Otto Engineering Wood Tripod - $150

Gitzo No 2 three way head - $75

Take both for $200 - as always will consider offers


Gitzo No. 2 head is in very good condition - camera platform is 3" x 5.5" - includes BOTH 1/4" and 3/8" attachment screws

Otto Tripod is in excellent condition. Wood has no splits or cracks, finish is in very good condition, legs reverse from rubber tips to spikes, has 1/4" camera attachment screw, length is 36" to 60", leg spread angle can be set individually at any angle, platform is 4" in diameter. This was made by Ries, but sold by Otto Engineering.

Tripod and head weigh about 9 pounds total. I used this with both 8x10 and 5x7 field cameras - it is a very solid setup.​

I have a set of these legs & agree with Bob about their capacity.
They look nifty under a wooden camera too.
 
Bob, I am very interested in the tripod. Do you have a photo of it standing open? Thanks
