Professional-grade Gitzo 240 Pro Reporter aluminum tripod paired with a Gitzo G475 off-center ball head and rapid center column. This is a classic heavy-duty support system from Gitzo’s renowned Reporter series, built for stability, durability, and field use with professional camera and lens combinations.

The 240 Pro Reporter is a 3-section aluminum tripod designed for strength and reliability. Reporter-series tripods were built for working photographers who needed rugged supports capable of handling heavier equipment and demanding shooting environments. The aluminum construction offers excellent rigidity, while the larger-diameter tubing used in the Reporter line provides improved load capacity and vibration resistance compared to lighter consumer tripods.

This tripod features a rapid center column, which allows quick height adjustments using a friction-based locking system. Rapid columns are designed for fast, smooth positioning in the field, making them ideal for event, press, wildlife, or studio work where speed and flexibility are important. 

Mounted on top is the Gitzo G475 off-center ball head, a heavy-duty vintage professional head known for its rugged construction and strong holding power. Off-center ball heads from this era were built for large cameras and lenses, using robust metal construction and simple, reliable locking controls for long-term durability. 

The tripod still has the original black pads on the legs, providing improved grip when carrying and added comfort in cold or hot conditions.

Overall, this is a solid, professional-quality Gitzo setup suitable for film or digital cameras, large lenses, studio use, or collectors of classic Gitzo equipment.

Great used condition with everything functioning smoothly and correctly.
