This tripod is made for outdoor use, but behaves just fine indoors and in the studio. It comes packed in a neat cardboard box featuring all the basic info. Inside is the tripod, a carrying bag, instruction leaflets, guarantee, and several Allen keys. The tripod assembles easily. It uses an Allen key to secure the ball head to the centre column, but you’ll only need to remove that if you transfer the ball head to the monopod. The legs are locked closed, and they open using a neat spring clip at the top, which you press to release the lock. The legs then lock into whatever angle you’ve chosen, and can be closed simply by pushing the legs together. The ball head includes a spirit level that sits at one side of the camera.The ball head has a reversable 1/4 inch and 3/8 inch screw for mounting cameras or tripod heads.The ball head is standard stuff, with universal movement and separate rotation adjuster. There’s a clamp plate that can be lifted off by opening the clamp fully, or slid off using the safety catch underneath. The centre column can be raised in two stages. The legs and centre column extend and lock using a rubberized twist lock, so it’s a simple matter to adjust the height of any part of it. A neat addition is that one leg can be removed to make a monopod, onto which you drop the ball head.In use, it’s quick to erect and to adjust, and quick for mounting and removing a camera. It’ll go down to something that just about fits on a desktop (260mm height), and extends up to 1400mm. It folds down to just 440mm, which is small enough to fit into hand luggage on a flight. Unusually, the legs have almost 180 degrees of motion, so you can wedge the tripod into almost anywhere and at any angle. You could even mount the whole thing upside down, with the camera between the legs, if you wanted. There’s also a sprung anchor hook underneath, to tether the tripod for remote operation and time lapse use, hang your kit from (and deter people from just walking off with it), and a carry lanyard. The lanyard isn’t mentioned anywhere in the guides. It fits onto the screw cap underneath, with the sprung hook going through the middle.Sirui is a Chinese manufacturer, but I have to say the user guide is spot-on. No ropey English here, and the illustrations are large and clear. The tripod is a very nicely put together bit of kit, entirely in black, and with rubberized feet and fittings. It looks professional, feels very solid, and doesn’t weigh much for what it is. The telescopic legs stay put at whatever length and angle you put them, you can pack it away in seconds, and the monopod option is a very useful double-up adding nothing to what you carry. Overall, it’s a lovely do-it-all indoor and outdoor tripod and monopod.

I’m far from a real expert when it comes to cameras, I’m a bit of an enthusiastic snapper who just enjoys photography for what it is – not technical perfection just me taking pics I like. For the last 4 years or so I’ve been using a budget Camlink stand for my main full size tripod and it’s served me well, but this is a big step up quality wise. The actual build is brilliant – solid and sturdy yet easily stored away and compact for carrying purposes. Weight wise it’s similar to the Camlink stand but it’s about a third of the size when taken down, bagged it’s about 37-39 cm, out of the bag 36 cm. Fully extended it’s around 156cm in height,about 12cm shorter than my Camlink but for me that’s not going to make any difference shot wise.The ball joint head is excellent - really well crafted the movement is smooth, precise and when locked down it doesn’t move, a much better system than the tilt/swivel system on the Camlink, the ball head also has a spirit level. The plate the camera attaches to is quickly removed and just as quickly re-attached. The only negative for me is that that the legs are extended and locked in place using twist lock method whereas I actually prefer the lever method (again used by the Camlink) but that is down to personal preference. I’ve tried it out on a few inclines and the legs can be adjusted to perfection ensuring stability in most situations, I’ve never felt like the tripod was going to topple taking the old DSLR with it.A nifty feature is that you can remove one of the legs to turn the stand a monopod – really useful as a number of places I have had my camera have preferred people not to use tripods or downright banned them – probably because of the space they take up when other people are milling about sightseeing.An excellent reliable piece of kit, well built and very portable.

The sirui is the ideal travel tripod that folds into a very small package and can easily fit in an average camera bag or backpack. So what do you get, well you get the following; SIRUI NT-1005X Tripod Alu, SIRUI E-10 Ball Head with TY-50E Release Plate, a decent enough Bag and last but not least some decent instructions, which are actually useful. My apologies for sounding repetitive, however, I was very impressed with the quality of this tripod. There is something a little extra about the quality of the sirui tripods that sold me on this brand. The fit and finish seem superior to even the long established brands out there.I know Sirui is relatively new to the market but for the outlay,you cannot go wrong. I was extremely impressed with the stability and it compared very well with my old tripod. The sirui leg locks have an extra click when you twist them to unlock. This is a safety feature that prevents the legs from collapsing when the leg lock is loosened a bit. Only when the lock is loosened beyond this click will the leg close. If you are, a tallish person then this tripod may be on the smallish side for you. Nonetheless, any travel tripod will most likely be too short as well. I would rather have to stoop a bit and have the added support of a tripod than not have one any day. Only time will tell if this tripod will last as long as my old one did, but overall a good product at a price at this point.

This is a superb piece of kit. Solidly built, great looking and eminently usable, this is the business! As a tripod, it's compact, built to take knocks and easily portable. Not lightweight-it's too solid for that- but no heavier than a good camera bag with lenses. It easily converts to a monopod if you fancy some flexibility for sports photography. But the tripod is the main attraction. Infinitely adjustable, secure and practical, this is the one for you! Very highly recommended!! Serious kit for serious photographers.

The Sirui N-2204SK is a very well made, solid tripod. It is versatile, extending to a reasonable height without having to extend the centre column and will also get quite low with the lower part of the centre column removed. The fact that one of the legs can be utilized as a monopod is a bonus, although I haven't used it as such yet. Overall I'm very happy with the tripod and can highly recommend it.

For the price this is solid and sturdy.When folded its really small but takes time to work out how to fold it back up again into the smallest form factor.The ball head can cope with normal sized cameras but had difficulty when hanging a heavy camera sideways.

Tried Andoer and Cullmann - this is in a different class, albeit a little more expensive. If you have invested in a quality dslr, why chance your camera on a cheap tripod? I wanted a quality, solid but lightweight tripod for a trip to Uganda - this is prefect.
