Gitzo 2D fluid head

The Gitzo 2D fluid head delivers high performance for birdwatching and digiscoping enthusiasts equipped with a medium-sized spotting scope. Wildlife observation requires very specific equipment with precise characteristics that differ from traditional photo or video gear. The Gitzo 2D fluid head has been designed to meet this specific need: to satisfy the common requirements of birdwatching enthusiasts and wildlife photographers operating at short to medium distances from their subject. 

Extremely compact, the Gitzo 2D fluid head stands out for its attractive and ergonomic design. Its anti-reflective black finish provides excellent camouflage performance, an essential feature for wildlife observation. The head offers a complete set of technical features as well as an exceptional weight-to-performance ratio. Its main innovations lie in its fluid cartridge system and its high-precision internal mechanism. This original head - designed to work perfectly with Gitzo carbon tripods - offers a unique combination of performance, portability, precision, and stability. Very lightweight, the Gitzo 2D fluid head is made from rigid magnesium. It weighs only 600 grams and can support a load of up to 6 kilograms. An ideal outdoor solution, it makes no compromises between performance and portability. 

In addition to its exceptional fluidity guaranteed by its high-quality engineering and assembly, the 2D fluid head includes a large rubberized quick-release plate compatible with Arca-Swiss as well as a sophisticated, adjustable, and precise counterbalancing system - which allows you to stabilize and perfectly balance your photographic equipment and capture images that are both sharp and precise. The new Gitzo 2D fluid head makes it easy to take pictures of moving subjects and guarantees unparalleled precision thanks to its fluid cartridges that harmonize your movements, even large ones, to minimize vibrations or jolts during observation and shooting. Finally, switching from photography to video recording is ultra-quick: the integrated guiding handle ensures simple setup thanks to its adjustable angle and reversible control suitable for both right and left-handed users. In line with the values of elegance and simplicity that have established Gitzo products' reputation, this 2D fluid head meets the highest standards of excellence.
