Systematic Casting

Colin Prior, is a respected landscape photographer. His photographs capture moments of light and land and he has travelled to over forty countries throughout the world to capture landscape photography. Colin has used Gitzo products for years in his work, and is also a Gitzo ambassador.

Colin said: “During the past 30 years, I have worked exclusively with Gitzo tripods and was an early covert to the Mountaineer range of carbon-fibre tripods when they were first introduced. Image sharpness has as much to do with camera shake as it has with lens design and the stability offered by the Gitzo range of tripods eradicates this concern. The updated Systematic range sets new ground in terms of strength and stability and are my go to tripod for any shoot.”

Happy birthday Gitzo!
