Hi there,

It's been a long time I haven't been here but I'm coming back with a question.

I plan to buy a new tripod and I was thinking of going for the Gitzo GT2541. But now, I'm hesitating between the explorer version and the mountaineer version (i.e the GT2541EX or GT2541).

Has anybody one of them, both, tried them, any opinion on the subject ?!?

Note that if I go for the mountaineer, I could also go for the 3541 to match the sizes/weight... but with a max load bonus.

Thanks for your inputs.
