The ST124 4-Section Carbon Fiber Tripod & VA-5 X Fluid Head Kit from Sirui is a complete tripod kit designed for mirrorless and DSLR cameras. Included in the kit are the ST124 4-section tripod and the VA-5 X fluid head. The tripod's unusual triangular center column reduces the diameter of the leg set to less than 3" but still supports a maximum height of 62.2". The column is removable and reversible for shooting from a floor-level perspective and also features a ballast hook for added stability. The entire kit has a load capacity of 6.6 lb altogether.
The fluid head secures to the tripod via a 3/8"-16 thread and features a double-insurance locking system to keep the Arca-type quick release plate in place. Your camera is attached via 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 screws and can then be panned 360° or tilted 150°. The legs feature waterproof twist-lock joints to seal the legs against water, dust, and debris when working in the field. The rubber feet provide traction and incorporate retractable foot spikes for ice or other slick surfaces. Independent leg spread and locking leg positions allow the ST124 to be leveled on uneven terrain.
