Gitzo Systematic Series 5 Carbon Fiber Tripod... Reviews
Strong, sturdy, and portable

This is by far the sturdiest tripod I've owned. The build quality is really spectacular. I searched for the strongest tripod I could find which collapses down to around 24". This one fit my needs perfectly. I decided to buy this version with the Gitzo ball head. It's build quality and operation are everything you'd expect from Gitzo. Although, I did need to tighten the two screws that hold the quick release plate to the ball. The green crinkle paint matches perfectly with the tripod. It's a beautiful and functional set.
Worth the price

This is the most solid tripod I have ever owned; I totally trust my expensive gear to be mounted on it without any concerns. It is easy to use and very stable with a Nikon D850 and a 200-500 mm lens attached.
