Does anyone know where to actually get spares for a giottos tripod please

A "working" tested link or email

Thanks

Lost, weight hanger from centre column on 9255 alloy

Doesn’t look as if they have a UK distributor. Do you need the hook? I can’t say that I’ve ever made use of the hooks that came with my Manfrotto and Velbon. For stability don’t use the centre column, don’t use the last leg-section and make sure the legs are properly spread out.

 

I followed the link and found this comment "Currently unavailable." which may well indicate that it is now out of production or that they aren't being imported. The Giottos web site suggests that this tripod is now made using Carbon fibre but does, usefully, have a "Support" tab which you can find here http://www.giottos.com/online.aspx?typeid=10

 

I found that earlier but it is just a contact page, no suggestion of a spares catalogue.

 

Thanks

 

The 9255 is a very lightweight mount occasionally used but it needs weighting down as the legs do not move very far apart, I have a Gitzo and Giottos pro but the small giottos is great for cycling and with a cattier bag can be strengthened

 

Indeed but an email may be sufficient to get them to offer a replacement part. Nikon don't have a parts catalogue in the UK but they are happy to supply some spare parts on request.
