Carbon Fiber Camera Tripod 68''/1.7m Professional Photography Tripod with 36mm Metal Ball Head Load Capacity 16KG/35.2lbs X-Series X284C4+BH-36

extraordinary tripod, of excellent quality. It arrives home in a rather simple and not even particularly robust box. Let's say that the first impact was not the best. Inside, however, I found a respectable suitcase case, robust, very pretty and comfortable to carry. In fact, it has two practical handles held together with Velcro but inside the case I also find a shoulder strap so that the tripod can also be carried on the shoulder. Inside the case I found: - the tripod; - the shoulder strap; -3 hex keys;-2 small user manuals written only in English and Chinese. Although there is no translation into Italian, the instructions are understandable thanks to the numerous images that explain how to use the tripod but in fact everything is very intuitive. The first thing that struck me about this tripod is the quality of the materials, it is very sturdy but at the same time light and comfortable to carry around. Above all because it takes up very little space when closed, it is in fact just 50 cm long. But once opened it becomes enormous , opens easily and the length is incredible, reaching a good 175 cm. The legs can in fact be stretched into 4 different sections in order to adjust the height flawlessly and position the tripod even on steep terrain without problems. In the upper part it also has a practical level or bubble that allows me to position it perfectly straight. The legs are easily adjusted, just unscrew the wheel in correspondence with the section to be adjusted. The feet are completely rubberized and give stability to the tripod. he extraordinary aspect of this tripod is that it can be disassembled to create a monopod. In short, it is an extraordinarily well made product, definitely suitable for professional use and quite comfortable and versatile. So I recommend it without a doubt, the quality-price ratio is correct.

The carbon fiber in this tripod does an amazing job at keeping the whole thing very light and portable. The rest of the hardware (locking cams to extend the legs, adjustable center post) are also high quality, durable, and rugged.The included ball head is just ok though - it's fine, but not excellent. I likely will swap it out for one of my higher-quality heads, but for testing this tripod the included ball head is fine. It does fit common lock plates, and I had no trouble fitting my mirrorless camera with an existing lock plate onto the ball head. The ball head itself has what feels like a plastic handle, and a plastic ball. Also, the top plate was not securely attached when the tripod arrived, and even though it came with an allen wrench to tighten things, I *really* had to crank down on the center bolt in the ball head top plate to get it secured. The whole design of the ball head is... mediocre.The center post also has a sturdy hook where you can hang a sand bag or your camera bag to add some extra stability for a shoot. The ability to convert 1 leg into a monopod is a great feature, and is one that I've used extensively on some of my other tripods, so I was very glad to see that included.This tripod is an excellent choice when traveling, or whenever you need to save weight but still need a good tripod for your camera.

This Carbon Fiber Camera Tripod is built Solid, real Professional for Photography Awesome great tripod.

like using tripods when I'm taking photos at events. This tripod suits my needs very well. It comes with a carry case with short handles or a longer one that I can sling over my shoulder.The tripod height can be adjusted to your needs. The legs have a twist lock at are easy to extend and lock. The feet have a padded rubber that helps prevent the tripod from slipping. One of the legs can be removed to create an adjustable monopod.The top has a level. The metal ball head moves smoothly.The angle of the legs can easily be adjusted. I like that I can easily go from a wide base to a smaller base with easy.Overall this is a great tripod. It is lightweight and easy to set up and tear down.

previously had a Aluminium K&F tripod but I found it difficult to manage With my arthritic sausage fingers . So apart from the obvious stability requirement I was looking for a much easier mechanism to open up and adjust the tripod . I am sure there are much better Carbon fibre tripods out there but when you have a tight budget this tripod has it all, easy to use, solid enough for what I require and above all a in a good price range. I’m very happy with it as I have been with all K&F products that I have purchased.

The title really says it all but let me break down the best features.1. Carbon fiber makes this tripod strong and VERY light weight. I was really surprised how light it was while still able to support both my Nikon Z7II or Z9 with a heavy duty L-bracket. Some travel tripods dump the weight by using thin legs or plastic hardware. This doesn't do either of those things!2. As mentioned, almost all the non-carbon fiber parts are metal or heavy duty rubber. No cheap plastics or other compromises that limit performance.3. One leg screws off so you can use it as a monopod eliminating the need to carry both when you're packing light.4. It comes with a good ball head. Yes, we all probably have a few of these laying around but in case you don't, this setup comes with a really nice one.5. Comes with a case to keep it protected.OK nothing is perfect and there are a few things I'd like to see improved on but they're all rather minor.1. I'd like both the tripod and the monopod to extend higher. I'm a taller human, I like my gear to extend to at least 6'6" and this is close but not quite there. If that doesn't matter to you, no big deal.2. I'd like a little more rigidity when the tripod is fully extended. This might not be a problem for many people, especially those with lighter gear. Both of my cameras as larger and heavier than most and I have them outfitted with larger pro L-brackets. All this makes them heavy but well within the stated limits.Overall at this price point you're going to be REALLY challenged to find a better tripod for travel use than this one. I'm really happy with it and I'll be using it as my primary travel tripod for the foreseeable future.

Great compact tripod where the legs fold inwards for a smaller design. The leg heights are secured by twisting the lock for each length. I'm happy that this is compatible with my Peak Design's Arca plate so now I can use the clutch without removing it for the tripod. The ball head design is great cause it allows you to set the camera at any angle, including portrait shots. It is nice and sturdy and I am comfortable using it with my other equipment without any fear of it tipping over.

I've wanted a carbon fiber tripod for a long time and I have a lot of K&F concept equipment and am a huge fan because everything from this brand that I have got has exceeded my expectations of quality. I am absolutely thrilled with this tripod and as a content creator I use it every day. It's replaced my old aluminum one that was still nice, but this is just sooooo nice! Everything works very smoothly and the build quality is excellent and you can just tell the moment you pick it up that it's a high quality product.How My Star Rating System Works & What They Mean:1 STAR - Pretty much junk and I would return and ask for a refund if I could.2 STAR - It works, but barely meets the minimum requirements it should in order to keep it and not return it, but I would not order again.3 STAR - It does what it was designed to do, but there's nothing really special about it. It's acceptable but not great.4 STAR - I am very comfortable recommending it to a friend because it is is well made, durable, and delivers on its advertised features, and I would buy it again.5 STAR - I really love it. The item exceeds my expectations of quality, durability and functionality. Not only would I purchase it again, but I would also actively encourage friends and family to do the same.All of my reviews are my own personal opinion and are completely honest no matter if I receive an item for free or I pay for it. I am an avid kf concept shopper, as well as an kf concept Vine Voice and I personally rely on reading reviews to make all of my buying decisions, so I understand the importance of honest reviews from my peers.

Get it.Seriously, this is an awesome tripod. I say this a lot, but it's true: K&F has top notch products, and this is no exception. Carbon fiber is so much better in my opinion than aluminum tripods. This folds up really small, comes with a nice travel case, and is sturdy. 10/10 stars
