Base and Gitzo Tripod Added Benefits
Mounted between your tripod and ballhead, this Markins tripod base enhances stability and reduces vibration1. Allowing to remove the center column, the tripod base reduces the weight of tripod, and especially, enables the tripod to get closer to the ground for macro photography.

1We have a detailed engineering study that shows a dramatic reduction in vibration. If you want a copy of PDF report, please email to us.

Keep the Convenient Hook
Provided connection tube allows to keep the convenient center hook on its place.
