Sirui A1205 Tripod with Y-11 Ball Head Overview

The A1205 Tripod with Y-11 Ball Head from Sirui has 5-section carbon fiber legs that fold a full 180° in reverse to make it a compact 14.6" length for storage and transport. Fully extend the center column for a maximum working height of 55.1". The 22 lb load capacity allows you to attach a pro DSLR with a large telephoto lens.

A hook at the bottom of the center column can be used to hang a small sandbag or camera bag to stabilize the tripod. Variable leg angles allow a minimum height of 10.2", and you can reverse the center column to get even closer to the ground. The tripod's leg detaches and converts into a monopod that increases in height by attaching the center column.

The included Y-11 ball head is Arca-type compatible and comes equipped with a quick release plate. It also has a knob-style lock for the clamp, and two separate knobs control movement of the ball and 360° panning base. Place your camera at a  90° angle using the ball head's single-cut notch.

I sent my rebate form months ago, but I haven't gotten any response. The product is good.

Lightweight and compact - but one caveat...

Overall a great little travel tripod for light cameras (like mirrorless using regular standard lenses). I like that it folds up to about 14 making it perfect for fitting into a carry-on bag, but the downside to this tripod is its dumb double column telescoping design -- makes the whole thing unstable even if the columns are retracted at the twist-lock is tightened all the way down. I'd give it 4/5 stars if they either used a regular single center column or no center column at all, but the fact they included a DOUBLE center column is a bad design choice. Fine if you're working indoors where there is no wind, but bad if you're out in windy conditions forget it... if you're out doing landscape, find something else. This is only really good for indoor use or situations where there is little to no wind. Even with a 4 lb mirrorless camera setup I could see vibration from wind. You basically get what you pay for here. If you must use this, splay the legs and jam the center column into the dirt to get maximum stability if you have to. About the only good thing about this is it's affordable, CF, folds small, and you can splay the legs. But that's about it.
