Sirui UltraLight T-004SK+KS-5: steady support for landscapes and night skies

Handheld framing gets tiring when a landscape calls for a careful composition or a night scene needs a long exposure. The Sirui UltraLight T-004SK+KS-5 pairs a five-section tripod with a KS-5 ball head, in a kit intended for steady work in the field. Its two-stage centre column and independently adjustable legs give you more than one way to position the camera, from a low viewpoint to a taller working height. For landscape photography, the KS-5’s panoramic base supports controlled changes in framing; for long exposures and astro photography, a stable platform keeps the camera still during the exposure. The same support is also useful for steady video, where a fixed camera position matters. The legs fold back around the head for a compact bundle to carry or store. The included head is Arca-type compatible and uses a flip-lock quick-release lever, so attaching or removing a camera is a direct operation rather than a fiddly adjustment. This is a focused tripod-and-head set for photographers who value flexible leg positioning and a compact fold, with a matched head already included.

Height, load and handling

• Five-section legs: Twist-lock sections extend and secure the legs. The multi-section layout gives you a range of positions while keeping the tripod compact when folded.
• Two-stage centre column: The quick-adjust column has two stages, so you can raise the camera without changing the leg setup each time.
• Adjustable leg spread: Choose between three leg angles, with each leg spreading independently. The removable centre column allows the legs to open fully for a low camera position.
• Reverse-folding legs: The legs fold back by 180° around the tripod, creating a compact shape for carrying and storage.
• KS-5 ball head: The head tilts through 90° and has two notches for moving the camera between horizontal and vertical framing.
• Panoramic base: A numbered scale and separate locking control give you distinct controls for setting and securing a horizontal pan.
• Flip-lock quick release: The supplied Arca-type-compatible quick-release set uses a large lever for attaching or releasing equipment with one hand.

Height and load

The tripod reaches a maximum working height of 147.8 cm and lowers to 21.8 cm for ground-level compositions. Folded, it measures 47.8 cm. The tripod supports a camera and lens combination weighing up to 5 kg, while the KS-5 head is rated for up to 10 kg; the tripod’s lower rating is the limit for the complete setup. Tripod and head together weigh 1.3 kg.
