SIRUI 5 Section Pro Aluminium Tripod T1005x with Professional Travel Bag

The SIRUI T-1005X Tripod is the lightest and the most compact aluminum tripod in the line. With its 5-section, easy folding design, it can be reversely folded into compact size of 13.39 in, which fits with one of the recommended SIRUI ball heads in the traveling case. Weighing only at 1.0 kg (2.2 lbs), this model is very light for an aluminum tripod, and it can support up to 22 lbs of photographic equipment. It also comes with a short center column that you may use interchangeably with the main center column for low-height shooting. Two adjustment settings are available that click in place automatically to lock the angle.

The T-1005X is ideal for use with 35mm photographic cameras, DSLRs and digital or conventional type video camcorders. The recommended ball heads are SIRUI G-10, K-10X.

Forging Technology

Instead of using the traditional casting processes that is typical of construction in the tripod industry, SIRUI is the pioneer to adopt the technology of forging, which can produce a piece that is stronger than an equivalent cast or machined part as the organizational structure of the metal is more welded and compacted together. In addition, forging enhances the integrity of metal grains so that they remain consistent and continuous, which allows for a longer lifetime as well as better performance that is unrivalled by that which is created by casting.

Anodic Surface Treatment

Anodizing surface treatment, produced by an electrolytic oxidation process to increase the thickness of the natural oxide layer on the surface of metal parts, is applied to increase corrosion and wear resistance, surface hardness, and enhance color durability.
