Sirui Traveler 5CX carbon fiber tripod with ball head

Sirui Traveler 5CX - carbon fiber travel stand + ball head

Super light and compact travel tripod. This is almost like a table tripod but with decent load capacity and goes higher.

The 5CX is an updated version of the Traveler 5C tripod. The 5CX tripod has a more robust B-00K ball head and a removable center tube, allowing for even lower shooting.

Who this tripod is for: The Traveler 5CX is suitable for those looking for the lightest tripod possible. This is suitable for those who have a mirrorless system camera, a compact mirrorless camera kit or, for example, a superzoom camera, and want a tripod that is really easy to carry with you.

Key features of the stand

• Load capacity 4kg
• Sirui B-00K ball head with TY-C10 quick release plate
• Includes a short center tube that can be replaced with a long center tube.
• Minimum working height without center tube 16cm
• Maximum working height with center tube up 132cm
• Made of carbon fiber

Feet

The legs of the Sirui Traveler 5C tripod consist of five parts and four twist locks. The twist locks open and close quickly, with only half a turn required. These locks are easy to use even when wearing gloves.

With the legs and center tube fully extended, the maximum height reaches 132 cm, which is sufficient for many shooting situations. The center tube can also be removed completely, giving a minimum working height of about 9 cm. This allows, for example, macro shooting at ground level or otherwise just close to ground level. There is a hook at the bottom of the center tube, to which you can attach, for example, a backpack to support the tripod.

The angle lock of the legs is adjusted using a spring-loaded lever at the base of the leg. The legs fold into three angles, and you can adjust the leg angle for each leg separately, making it easy to balance the tripod even on uneven terrain.

Two of the three legs of the stand have padding, which makes handling the stand comfortable, especially in low temperatures or wet weather.

Ball head

The B-00K ball head included with the tripod package has one locking screw for controlling and locking the ball head, as well as its own screw for locking the panning. The ball head's panning function with a scale makes landscape photography easier.

The ball head comes with an Acra-swiss compatible TY-C10 quick release plate.
