I nearly got the T-1204x, but 5 section legs, less low height and shorter max height than the T-1004x made me choose the latter. (and the Slik is taller than them both)
Anyway, just use the T-1004x since I've already got it.
T-1204x is 4 sections carbon fiber. T-1004x is exactly the same, just aluminum legs.
T-1205x and T-1005x are the 5 section ones... just look at the last digit of the model number.
If you went carbon fiber T1204x, the tripod specs will be exactly the same as your T-1004x, just that it will be lighter by 300g.
