Gitzo GT4552TS Systematic Carbon Tripod

The most compact of all the Systematic tripods when folded, the GT4552TS has all the top-of-the-range Systematic features: it's modular, with a flat centre disk that can be interchanged for centre columns, levelling bases and other components, and it has the leg angle settings (but no column as standard) that makes it capable of near-ground level shooting. Leg tubes are in 6X carbon fibre with Gitzo's efficient G-locks. The GT4552TS is a Gitzo Series 4 tripod designed for strength and torsional rigidity under loads of up to 25kg (55lb) and with lenses up to 600mm. It reaches standard-level height with its 5-section legs fully extended, but the short leg sections make it extremely compact when folded.
