Gitzo Systematic crank center column GS5313GS Se

You can install the column by removing the base plate of the tripod, inserting the central column, and locking it in place. The main feature of the GS5313GS is the gear mechanism, which allows the user to make incremental vertical adjustments using an integrated crank handle. Once the desired height is reached, the user can use the central collar equipped with a disc lock to secure the column. The column has a native height of 18.5 inches, with a travel distance of 11.8 inches from the maximum height to the minimum height. It weighs 8.4 kg, a manageable weight that emphasizes its professional quality and durability, and includes a ballast hook at the bottom for adding extra stabilization weight if needed.
