SIRUI has announced a new kit consisting of a tripod and a fluid head. The tripod is the SIRUI SQ75, made of carbon fiber and supporting a load of up to 18 kg (39.6 lbs). It features a SIRUI flip lock for height adjustment, allowing you to extend or retract all the sections simultaneously. The VHS10 fluid head complements this tripod and features seven steps of counterbalance and 3+0 damping adjustment. It also has a 75mm half-ball mount, making it compatible with other tripods.
