bought this for backpack hunting. Supports my swarovski spotting scope well for its weight. Folds up very compact to fit in a pack nicely. I am 6' 2 and can look through my spotter while standing. Probably won't use it standing much but nice to have the option

I dont often carry a tripod because of the weight.  I expect to take this one with me much more often.  It is wonderfully small and light.  The quality looks really excellent.

Love this little tripod. Finally, a tripod that is light enough lug around all day. At 2.2 lbs., I am very pleased.

This is a very lightweight tripod that seems to come at a cost of a sturdy feel, but that's purely subjective. When fully extended, there is a tiny bit of bowing. This is the feeling of lack of sturdiness. However, the tripod is quite stable, and you can increase the stability by attaching a weight to the included carabiner at the base of neck. The materials feel top notch, and all moving parts glide smoothly. Locking the ball joint is very smooth and doesn't take much force; same with lateral rotation of the neck. For max height reference, I'm 5'10 and have to bend over slightly to use the viewfinder. It doesn't come with an extension grip to help with panning. However, I have no problem just using the camera to pan since everything rotates so smoothly. The only thing I wish this had was a lock for one of the legs to also use this as a monopod. Still, it's just fine with all three legs extended and tied together with a rubber band or something similar.

Overall a solid tripod that's very lightweight. I have no problem taking this with me on walks or to the park with my toddlers or on forest hikes to landscape or wildlife. If it's in your budget (or can find it on sale like I did), then it's a tripod you won't regret having bought.

Light weight, small fold up package make this tripod perfect for hiking. Well designed, easy setup, just be careful not to strip the very fine threads of the center tube when reattaching.

I love this tripod! It's a snap to set-up and the carbon fiber construction makes for an exceptionally light tripod. The legs extend smoothly and the twist locks feel solid. I primarily use this with an Olympus OMD + 12-100 mm lens and although I would have preferred that the center column be adjustable, it really has not been an issue of becoming top heavy. I always have the option to remove the center column, but have not needed to do so. Overall, this Sirui tripod is great for travel and even fits in my backpack!

good product, only 2.2lb. I can take it travelling everywhere

Awesome travel tripod- super light and amazingly sturdy. Supports by A7R3 with a 70-200 GM with no problem. Great for Astro too!

I just found this compact, lightweight and reasonably priced travel tripod for my Fujifilm x100f and even my Fujifilm xh-1 sits comfortably. I have been a Manfrotto user for more than 25 years but the world is changing and other brands have catched up. Its very light, small and a very well designed tripod. I was about to buy the Gitzo traveller tripod but when i bumped into this Sirui, I just cant believe how well it was designed and well built. And it is only 1/4 price of a Gitzo tripod. I highly recommend this tripod.

The Sirui T-25SK is the perfect compact travel tripod. Perfect for hiking and traveling that folds down to about 12. I paired this with my A7III + Tamron 28-75 f/2.8 and Sony 16-35 f/4 without any issues. It also attached to the bottom of my Peak Design Sling. If youre searching for a perfect lightweight/travel tripod, look nowhere else.
