SIRUI AM-124 Carbon Fiber Tripod with Triangular Center Column 62 6 Compact Travel Tripod for Camera 4 Sections

The Sirui AM124 tripod sets the bar high when it comes to stability, especially for its size and weight. I found it to be exceptionally sturdy, even in challenging windy conditions. I toped it with a Sirui VA-5 head and it holds my optics firmly without worrying about any unwanted movement or vibrations. The build quality is impressive. Every component of this tripod is meticulously designed and constructed with durability in mind. One of the standout features of the tripod is its compact size. When folded, it shrinks down to a remarkably portable form, making it easy to carry in a backpack or travel bag. Despite its compactness, this tripod doesn't compromise on performance. It extends to an impressive height, providing the necessary flexibility for various glassing situations. I'm very impressed with the Sirui AM124 and would recommend it to anyone looking for a compact and stable tripod for glassing and photography. Read more

I now own 2 Sirui travel tripods. The best tripods I have ever owned. Stable, durable, affordable, tall, light, and easy to use. 10/10 Recommend it. Read more

Bought this during Amazon Prime Days for a Spring 2024 trip to Jackson Hole WY. It was marked $50.00 off. I had researched You Tube for a compact travel tripod I could pack for airplane travel and scoured every " for sale used site" for this one on line and found not even one. My thinking was, if no one was selling theirs's, they must like it. So I checked during the Prime sale and there it was. Into the cart it went. It arrived on "prime" time and my husband unpacked it and set it up. I have been admiring it ever since. It is light weight for sure but seems sturdy. The legs have a nice attractive pattern and a smooth feel. (something a woman would make note of, right?) It is quick to set up. Temperatures are above 100 degrees in Texas right now, so it has not been out for a 'critter shoot' field test. When it cools off I will take it out and then give another review. It does have a hook on the center column for a weight. I should also say I bought this to use with a mirrorless camera setup, and expect it will handle that just fine. Now would I attach a large DSLR camera with a 'honkin big' super zoom lens? Maybe not. But I don't own one so I can't verify that one way or the other. Right now, I really like this tripod.

Over all good quality and solid especially at this price point Read more

Amazing value for the price. I have a Gitzmo carbon fiber tripod for which I paid a small fortune. I wanted the best I could find and it hasn't disappointed me. I have a safari coming up where there is an extreme baggage weight limit on the bush flights. This Suruni with a ballhead is about 1.5 pounds lighter so I thought I'd give it a shot. It is not only lighter, but to my surprise the stability, quality and features are on par with the Gitzmo - FOR A THIRD OF THE PRICE. My only regret is that I didn't find this one first. Read more

Used this on a Canadian hunt for glassing. Lightweight, sturdy, and way cheaper than hunting tripods. Read more

This is going to suit my needs rather well. I'm aware that the legs will wear and tear over time as with any tripod, but I can tell I'm going to get my money's worth. I'll update if anything changes. Read more

Overall, a very nice tripod. The legs are very rigid, even when fully extended, but the center post is less rigid than desired, especially when fully extended. Read more
