I am very happy with the smoothness and sturdiness of this fluid head tripod! The tilt and pan are both very smooth as advertized! My zoom lens is very heavy so I needed the tri pod to be able to carry the load well. The bag it came seems sturdy as well. I'll be putting this equipment to the test for sure!

I’m using this ball head on a monopod. Size is great for the monopod but using it with a heavy lens you’ll have to really tighten the knobs.
Better used with smaller lenses.

Looking for a light and compact tripod for organizing a trip, I came across this one, barely 1kg300 for 38cm folded. It also carries the possibility of making a monopod very quickly, which will be interesting to capture an image in a place where the tripod would not have been possible.

For this small build, the tripod is very solid, since it easily supports the weight of my 6d mark ii with its grip and its two batteries + a sigma 70-200. (even with the articulated arm deployed).

The legs of the tripod have 5 sections, which allows it to go from around 35cm to 155cm and the central column can be reversed to allow the device to be placed at ground level!

It comes with a carrying bag, an extension for the monoball monopod, a ball head with an "arca swiss" type quick plate which allows the lens to be attached directly to the ball head without using the quick plate (see photo 4).

In conclusion, a purchase that I do not regret and which for its price is more than qualitative.

I state that I already have a Manfrotto 546GB with a 504HD head (great headstand), I needed a second tripod but I had no intention of accessing a mortgage to buy it... so I will compare it to this...
what can I say I was amazed at the quality... I was expecting a cinesata but had to change my mind, large size, closed it is the size of a photo tripod, it has a fantastic carrying case, a liquid head with different adjustments, adjustments, bubbles, etc., dimensions during use both in height and in perfect dimensions, possibility of using them as a monopod.

Let's go to the dark side...
The weight is definitely not light, the head I still say good does not have all the Manfrotto head adjustments, for example the adjustable clutch for horizontal movement... which is present on Manfrotto and is not present here... but we always consider the price, the boom for moving the head is a little short and not telescopic, there is no three-foot base in monopod mode, so you get tired of holding it in place for long-term use. The hooks for tightening the tripod rods seem undersized to me, but it still does their dirty work.
Conclusion Manfrotto is still Manfrotto... but this Cayer surprised me.
... And good!

Best for the price.
I would buy it again right away.
When I think about what my Manfrotto with ball head cost me before!

at the top used as tripods in portrait mode or perfect tilt monopod, everything is good and yet I have several other brands but this is the one that is the most versatile and transportable.

The tripod is two pounds lighter than the one I had been using and much shorter when collapsed. I really like that! However, when I tilt the camera head towards the locking nut, there can be interference with the base of the quick release plate. I've discovered that you can pull out the spring loaded handle to reset its location but there are two issues with doing that. 1. Its tedious and with my big hands, hard to get in there, and; 2. I'm right handed and it seems like the handle was placed on the wrong side. I have to work it with my left hand. Turning the camera around to swing the handle to the right puts it ahead of the camera where it's difficult to see, not to mention that the ball slot (used to clear the ball stem and tilt the camera forward) is now at the back of the camera. Pretty much useless there unless you take photos of the sky. I considered swapping out the Manfrotto ball head from my other tripod as it has the tightening handle at the rear, easily accessible but I felt like I would lose the weight advantage. So, I probably wouldn't have bought this if I had know how inconveniently placed all the control/tightening handles were, but again, I do like the weight savings.WEEKS LATER: After using this tripod for awhile I’m getting used to avoiding the design issues that caused the interference. However as a product designer myself I recognize that “workaround” should not be in a design engineers vocabulary. K&F contacted me and told me they have discussed the design issues with the team. As a result I’ve added a star to the rating.
