Maximum Strength & Stability

Purchased this to replace a 30 year old monster Gitzo tripod that can still handle large telephoto/SLR weight combos. The 5533LS does a great job at this! Very pleased with the feel of it, as it?s hard to match the precision of those old machined alloy Gitzo?s. Any differences between them, is more than offset by the savings in weight. In my case, it?s 1/3 that of my older model, with what so far does not feel like any difference stability. Impressive! Also, I also like the ability of shooting at ground level. This provides unique angles for a much different tripod shooting look. It is expensive, but after registering it with Gitzo, it?s guaranteed for many years of use into the future.

Before you embark on your next photographic adventure, consider the unparalleled support and versatility offered by the Gitzo GT5533LS Series 5 Systematic Long tripod. This professional-grade, 3-section carbon fiber tripod is engineered to securely support heavy camera setups and long lenses, making it an essential tool for serious photographers and videographers.

Crafted from high-quality carbon fiber, the GT5533LS is not only sturdy and durable but also impressively lightweight, weighing in at just 2.72kg. Despite its feather-light construction, it boasts an outstanding payload capacity of 42kg, ensuring that even the heaviest professional equipment is held steady.

The GT5533LS's modularity is a testament to its design excellence. The top casting element is ingeniously designed to open and close, enabling photographers to customize the tripod with a range of Systematic accessories, such as a flat disk, geared or sliding center column, video half-ball adaptor, or levelling base. This versatility allows for a tailored shooting experience, whether you're capturing breathtaking landscapes or intricate architectural details.

Stability is a hallmark of the GT5533LS, with its Carbon eXact tubes and G-Lock Ultra twist-locks that not only provide a rock-solid connection between leg sections but also safeguard against dirt and debris. The new, ultra-stable, removable feet enhance this tripod's secure stance, giving you peace of mind in any shooting environment.

The GT5533LS's Easy Link attachment furthers its ergonomic and versatile design, allowing for the attachment of a plethora of accessories, such as Manfrotto arms, LED lights, and monitors. This feature transforms the tripod into a mobile workstation, adaptable to the diverse needs of creative professionals.

With a maximum height of 145cm, this tripod can extend to accommodate a wide range of angles and perspectives. Its ability to reach as low as 10cm from the ground offers unique shooting angles for a distinct visual aesthetic. When it's time to move to the next location, the GT5533LS folds down to a compact 68cm, making it a portable solution for photographers on the go.

The GT5533LS's top leg diameter of 41.3mm and larger top casting compared to Series 3 & 4 Systematic models ensure maximum stability, solidifying its status as the go-to tripod for the world's most demanding professionals. This model, which replaces the GT5532LS, stands as a testament to Gitzo's commitment to providing high-quality, reliable support systems for serious photography and videography work.
