long lenses and spotting scopes.
