Looks like a very promising piece of gear, good size, good ergonomics, and no silly center column. Excellent review. Appreciate it. I think I'll pull the trigger on this guy.
You're videos are so calming. Having kids, I usually watch my favourite YT channels during breaks from work or family and I usually turn off the sound. But with your videos I always feel the urge to turn up the volume.
So glad to hear that mate! I strive for the calm feeling in my videos, but I don’t want them to be boring, and there’s a fine line there😁
Thanks for watching my videos, I really appreciate it!
holy shit... you're the first guy I've seen to pronounce Sirui as it's written.
Another video 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Yaaas!🤟🏼📷
Man, I was looking for travel tripods because I'm going to northern Sweden next month and I stumbled with your video, so convinient! Thanks for the review, very helpful.
Haha such a nice coincidence!! Hope you’ll have a good time 😃
I'm so amazed by your photography and videography. I'm a second-year film student and your style is a big inspiration. I've made a film plan for a documentary that I've been wanting to shoot for years now and I am going to start soon. I feel comfortable in pre-production and the directing side of things, but I really want to get better at handling the camera too. Is there a possibility that you could make a tutorial on how you do your editing? Specifically, the color grading is so beautifully done. As someone not so experienced in using the camera (yet), it would be very interesting to see how you put everything together.
Thank you for creating this beautiful art and I'm excited to follow your journey!
Thank you so much for sharing! And I’m really glad I inspire you, that really means a lot to me.
I might cover that in a video someday🙏🏻
Keep making these! Just amazing!
thank you for the review!! i'm looking for a good little tripod for some portrait photography and this video might've just shown me the one i need!
It looks very handy! Nice video again Olle. I also have almost the same but from Benro.
Thanks mate!!
That’s nice, love compact tripods!
Great video, I have a osprey hiking 26L back which im traveling with in asia, and I bought a cooling back and cut the handels off so i could holde my camera and two small lenses
Hello, I need your help. I would like to know which Sirui tripod or tripod model you showed first, which is not suitable for travel and if that model goes well with the Sirui ph-10 Gimbal Head. Thanks, I love the content of your channel...
Hello Olle, thanks for your review. I am thinking of buying this tripod for long exposure landscape with a Fuji X-T2 and XF 10-24mm lens. I expect to do over 1 minute long exposure shots. Do you think this tripod will be stable enough if there is a little wind?
If anyone here has experimented long exposure with this tripod in windy conditions I am interested to know how it went.
Regarding your question about your bag, I have traveled with photo gear in such non-photography dedicated bags, and I usually protect my camera and lenses in between clothes, the camera being on the top. Other solution to declutter your backpack is to buy a medium size hip pack to store your camera and one lens, it is very handy. Cheers.
hope your trip to Sweden was great! this tripod looks like something to consider but once I saw the price tag I was a bit turned away... can you recommend one similar to this but maybe not as costly?
To pack your lenses in a normal bag I use a sock to put the lenses in so they won't get scratched :)
That’s smart! Thanks for sharing ☺️
@@ollenilssonen No problem man XD
I bought a tenba byob 10 camera bag insert that I put into my osprey bag for a trip. It worked out great. I could fit my sony a1 with a 100-400mm lens attached inside. A 200-600 might fit without the camera attached but not sure.
That’s a great tip! I’ll look into it. Could you pack clothing and food? I feel like these ICUs are so big.
Thanks for the tip!
@@ollenilssonen I could pack the tenba with my camera and 3 lenses. I had enough space in the top of my bag to hold another 2 tenba byob 10s. But I also use a large osprey aether 65 pack. Just depends on what you need to bring and what bag you have.
Appreciate the help man. Thank you!
I have a Tenba 9 today, works great for smaller lenses!
You should do right reviews of compact cameras or cheap camera gear, that would be awesome video idea in the future and not always smartphones. You can do whatever makes you happy.
Love the video man. I will also be going to the North, Tarfala instead, but would be nice to meetup and do some landscape shooting if you up for it, I am Stockholm based. Cheers mate.
Thanks for sharing.
Good stuff, man! I'm actually shopping for compact travel tripods right now so this was helpful.
Recently purchased the Shimoda Action backpack for my adventures and it's been the best backpack investment ever. That thing fits all my camera gear comfortably for traveling and hikes. Cheers!
