Sirui ST-124 with VA-5. Your thoughts?

​

The ST-124 with VA-5 is running $200 on Amazon, I honestly may snag it. Does anyone shoot off the ST-124? Was primarily looking at it for just glass but just curious. Also how tall is it when fully extended when plate and adapter and binos?

I’m also considering this. It was also thrown around some threads. https://a.co/d/1O1R1Xq
