SIRUI SL-100 Two-Section Carbon Fiber Center Column-Tripod Extender-Tripod Extension Tube

This mini tripod is an absolute gem for photographers who need a sturdy, lightweight, and portable support system. After testing it extensively, including with my Nikon Z9 paired with a 300mm f/2.8 lens (a combined weight of over 4kg), I’m thoroughly impressed. Build Quality: The build quality is outstanding. The materials used in construction not only makes it lightweight but also exceptionally sturdy - though it is heavy enough to feel high quality - difficult to explain that one! It feels rock-solid in use, even under the significant weight of professional camera gear. Every component is well-made, with smooth adjustments and a reassuring rigidity that inspires confidence, no matter the setup. Stability: I was initially skeptical about how this compact tripod would handle such a heavy combination, but it performed flawlessly. It holds the Nikon Z9 and 300mm lens without a hint of wobble or instability. Even when angled for low shots or uneven terrain, the tripod stays securely planted, which is a testament to its engineering. Size & Portability: This mini tripod is impressively compact and lightweight, making it a perfect travel companion. It easily fits into a camera bag or backpack without adding unnecessary bulk. Despite its small size, it offers a professional-grade level of support that rivals much larger tripods. Functionality: The adjustable legs and simple locking mechanism make setup quick and hassle-free. It’s versatile enough for low-angle photography, tabletop use, or supporting heavier gear in tight spaces. The carbon fiber material also absorbs vibrations effectively, ensuring sharp, clear shots. Value for Money: Given the exceptional build quality, performance, and portability, this tripod offers fantastic value for money. It competes with much more expensive options while delivering professional-grade results in a compact form factor. Final Thoughts: Whether you’re a professional photographer or a serious hobbyist, this carbon fiber mini tripod is a must-have. It’s sturdy enough to handle heavy gear like the Nikon Z9 and 300mm lens while remaining light and portable enough to carry anywhere. An excellent purchase that I highly recommend!

The SIRUI AM-223 Carbon Fibre Mini Tripod is an absolute gem for photographers who need a compact yet sturdy tripod.

It’s perfect for low-angle shots, macro photography, and travel use. The quality is excellent, and the design is well thought out. If you’re looking for a reliable mini tripod that’s easy to carry and built to last, this is a great choice.

Nifty piece of kit, works well for me on hikes. Versatile and well made

This discounted "Amazon Warehouse" branded item was indistinguishable from a brand new equivalent and was delivered in its original box, with all components present and unmarked. And at first glance this lightweight, travel tripod is perfect for my needs and I look forward to making good use of it.

Great quality and very light to carry around.

I am impressed at the quality and lightness of the tripod. It's firm enough for my telescope but so light and small that makes it easier to carry it with the telescope case.

Lightweight compact and sturdy. Nice tripod

Awesome tripod

Great tripod with a great price. Its small, light but very sturdy despite the appearance. I bought it for hiking with my Panasonic S1R

Ce trépied SIRUI AM-284+ l'extension SL-200 sont réalisés dans un carbone 10 couches de belle facture. Les tubes de carbone coulissent très bien entre eux, le serrage des tubes est réalisé sans effort et solidement. Il est relativement léger 1.2kg + 0.150 kg pour l'extension, si l'on ajoute une rotule moyenne de qualité on est sur un poids de 1,5 kg sans extension à 1.6kg avec, ce qui est bien pour un trépied de voyage. Les tubes sont en carbone de 29.4 mm pour les plus gros à 18,6mm, la colonne centrale ou extension est de 25,4mm à 29,4mm ce qui est solide et mesure 320mm. La hauteur maxi du trépied sans la colonne est de 1,20m, ce qui peut sembler petit mais si l'on rajoute une rotule et le boitier on passe à 1,40m ce qui est pas mal pour un gabarit de 1.72m et on a toujours la colonne pour l'agrandir si nécessaire. Sa taille mini de rangement : 445mm. Le sac de transport n'est pas terrible comparé à la marque INNOREL qui elle fournit des sacs de transport très rembourrés et d'une qualité bien supérieure, SIRUI devrait faire un effort sur ce point. La hauteur de trépied mini est de 80mm ce qui permet d'être relativement près du sol notamment en macro. Pour un prix assez doux pour la taille on est sur du matériel solide, stable, bien fabriqué, d'un aspect qui respire la qualité le tout sans forcément se ruiner. Il faut maintenant passer à la pratique pour voir si le ressenti est concluant sur le terrain. Ce sera fait d'ici quelques jours et je ne manquerai pas de revenir pour confirmer ce que j'ai pensé de ce trépied Sirui. MODIFICATION : Jusqu'à ce jour, toutes les sensations et caractéristiques sont au beau fixe. Ce trépied est agréable à manipuler, il est parfaitement stable et solide. Je suis très content de cet achat. Je retrouve les mêmes sensations qu'avec mon trépied d'affût de marque INNOREL GT324C qui lui aussi me comble.

A distanza di tempo, posso dire che è piccolo ma veramente ben progettato. Ci monto sopra una testa a sfera Manfrotto. Leggero, utilissimo per tutte le situazioni simili a davanzali, parapetti, dove posizionare un cavalletto normale di grandezza superiore è scomodissimo . Ben fatte le articolazioni e i morsetti delle zampe. Veramente un bel prodotto.

Day one review: I've had bad luck with travel tripods in the past and resorted to using my Manfrotto 190XProB as my daily (main being an Innorel RT-90C which I can't recommend enough). Enter the AM-254, which weighs practically nothing and literally fits *inside* my Besnfoto PRVKE clone! Sure, this doesn't provide RT90C levels of absolute stability (e.g. it wobbles when you adjust physical controls on your camera with the ST200 center column extended, less so with it retracted, and likely very little without it), but it's significantly more stable than the 190XProB. Clip and spikes are a large bonus for real estate photography. 10/10 would recommend at this point in time (esp. when on sale).

good quality fast delivery recommended !
