Gitzo 340 Inter Pro Studex Tripod, without center column. It will support loads up to 22.00 pounds. The G-340 was one of the the "Classic" Systematic tripods from Gitzo.
The current version of this tripod is the mk2 G-1340 and its cost new from B&H is currently $ 356.95. The major differences between the two are really minor: the mk2 version has spiked feet if you remove the rubber tips, the smallest legs have height markings for repeat set-ups, and it accepts large rubber pads for using on sand.

Overall condition of the tripod is overall good. The legs has some paint marks (cosmentics only). I haven’t taken the pads off in a long time, so I took the pads off the inspect the legs, and I noticed that the thickest part of the legs where the pads are wrapped are a bit sticky from the ‘sticky’ interior part of the pads from moving around, I didn’t try to wipe it, so I put the pads back.
Mechanically, the tripod is working fine, locks tights and extends accurately.
The tripod can handle my Sigma 300-800, Wimberely Head, and D2X with no issues.
I can take pics if interested.
Price: $235.00 shipped in the US (fedex ground only)
