Description
Traveler tripod model that maximizes portability and performance
Accurate panoramas without leveling the tripod
The Markins Q3i Traveler Panorama Model is a dedicated system combining a compact ball head optimized for traveler tripods with a panorama clamp.
With a structure where the quick shoe on top of the ball rotates 360°,
you can level using the ball even if the tripod is tilted, enabling accurate panorama shooting without additional adjustments.
When the ground where your tripod is set up is not perfectly level —
panorama shooting often becomes difficult.
Do you have any of these concerns?
- You want a compact setup but don’t want to compromise on performance
- You need a ball head that locks firmly even for travel use
- Leveling the tripod takes too much time
- Panorama shots don’t align cleanly due to stitching errors
The Q3i Traveler Panorama Model achieves an ideal balance of lightweight design and high performance at an exceptional level.
Reliable locking performance and precise panorama control in a compact body
As demonstrated in the video, it delivers rock-solid holding power that does not move at all even after releasing your gear.
At the same time, it moves smoothly in proportion to applied force, allowing safe and intuitive composition control.
In addition, smooth rotation while maintaining level enables high-precision panorama shooting without misalignment.

Features of the Panorama Clamp (QR-65P)
The quick-turn knob allows attachment and removal in about one full rotation, enabling smooth operation.
The double disk lock structure delivers powerful and vibration-free panning.
What is the Traveler Tripod Model?
Compatible with tripods that fold by reversing the legs, such as Gitzo traveler tripods.
To prevent interference when folded, it features a dedicated design with a low-profile panning base.
※The knob shoe model uses a short knob shoe.
This allows for smooth and compact folding.
The only difference from the standard model is this design; basic performance remains the same.
※Compatible with Gitzo traveler tripods → GT1541T, GT1544T, GT1545T, GT2542T, GT2545T
※When folded, the legs spread slightly, resulting in a diameter of approximately 12cm
