Sirui DK28 Reviews

I’m surprisingly impressed with this stand. Very well done.

I normally gravitate to Kupo for light stands. I just find them reliable, fairly priced and very well built. But, I got an itch to try a light weight carbon fiber type and since I have a couple of Sirui tripods I really like allot, I thought I’d give this a shot. I was pleasantly surprised. I mean, Sirui is good with their carbon fiber, so this wasn’t in question. But, the fittings and performance with the air cushion both went into a significant test as soon as I got it. The stand handled everything I have with ease and the dampened retraction is well done. Now, it’s brand new, so we will see if the moving parts on this hold up like they do on Kupo stands, which seem to last forever. But, these are quite light weight and fold small, which is great for storage, but obviously more importantly for going mobile on a shoot. I usually have a separate bag for light stands, but these Surui’s are pretty good at hiding in small luggage, a backpack or strapped to the outside of a bag, like a tripod if ya just need one. I’m a hobbyist and my heaviest light might be an Amaran 300C which has a reported weight of about six pounds. I didn’t think it would be a problem holding it up straight and it wasn’t. With some tilt and rotation action, it still held fine with this size of light which can feel a bit clumsy compared to portable lights. Anyways, it isn’t a problem so I hope that helps someone. It feels like a heavier light could easily work here, with a strong mount between light and stand head. Anyways, I certainly recommend this for its weight and maneuvering abilities over an aluminum or steel stand. For longevity or allot of outdoor work, I would still pick a Kupo model for strength. But for quick shoots in the home studio, packing and travel - and just general handling, this has a definite advantage. And if you are using really light weight gear, this becomes even more of an attractive choice. I guess because it performs well, like their tripods do, I’m pretty pleased here. They aren’t super high end like a Matthews stand maybe, but build and performance is still good and the light weight is appreciated every time I go to use it. So I’d buy it again if I wanted a light weight stand. I also have the house brand Impact stands, in light weight models too. They are pretty good too, but I like the feel and look of the carbon fiber a bit more.

This is my second one

I liked the first one so I purchased another with plans for two more. I have been using these to phase out my heavy metal c stands. They are excellent for use with my Nanlite forzas and either a softbox or umbrella. They pack small and are easy to strap to the top of a Nanlite forza and I am on my way.

what is the Footprint Diameter measurement?

what is the Footprint Diameter measurement?
Asked by: robert
B&H does not stock this stand to check however going on other stands the footprint diameter should be roughly 45" but because the manufacture does not publish the footprint diameter this may be a bit more or less. It is just an estimate.

Is this light stand strong enough to hold a boom ...

Is this light stand strong enough to hold a boom pole with a large rycote blimp dead cat?
Asked by: Clint
The Sirui Carbon Fiber Air-Cushioned Light Stand (9.2') BH #SICFACLS92 is rated for 22lbs. As long as you properly counterbalance the boom and the total load does not exceed the stands load limit then you should be fine.
