Tripod Sirui ST-124 for digital and film cameras — 3‑section, 12 kg load, 158 cm max height, 37.5 cm min, Black

The Sirui ST-124 tripod is a three-section support system designed for digital and film cameras, offering a maximum payload of 12 kg and a maximum working height of 158 cm while folding down to 37.5 cm for compact transport. Constructed with carbon tubes and sealed ring locks, this tripod balances lightweight portability with stable support. A triangular central column reduces twisting and vibrations and can be inverted for low-angle or ground-level shooting. Built-in weather protection and a stabilizing hook broaden its usability in varied conditions.

Advantages

Carbon fiber legs deliver reduced weight, increased rigidity and lower vibration transmission compared with aluminium alternatives. The tripod features three click-stop leg angle positions and four-section legs with sealed ring locks for secure, dust- and water-resistant operation. Rubber feet plus removable metal spikes provide reliable footing on different surfaces. The included Arca‑Swiss–compatible video head offers infinitely variable rotation, precise adjustments and a safety lock system to prevent accidental plate release.

Suitable for

• Photography with mirrorless, DSLR and film cameras requiring stable support
• On-location video and run-and-gun shooting with cameras and lightweight rigs
• Low-angle and ground-level compositions using the inverted central column
• Outdoor shoots in variable weather due to water and dust protection
• Studio work where a compact transport size and high load capacity are needed

How to use

Set the tripod on a stable surface and extend the legs to the required height using the sealed ring locks. Choose one of the three leg-angle positions to match the shooting angle or terrain. Mount the camera on the included Arca‑Swiss compatible head and secure the plate using the safety lock system. For low-angle shots, invert the triangular center column and reattach the head. Use the stabilizing hook to add payload or improve balance in windy conditions. When moving between locations, collapse the sections to the folded length for compact transport and store in the supplied carrying bag.

Usage recommendations

For best stability, spread the legs fully on uneven ground and use the metal spikes where soft soil requires extra grip. Avoid abrupt lateral forces on the extended center column; distribute accessories and monitor rigs so the tripod load remains within the specified 12 kg capacity. After use in wet or dusty conditions, rinse and dry sealed joints and locks periodically to maintain smooth operation.
