Just what I needed

Feb 10, 2015

I have a Sirui tripod (S-2205-N) and ball head (k-20x) that I use with my D800E. I find that adding a Wimberley Sidekick turns this into the perfect combination for landscape photography. The ball head and the sidekick give two axes of rotation making it easy to set up a shot. All that is missing is the ability to easily level the system to my horizons level. Adding this leveling base solves this perfectly. Inserting the LE-60 between the tripod ... Show More

B & H, helped me with picking out a leveling base.

Jul 6, 2016

After, explaining to B & H, what set up, I would like to be fixed up with, they recommended the LE-60 Leveling Base, for my heavy tripod legs and my GH2 Gimbal Head. The level will fit between the Gimbal head and the top of my tripod legs. It was an easy set up, I just took my time, as I am a 63 year old woman, who has just retired, and plan on great photos, with my new photography hobby. It will be easier on the sides of uneven roads or banks an... Show More

Great leveling base

Oct 26, 2015

This leveling base adjusts smoothly, tightens firmly and holds my Nikon D610 and heavy Tamron 150-600 with no trouble. I normally use my Nikon 24-120 for panoramics, and the bubble level on this base made things so easy when trying to level the tripod.The base moves around enough that I can have my tripod in some pretty crazy positions and still get it leveled by adjusting this base.I have a Gitzo tripod, but couldn't see spending the money it to...

Works as described...and fits my Sirui Tripod perfectly

Jul 14, 2017

I put this on my new Sirui T2205X tripod between the tripod and the fluid head. I am impressed with the build quality, the set screws to to affix the head against the ball assembly and keep it stable. I now own 2 Sirui products, the above tripod and the P324 S monopod. I am very impressed with the quality, instructions, parts and design of these products; I feel confident in these products, that they will perform well, are durable, reliable and won't be a source of failure with delicate cameras and lenses!

Highend finish

Sep 29, 2014

I selected the LE-60 over other options for two reasons, primarily because I do not believe the unit will suffer from contamination ingress at the joint, if you see other designs that could be an issue. I also like the Sirui brand that produces high end finished products. This leveler is no exception with precise engineering. I find the clamping secure albeit if you hang on a gimbal head you can override it, but that is far exceeding load limits. It's a good product if a little expensive.

Well Made Sturdy on the Level

May 17, 2016

I purchased this device to help me capture a series of images to create a panoramic scene with all images being anle to be aligned on the same plane. I believe this will do the job. I haven't used it in the field yet, but in testing it out, the camera locked into a level position without any shift as i secured the camera (tightened the camera) in place, and panned across a scene outside my house.

Love it!

Jan 17, 2016

A FANTASTIC addition to help me transition from photo to video. I bought this for my Manfrotto 058b, and then got a second one for my backup tripod. The movement is very smooth, and it holds a ton of weight: at the moment I've got it holding a Kessler quick release plate, an Edelkrone slider with two motorized attachments, a Manfrotto head, and a DSLR & lens in a cage. Really terrific.

Leveling base is good, but...

Nov 15, 2017

it appears to have been returned and sold as new. Small scratches on top and bottom as well as fingerprints and grime. It cleaned up OK or I would have returned it. This is the second time in the past several months that I've received an item from B & H that was obviously returned and sold as new. B&H, not cool. If it happens again, I'll close my account.

Great product except for the knob to tighten the base.

Jun 5, 2016

The Sirui Le-60 leveling base is everything I expected except for the tightening the base once it is in position. I have to really bear down on the short lever to get the base locked. I would have to say that I am having to use way to much pressure to achieve the desired lock. I wonder how long it will last before it breaks and then what?

Bubble disappeared

Jun 21, 2019

After having the leveler for about a year I went to use it and the bubble had disappeared. I returned it to Sirui and after about three weeks had it back, fixed and working. Sirui warrants these for six years which is good. Hopefully we wont have a recurrence of the missing bubble.

Excellent Quality

May 29, 2017

I originally bought the Sunwayfoto DYH-66i but it didn't fit my Sirui tripod -- it would not tighten all the way down. I bought the Sirui Leveling Base and it fits all my tripods. Although it does not have tension control, it is stiff enough to allow for subtle corrections.

Exceptional Product

Apr 13, 2016

If you're looking for a leveling base that is very well made, and easy to use, this is the one. I use it with a Nodal Ninja panoramic head, which very difficult to level using the tripod legs. Using this leveling base makes the task extremely quick and easy.

Very happy with purchase.

Mar 1, 2017

Read many reviews of this and other levelers and I am happy I chose the Sirui. The bubble level is right on and I really appreciate the damping feature when setting level. It cost more than others but very worth it to me.

Disappointed

Oct 31, 2016

Out of the box defective. The bubble of the leveler totally not centered by far when the LE-60 was leveled. Can be used only if your head has it own leveler. Could be a bad copy.

Works as expected my only observation is the level bubble not enough contrast hard to read in daylight.
