What is it that you like about it? The marketing description at B&H starts with, "The ST125 ST-Series Carbon Fiber Tripod with K-10X Arca-Type Ball Head from Sirui is designed with mirrorless cameras in mind."
I have been helping shoot a documentary this year. It includes using some heavier duty Manfrottos that have flip locks on the legs. I've grown to dislike them, but don't know if twist locks would be better.
Based on B&H reviews, the Sirui you picked is very good. If it were me, I would order it and the "Peak Design Aluminum Travel Tripod". I would compare them and return the one I don't like. Those two seem to top out in all the reviews at B&H.
One odd question about the Sirui was that the foot spikes can't be removed and it is possible that airport TSA agents might not let you carry on your tripod!

Thanks for the reply. To answer your question, I guess I like it for the dozen or more reviews I watched on YouTube of experienced landscape photographers that love it. As for B&H marketing Iβm guessing that the mention mirrorless because thatβs the βfutureβ of photography and want to sell tripods? Thank you for the Peak Design idea, I will give them another look. π
