Sirui ST-124 Carbon Fiber Tripod with KS-30 Ball Head – Lightweight, High-Load Stability System
The Sirui ST-124 Carbon Fiber Tripod with KS-30 Ball Head redefines lightweight strength, offering photographers and videographers an exceptional blend of portability, durability, and professional-grade stability. Crafted with 8-layer carbon fiber, this tripod boasts a robust yet featherlight frame weighing only 2.6 pounds, ensuring effortless transport without sacrificing rugged reliability. Its innovative triangular center column design minimizes packed diameter, making it an ideal companion for on-the-go creators who need to maximize every inch of their gear bag. Reaching an impressive maximum height of 65.7 inches and collapsing to a compact 22.4 inches, the ST-124 adapts seamlessly to diverse shooting environments—from sweeping landscapes to urban adventures—while its minimum operating height of just 18.3 inches opens doors for dramatic low-angle compositions. Engineered to endure challenging outdoor conditions, the tripod features waterproof and dustproof twist locks that shield internal mechanisms from sand, debris, and moisture, making it the perfect ally for rugged terrain, beaches, or unpredictable weather.
Supporting an impressive load capacity of 26.5 pounds, the ST-124 easily accommodates heavy DSLR and mirrorless setups, telephoto lenses, and even portable lighting rigs. Its removable and reversible center column, enhanced with a built-in ballast hook, ensures stability for macro photography or complex multi-angle shots, while the retractable rubber feet and concealed metal spikes deliver steadfast grip on slippery or uneven surfaces. Complementing the tripod's powerful base is the Sirui KS-30 Low-Gravity Ball Head, a marvel of precision engineering constructed from durable aluminum alloy. With a weight of just 1 pound yet an astounding 44-pound load capacity, the KS-30 provides fluid, 360° panoramic rotation with a calibrated base and independent pan lock for pinpoint accuracy during landscape, architectural, or panoramic photography sessions.
The KS-30’s low-profile design strategically lowers the center of gravity, significantly boosting stability and locking force compared to traditional ball heads. Quick and secure camera attachment is effortless with its Arca-type compatible side-loading flip-lock system, while an integrated bubble level ensures perfectly aligned shots every time. Fine-tuning friction control empowers photographers to adjust tension precisely according to their camera setup, offering unparalleled responsiveness whether capturing fleeting wildlife movements or crafting careful studio compositions. Additionally, dual 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 accessory ports on the tripod's spider allow seamless integration of monitors, arms, microphones, or other critical gear, transforming this system into a mobile creative workstation.
Included with the Sirui ST-124 and KS-30 are essential extras such as a durable carrying case, a magnetic Allen key for quick adjustments in the field, a premium quick release plate, and a comprehensive 6-year limited manufacturer warranty, underlining Sirui’s commitment to long-term performance and customer confidence.

