Gitzo introduces the new Systematic tripod range.


Gitzo introduces the new Systematic tripod range.

01/30/2012

Systematic is Gitzo’s top of the range tripod family, the choice of exacting professional photographers who use long lenses and heavy cameras. Not only are Systematic Gitzo’s strongest and most stable tripods, they’re also modular, with a top casting element that opens and closes to allow each tripod to be configured with a flat diskgeared or sliding centre column, video half-ball adaptorlevelling unit or other specialised centre component.

Now, Systematic has been refined, with significant improvements across strength, stability and rigiditysafety and securityset-up speedease of use and ergonomics. New construction and bonding techniques have almost doubled maximum payloads by distributing weight more efficiently to the 6X carbon fibre legs, which also feature the G-Lock system for greater power and ease of leg section locking.

In addition, design details on the distinctive new triangular top casting make changing centre components even faster and safer.

The Systematic range has been extended to cover Gitzo Series 2 in order to offer the advantages of mechanical strength and build quality at a more portable sizeand weight. Each Systematic Series has 3-section, standard 4-section and long 4-section tripods, with Series 3 and 5 also offering an extra-long 4-section model and Series 5 featuring the iconic giant 6-section tripod alongside an ultra-compact 6 section model.

Systematic - the pinnacle of Gitzo technology, craftsmanship and quality.

Even if the top casting is left open by accident, the centre component is held securely in place by the secondary safety mechanism until the button is pushed, protecting expensive camera equipment


The geometry of the top casting improves stability and distributes weight more evenly; combined with a high-performance bonding and assembly process, it gives Systematic its outstanding strength under heavy loads.



Built-in one-piece spiked feet provide a secure footing and fast set-up on all surfaces. The spikes have a resistant anti-scratch finish that protects delicate floors, but protective rubber caps are fitted for everyday usage.


New leg angle selectors offer more grip room to make tripod setup and adjustment easier.
