Gitzo Systematic Sliding Center Column GS5513S Series 5

You can install the column by removing the base plate of the tripod, inserting the center column, and locking the column in place. The main feature of the GS5513S is its quick functionality, allowing the user to make rapid vertical adjustments simply by turning the collar and pushing the column up or down. Once the desired height is reached, the user can use the collar equipped with a disc brake to securely lock the column in place. The column has a native height of 19.3 inches, with a travel range of 13.8 inches from maximum to minimum height. It weighs 1.4 kg, a manageable weight that emphasizes its professional quality and durability, and also includes a ballast hook at the bottom to add extra stabilization weight if needed.
