Great vid! Subscribed! Also just an observation, I also have the Sirui P-204S and the spare bumper is for when you separate the monopod from the mini tripod, you can have a second bumper or spike to use on the monopod portion while keeping one on the mini tripod portion. Sweet! And it's actually pronounced soo-ray, for some reason. :)

Sirui is Japanese so you pronounce every written letter. "Si - roo - i " note the pronunciation of r' has a soft d' at the start and also that i' is pronounced like the way Monty Python says "We are the knights who say ni, ni!".

I am heading off to Africa in Feb and am looking for an ultra compact, lightweight mono/tripod. This unit looks good but I am concerned about the overall length. Once you disengage the tripod feet, what is the length of the main section. I need it to fit into my camera bag and must be under 16 inches. Also, it needs to accommodate my JVC GY-HM200 camera. Your thoughts?

Warning: I was going to buy from amazon, but saw a review about the awesome "6 year warranty". Sirui will not honor it if you buy there. Amazon is NOT an authorized dealer!!!!! Unfortunately i have to drive half way across the state of Minnesota to get to the "nearest authorized dealer, and they have none in stock! What a load of #$%! It will take them two weeks to get one in and I need it before then. What difference does it make? Are the amazon ones built to a lower standard? How does amazon get them to sell if they are "not an authorized dealer?" Looks lijke a great product and I want it but already frustrated with customer support before even purchasing it.
