The Sirui ET-1004 Aluminum Tripod with E-10 Ball Head is a versatile tripod system consisting of a 4-section aluminum tripod and a reliable ball head with a quick release plate.
When fully extended, the tripod reaches a maximum height of 55 inches. Despite its lightweight design of 3.6 pounds, it can support an impressive weight capacity of up to 18 pounds. For shooting macro or from low angles, the tripod includes a short center column that can be easily interchanged. Additionally, the center column can be inverted, allowing for unique shooting perspectives from beneath the tripod.
The 4-section legs of the ET-1004 feature convenient flip locks, enabling effortless adjustment. Each leg can be independently positioned at three different angles, automatically locking securely in place for stable shooting on uneven terrain. When it’s time to pack up, the tripod’s legs can fold up to a compact 180-degree angle, reducing its folded length to just 16.5 inches. The rugged spider, crafted from forged aluminum alloy, ensures durability, while the legs themselves are constructed from economical aluminum alloy, providing stability, performance, and longevity.
The ET-1004 tripod comes complete with the E-10 ball head and a quick-release plate. The ball head features separate adjustment knobs for panning and locking, with the locking knob made of metal for a secure grip and enhanced wear resistance. The E-10 ball head’s locking mechanism can support a weight of up to 40 pounds and is engineered to deliver smooth, vibration-free movement. To facilitate fast and accurate alignment, a bubble level is included with the tripod.
Overall, the Sirui ET-1004 Aluminum Tripod with E-10 Ball Head offers a reliable and versatile solution for photographers seeking stability, flexibility, and precision in their tripod system.
