This product is very expensive for a tripod and I see why. As long as you use it properly it will going to last a lifetime even your grandchildren can use it in the future thats how amazing the quality of this product is. Its weight, lightness and sturdiness is what i really like. The locks are really smooth although i like the lever type of lock but this lock is on another level. There is no play when you extend the legs longer. This will be my last tripod, if i ever lost this tripod i would buy another one regardless of the price..

After extensive research and development, the Gitzo GT4553S Series 4 Systematic emerges as a robust, 5-section, professional-grade carbon fiber tripod, meticulously engineered to provide unwavering support for heavy cameras and elongated lenses. This tripod is a testament to the perfect amalgamation of height, lightweight design, durability, and unparalleled stability, making it an ideal choice for professional photographers and videographers.
The GT4553S is not just one of Gitzo's strongest and most stable tripods, but it also sets a new benchmark in terms of modularity. The innovative top casting element of the GT4553S can be opened and closed, enabling the tripod to be customized with a flat disk, geared or sliding center column, video half-ball adaptor, leveling base, or other Systematic accessories, thus enhancing its versatility.
Weighing in at a mere 2.23kg, this tripod can securely handle an impressive payload of 28g. It offers a wide height range, from as low as 10cm to as high as 136cm, and can be conveniently folded down to a compact size of 48cm. This makes the GT4553S a highly reliable and adaptable solution, perfect for on-the-go professionals.
The GT4553S features Gitzo's proprietary Carbon eXact tubes and G-Lock Ultra twist-locks, which not only ensure a solid connection between the leg sections but also offer protection against dirt damage. The newly designed, ultra-stable, removable feet further enhance the tripod's stability.
The Easy Link attachment adds to the tripod's ergonomics and versatility, allowing users to attach a wide range of optional accessories, such as Manfrotto arms, LED lighting solutions, monitors, and more. With a top leg diameter of 37mm, the GT4553S is both sturdy and compact. Its 5-section construction allows for a reduced folded length, making it an upgrade from the GT4553S's predecessor, the GT4552TS.
In conclusion, the Gitzo GT4553S Series 4 Systematic is a preferred choice among discerning professionals seeking a reliable, stable, and versatile support system for their heavy professional equipment and long lenses.
