Gitzo Systematic Tripod Series 5 Carbon 6 Sections G Systematic is the choice of exacting professional photographers who use long lenses & heavy cameras. Not only are Systematic Gitzo’s strongest & most stable tripods, they’re also modular, with a top casting element that opens & closes to allow each tripod to be configured with a flat disk, geared or sliding center column, video half-ball adaptor, leveling base or other Systematic accessories. The latest range features Carbon e Xact tubes, new ultra-stable feet & the Easy Link attachment, making the Systematic even more stable, versatile, & ergonomic. The Easy Link attachment (3/8'' thread) allows the user to attach various accessories such as a Manfrotto arm to use lighting accessories. Series 5 (top leg diameter 41.3mm) is the choice of the most demanding professionals, being the most rigid tripods in the whole Gitzo range. The top casting is larger than that of Series 3 & 4 Systematics in order to provide maximum stability.