Features:
Triangular Center Column for Maximum Portability and Stability
The Sirui ST-124 features an innovative triangular-shaped center column, a major leap beyond traditional cylindrical designs. This engineering choice reduces the overall folded diameter of the tripod, making it more compact without sacrificing strength or stability. The unique geometry distributes weight evenly, improving torsional rigidity and minimizing vibrations during critical shots. It’s the ideal design for photographers and videographers who need serious performance in the smallest package possible, whether hiking, traveling, or navigating crowded city spaces.
8-Layer Carbon Fiber Construction for Lightweight Durability
Built with premium 8-layer carbon fiber, the ST-124 offers exceptional strength while keeping its weight to just 2.6 pounds (1.2 kg) for the tripod alone. This material choice provides high tensile strength, vibration dampening, and long-term resistance to environmental wear, unlike cheaper composites. Whether battling heavy winds on mountain tops or enduring the wear and tear of frequent use, the carbon fiber legs ensure that durability never comes at the cost of portability.
Waterproof and Dustproof Twist Locks for Extreme Conditions
The ST-124’s twist locks aren't just standard mechanisms—they're engineered to be fully waterproof and dustproof. This critical feature prevents water, dirt, sand, or debris from infiltrating the locking systems, which can often cause premature tripod failure in less protected designs. Photographers working in wet, dusty, or sandy environments—such as seascapes, deserts, or rainforests—can rely on this tripod to function flawlessly, maintaining smooth operation and solid locking action regardless of conditions.
High Load Capacity with Lightweight Design
Despite its compact size and lightweight build, the Sirui ST-124 supports a remarkable load capacity of up to 26.5 pounds (12 kg). This capability allows users to mount heavy DSLR or mirrorless camera bodies, long telephoto lenses, and even portable lights or microphones without worrying about stability or flex. Whether shooting professional landscapes, wildlife, sports, or detailed studio setups, the tripod remains rock solid, enabling sharper images and steadier video.
Retractable Spiked Feet for All Terrain Shooting
Sirui equips the ST-124 with rubber feet that conceal retractable metal spikes, providing unparalleled grip across diverse surfaces. The rubber ensures non-slip stability on smooth floors, rocks, or polished stages, while the spikes dig into softer ground like grass, gravel, sand, or ice. This dual-purpose design guarantees photographers can maintain tripod steadiness, reducing slips or vibrations across any environment or terrain.
Removable and Reversible Center Column for Low-Angle Flexibility
For macro enthusiasts, creative filmmakers, and low-angle shooting needs, the center column of the ST-124 is fully removable and reversible. This means users can get the camera incredibly close to the ground, allowing for unique compositions such as dramatic foregrounds, flower photography, insect shots, or creative upward perspectives. This flexibility ensures you never miss a creative opportunity, whether shooting indoors or out in nature.
Integrated Accessory Mounts for Expanded Creative Setups
On the tripod spider, Sirui includes dual 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threaded ports, enabling users to attach additional accessories like magic arms, LED lights, microphones, or external monitors directly onto the tripod. This transforms the tripod from a simple camera platform into a full creative workstation, perfect for hybrid shooters who need to manage multiple tools simultaneously without carrying additional rigs.
KS-30 Low-Gravity Ball Head for Enhanced Stability and Strength
The Sirui KS-30 Ball Head complements the ST-124 perfectly, featuring a low-profile design that significantly lowers the overall center of gravity. By keeping weight closer to the tripod apex, this ball head improves camera stability, reduces vibrations, and delivers a much stronger locking hold. The compact, sturdy profile prevents tilt or movement even under heavy loads, making it a crucial upgrade over traditional ball heads with a taller structure.
High Load Capacity Ball Head with Arca-Type Quick Release
With a load capacity of 44 pounds (20 kg), the KS-30 Ball Head supports even the most demanding camera setups, including medium format cameras, long lenses, and full rig systems. Its Arca-type quick release plate, combined with a side-loading flip-lock mechanism, allows for ultra-fast and secure mounting or dismounting of cameras, ensuring efficiency and safety on busy shoots.
360° Panoramic Base with Precision Control
The KS-30 ball head features an independently locking, 360° rotating panoramic base, complete with a precision-etched numbered scale. This setup provides buttery-smooth movement and highly repeatable adjustments, making it ideal for professional panoramic photography, landscape sweeps, or video panning shots. The separate pan lock and adjustable friction controls deliver fluid motion without unintended shifts, giving creators total command over their framing.
Integrated Bubble Level for Perfect Alignment
An embedded bubble level on the KS-30 ensures quick and accurate leveling without needing an external tool. This small but critical feature allows users to achieve precise horizons, level panoramas, and symmetrical compositions efficiently, saving time during setup and enhancing the professional quality of their shots.
Complete Professional Package with 6-Year Warranty
Sirui backs the ST-124 and KS-30 combo with a limited 6-year warranty, highlighting their confidence in the materials and craftsmanship of the product. Included accessories such as a magnetic Allen key for on-the-go adjustments, a durable carrying case, and premium quick release plates enhance the overall value, ensuring users have a comprehensive kit that’s ready for every challenge right out of the box.

It is so nice to see a small family owned shop instead of these big box stores. I generally felt cared about when getting my blackmagic cinema camera. Love the quality of the images and how easy it is to use.

This small business has the best customer service HANDS DOWN!!
Lucas worked with me diligently to help me find a camera that would fit my needs and that would arrive in time for my trip. I take photos, but wanted a smaller, more compact camera to take with me when traveling. He even reached out to other camera experts to make sure he was giving me the best advice for the equipment that would accommodate my needs!
Lucas was patient with me and was in constant contact with the camera supplier to keep me updated on the status of my order and when the items would be ready for shipment. Once my order arrived to the store, it was in my hands in less than 2 days. I would give 10 stars to this business if I could!!
SHOP SMALL! :)
AMAZING SERVICE!
In short: I was able to receive the black colorway below retail and free next day shipping with the promos that they offered for being a new camera web-shop based from AZ.
Long story: Lucas who is prolly the only rep for the company cuz they're so small is the best dude ever. Since i ordered he responded on emails and updates quicker than some of my friends texting me back about where am at on the list as people just kept cancelling their order. I went from 9th place in line to 4th place in line for the silver. And he hit me up saying that they were still waiting on Fuji to send shipping updates and that no company knows what they get on their weekly fuji shipments other than from a 24 hour window of receiving shipping details.
He then noted that there were two black X100Vs available that were reserved to customers who ordered but have not confirmed. I said if they dont confirm please let me know and ill take that instead of the silver. The next day he hits me saying the customer said to cancel and he sent me an invoice. I ordered accessories for the camera on amazon right after and my package for the camera came before my amazon package. Lucas was super nice and transparent about everything. Dope experience from NUZIRA.
Lucas was so incredibly helpful!!! I’ve genuinely never had better customer service. They offered to stay late so I could get my order and were so patient with all my questions. I would give them 10 stars if I could.

NUZIRA MADE MY MONTH!
I was a little concerned when I first came across this small business but I am so so thankful I di! They have the NICESt staff and customer service. I have been on the waitlist for this camera for a few months now so when Lucas called saying they had it back in stock I was so freaking excited! Made my whole month. This camera absolutely lives up to the hype. I love how lightweight it is. I can pop it into any bag and head out the door. the images are crisp, high quality, and stunning. I use film sim and not film sim. The film simulations are nearly identical to real film. I have another fuji camera that does film sim but it can't even be compared to this one. I love my Fujifilm X100v so much! Amazing camera! Thanks you Nuzira!
