Ideal for travel. Review: Flawed design and bad pan head - The tripod itself seemed promising in having a unique design that keeps the weight down, but is not well designed for spotting scopes. With the legs fully extended but the centre column retracted, the tripod feels a tad flimsy. After 2 weeks of usage the locking mechanism on one of the tripod legs stopped working and the legs would push into itself and cannot be locked. The pan head is also terrible and has an all-or-nothing lock. When its loose a heavy spotting scope will flop on its own weight and has to be completely tightened. The horizontal adjustment is also terrible as it has sometimes gets stuck on itself, and when tightened the image will shift sideways. ## Features - 3K CARBON FIBER MATERIAL- Crafted with 3K twill weave patterns, the SIRUI Traveler X carbon fiber tripod kit is remarkably lightweight while remaining extraordinary stability, making it a perfect go-to tripod for traveling or backpacking. - INNOVATIVE & QUICK REALEASE LEG - Instead of using several twist locks to adjust the height, the SIRUI tripod uses only one twist lock to fully extend or retract the 5-section leg tubes within 2 seconds, save more time to catch the shooting or hunting moment. - 2.09 LIGHTWEIGHT, 11 LOAD - The tripod for camera kit weighs only 2.09lbs!
