Didn't see any picture of this particular model, so here we go with a little quick review...

Technical Details

I got it from Amazon

The package -- tripod comes with a nice padded bag, wide shoulder strap, short center column, no head

It's less than 15" with the head (Sunwayfoto FB36), weight about 3 lbs, fits inside my camera bag.

The short center column can be screwed on top of the regular one to add height, but it's mainly for going low..

Sirui's forging vs Benro's casting parts

The head mounting plate can be removed without tools. The fit and finish on all parts are nice.

The badge appears to be leather, and there's a flap cover for the zipper on the inside compartment. They do pay attentions to the little details.

The tripod is quite strong for its size, but this type of tripod is always top heavy even without the camera on it. I wouldn't walk away from the setup without some weight hanging at the bottom.

This the first time I own a Sirui product, I am quite impressed with their quality as with many other online reviews.
