Product Description

Product Description

Systematic tripods are the strongest and most stable available, and they also offer unsurpassed flexibility. This modular system can be quickly transformed between different configurations depending on the specific needs of a shoot. Choosing the carbon fiber version means you always have the ideal base model for both indoor and outdoor shooting, to which you can add a range of interchangeable center columns for normal use, heavy cameras or video work. This replaces the Gitzo GT3530S. Attachment: 3/8'' screw; bubble spirit level; closed length: 24.02 in.; leg angles: 24°. 55°; 3 leg sections; load capacity: 39.68 lbs.; material: carbon fiber 6X; maximum height: 50.79 in.; minimum height: 3.94 in.; series: 3; weight: 3.75 lbs.

What more could I write about Gitzo Tripods that hasn't already been written? It's hard to imagine how one brand of something as seemingly simple as a tripod could stand out so clearly from others, but once you've had the pleasure to hold a Gitzo CF in your hands you realize why. And chances are if you are considering this tripod you're fairly familiar with them anyway.

For those new to tripods however, I do have one piece of advice (gained from experience). Everyone seems to follow the same pattern when it comes to tripods and camera bags (myself included). We all start by trying to save money and look for the bargain, only to be disappointed several times before finally breaking down and buying the "best". The old adage "you get what you pay for" has been around throughout time for a reason. If quality is important to you, just save yourself considerable time and money - buy this tripod first (and maybe a good Gitzo CF monopod as well) and be done with it!

If I were to come up with one criticism, it's that Gitzo CF tripods don't come with the foam "leg warmers" like so many others. Gitzo sells a set separately, but I tried them and they are, well, junk (and expensive junk to boot - probably not really made by Gitzo either). So you are left to try a third party solution, or kludge something up from materials at the local hardware store. All in all though a minor point considering the overall quality of the tripod itself.
