Is the Gitzo Mini Treveler stable enough to hold a DSLR camera securely?
The Gitzo Mini Traveler seems to be a great option for travel photography due to its compact and lightweight design. However, I’m curious about its stability and load capacity. Can it handle heavier cameras and lenses without compromising stability, or is it more suitable for smaller setups?
