With a six-year warranty and forged details in, for example, the spindle (where the legs join), Sirui has established itself as a serious player in the tripod market.
As long as you are 170-175 cm, full standing height is obtained without pulling up the center column. But of course it is possible to get full standing height even for taller people if the relatively long and solid center pillar is pulled up. The center pillar has a built-in hook for loading. Four sections and three leg locks on each leg make the tripod quite compact in transport mode and it fits in its entirety in the included bag, good to know if you need to travel with the tripod. With a little practice, it is possible to open all three leg locks per leg in one hand when unlocking to unfold the legs, the same when the legs are folded and the locks must be locked again. Two of the legs are equipped with soft padding and the feet consist of Sirui's fine solution where you quietly and comfortably unscrew a hidden nail from the solid rubber paw. The leg angles can be adjusted in two positions and are controlled by an automatic stop heel. Included in the package: Stand, padded protective case, shoulder strap, tools, user manual, warranty card.
