Gitzo GT5541LS Series 5 Long 6X Carbon Fiber 4-Section Systematic Tripod with G-Lcok – Replaces GT5540LS

Systematic tripods are the strongest and most stable available, but 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. Attachment: 3/8” screw; bubble spirit level

    This is one of the biggest photo tripods that Gitzo makes. Its extremely stable, well built and feels like it will last a life time. As a result it is rather heavy. I’d say that unless you are shooting with either a 600mm f/4 or 800 f/5.6 lens, you probably don’t need this tripod and the Gitzo “3-series” will probably suffice. However for ultimate stability this is the one to get. I’ve photographed birds with a 600 f/4 lens in moderate to heavy winds with this tripod and had rock solid stability and very sharp images.