Glad to hear mate!
The Shimoda Action series looks sooooo good. I've been looking at them aswell. :D
@@ollenilssonen highly recommend! I took it for hiking throughout Zion National Park and it was nothing short of great.
Wow nice video :) where are you going up to north? I am trying to understand where to go (here in Sweden) around 20th September. Any suggestions? My goal of course is to stay in the middle of nature and take some good shots of wildlife:) if you have any suggestions please let me know :) you could help me a lot
I pack my camera grear in drybags, and in the topp off the bag then i juse 2x sittning mats to projekt the grear. I also have the camera holder from
Peak Design Capture Camera V3 Black on the bag.
I fit my camera 24-105 f4 Rf with my Canon eos Rp in a 5L drybag from Sea to summit. Then i have a 8L Drybag for my sigma 150-600 and a 3L bag for batteris filters memory cards and so on.
Packing in dry bags are handy! Especially if the have different colors, really easy to organize!
Will definitely get a package of those!
Nice video
( Soo Ray ). BTW.
I have seen your camera review on Xperia 1 Mark iii. Do you recommend this smartphone for advance level smartphone photography? Currently I'm using Samsung s21 ultra and after seen your video, I am started thinking to upgrade the smartphone to Xperia 1 Mark iii.
Please respond.
I can really recommend it as an advance smartphone camera. I'm sure the s21 ultra works fine for that too though!
if you dont know much about manual control I also not recommend it unless you want to learn the manual mode. learning the manual control is fun but it's takes time to master. I watched lot of photography videos to learn the manual mode and it's worth it..

Hi Ollie, Thanks for your review as I'm actually looking at this very tripod right now. BTW, What is your normal, heavy-duty tripod that you showed at the beginning of the review? Cheers.
Hey!
I use a Sirui N3213X😃 it should be linked in my description in my later videos!
You have a Zv1 ??
Why haven't you made a photography review of it? 😭
Haha yes!
The thought haven’t really got to me. But I might do a photography review of it!!
I have one of this, but I don't like it, my A7RIV turn down because of this tripod and because this, I need to send my sigma 24-70 to fix, and I expend 250 euros on the fix 😰
Interesting!
Wonder how this compares to the Sirui A-1205
i have that tripod, it's very good!
Hi, is the tripod waterproof?
This actually looks like a nice budget option!
I use the PeakDesign travel tripod, which is way more expensive and about 1.5 times heavier (1.56 kg for the Aluminium and 1.29kg for Carbon), but the form factor is actually a bit smaller as far as I can see, and you get an extra 30+ cm of max height and the central pole. I'm also less of a twist-knob guy, prefer the levers which are easier to open.
Nice vid! keep it up! Been following you since your appearance on Peter's channel!
I really think it is!
The Peak Design one looks so nice also. I love their stuff, you pay a premium price tag though, but so worth it!
Glad you’re here mate, appreciate it!
@@ollenilssonen
Yeah - PD is definitely not cheap - but you get what you pay for. Plus their customer service is top notch!
Regarding tips on carrying stuff in a backpack - I think the best idea would be to get a proper hiking photo backpack, like MindShift 26L/36L or 45L.
They are super comfy, and pack a lot of photo gear and also hiking gear.
I recently got the Mindshift Elite 45L for my flight to Iceland this year - and it was AMAZING! (also qualifies as carry on luggage).
Alternatively - if you don't want to invest a lot of money in a full blown bag, consider ICUs based on the equipment you need to carry. Once again - Peak Design, MindShift, f-stop, Shimoda - all have great ICUs available for purchase, in different sizes and configurations. I'm sure you can get cheaper ones, but these are meant for protecting your precious gear, so paying some extra seems logical to me.
hello, can this tripod hold a 2kg lense on position too or will it tilt down by itself?
It can hold in position. But it’s not really ideal😊
@@ollenilssonen ok thanks for the quick answer 🙂
How do you edit your photos
Is gopro go with this tripod
Hello bro 👍
Hey mate!
I pack my camera in a osprey pack with the f stop icu
Been looking at those, what size do you have of the ICU?
@@ollenilssonen I use the pro small for Fuji xt2 10 24 55 200 and a 9 mm and some times I use a 18 80 f 4
@@ollenilssonen If it is raining I use a dray bag on the icu and backpack cover
