At IBC 2024, Nino sat down with Sonny Liu of SIRUI to look at their two fully-featured tripods, the SQ75 with a VHS10 head and the prototype for their new 100mm version, the SQ100. Both tripods feature one-step height adjustment, a side-loading plate, and a quick-release system—all at a great price. Let’s have a look! We first wrote about the SIRUI SQ75 and the VHS10 here, and last month, my colleague Graham conducted a field video review of the SIRUI SQ75 tripod with the VHS10 head and went into even more detail. Of note is the VHS10 tripod head’s handle, a big, side-loading plate, a single knob and handle for adjusting the tripod’s height, and its 7-step counterbalance system. And let’s not forget about that price point! SIRUI SQ75 and SQ100 – One-step height adjustment The SIRUI SQ75 tripod features carbon-fiber twin leg tubes, which provide both stability and a lightweight design (the tripod’s weight with the head and ground spreader is 5kg/11 lbs). Each leg includes a side flip-lock mechanism for quick one-step height adjustments, and in addition, the tripod has a pull handle that allows the legs to extend or retract simultaneously for fast setup or breakdown. Sonny said that the maximum height for the SQ75 with the head is 1.8m/5.9 ft, and the expected height for the SQ100 will be approximately 2m/6.56 ft. The minimum height for the smaller tripod is 0.7m/2.3 ft. SIRUI SQ75 and SQ100. Source: CineD SIRUI SQ75 – side-loading plate Nino commented that...
