SIRUI photographic equipment company was founded in 2001, from which it collaborated with a renowned international photographic company in the early years, producing high-end photographic equipment of superior quality. With the enriched technique and experience accumulated over the years, SIRUI started to develop its own brand and technology from 2006 on. By continuously investing in the advanced tooling and precision machining in concert with a well-trained design and engineering team, SIRUI is able to develop its own assembly line and is completely independent in all stages of design, manufacture and assembly. In 2006, SIRUI built a 20,000 square meter factory as its specialized production facility.
In 2007, SIRUI successfully passed ISO9001/ISO14001 quality standards and received the appropriate qualification certificates. As a result of our commitment to quality and performance, SIRUI has become one of the most popular and well respected brands in China and a rising star in oversea markets. SIRUI insists that each product is meticulously made and designed to be best in class.
If you’re a traveling photographer, a big problem is having a tripod when you need it! That’s why SIRUI created the SIRUI T-X Series of tripods. SIRUI T-X Series tripods are our most compact, full-size tripods and were specifically designed with the traveler in mind.
For easy storage and transport, the tripod can fold as small as 13.4 in (465mm.) - and weighs as little as 2.1 lb (1 kg)! You can easily fit a T-XE tripod kit into a backpack, camera bag or carry-on luggage!
The T-XE Series tripod kits have a unique leg mechanism that allows you to fold the legs up 180°. This allows the tripod to be folded significantly smaller than comparably sized tripods with conventional leg designs.
Simply depress the leg angle lock and invert the legs 180°. An added advantage is that you can keep a ball head on the tripod and it will still fit in the compact carrying case that’s included.When you need a full-sized, full-featured tripod that’s designed to be used under a wide range of shooting situations, look no further than the SIRUI T 1005X tripod.

This money is collected by your government and none of it comes to us. Please check with YOUR postal or customs authorities to determine the amount and reporting requirements.
