The Sirui ET-1204 Carbon Fiber Tripod with E-10 Ball Head is built on the specifications of the TX series. Although they have flip locks instead of twist locks and are factory-fitted with a ball head. The tripods are extremely lightweight and have a very compact design. In every situation they are light to handle and support your camera securely. The legs of the ET-1204 can be folded up by 180° so that the tripod has a height of just 42cm when collapsed. The head can remain on the tripod. Each leg is composed of 4 sections with 3 practical flip locks. The rubber feet ensure the tripod is steady on all surfaces. A stabilizing hook on the center column is a SIRUI standard, as are cold-weather grips and a transport bag. The bag strap can also be used as a tripod strap. IRUI's E ball heads operate very accurately, smoothly and softly. The base can be rotated by 360° , ideal for panoramic shots. The friction can be controlled using the setting knobs. The Safety Lock System prevents quick release plates from slipping. The release plate locking mechanism is compatible with Arca Swiss systems and allows various plates to be used.

• Having a tripod at all is great; the majority of photographers own at least one. But having just the right tripod, well, that's a different story. This one from Sirui is full-sized but folds down to a totally packable shape. Each leg has an auto-lock mechanism for standard support angles, and everything is precision-built to provide the vibration-free performance you need.
  
  The tripod itself is built of sturdy and lightweight 8-layer carbon fiber composite, with a center column that can be inverted for low-angle shots. Each leg has three pre-set angle lock points to help with uneven terrain.
  
  A ball head can make or break a tripod shooting experience, depending on how well-designed the unit is, and this one checks all the boxes for smooth, reliable performance. You get separate adjustment knobs for panning and main-locking, a bubble-level for quick horizontal alignment, and precision-machined parts for consistent and smooth adjustments.
