had to upgrade tripod because of heavy lens just purchased tamron 150 600 and I'm impressed. Its plenty tall and the ball head is nice.had a worry from other reviews that it's hard to tighten to stabilize the weight but I have no issues at all.for the price it works well and no issues at all. I've had it for a few weeks now and was disappointed how the legs would slide on hard surfaces, after trying to remove the metal points on leg bottoms I discovered turning the rubber feet all the way out will conceal the metal points.if outdoors in grass or dirt just screw the rubber back out to expose the points ,now I'm happy again.

What I liked about this was how compact and light it is.
It worked well with my heavy telephoto lens Sigma 60-600mm which comes in at a little over 6lbs. There was no real drooping and it felt secure on the tripod.
This is a great accessory if you're going to be hiking, or traveling to keep your weight down on the gear that you're carrying.
It has a middle post. Some may or may not like that, but I really appreciate having the middle post to avoid having to extend the legs further. Especially depending on the terrain that I'm on and the space that I have.
I have 3 different K&F tripods that I have for different uses, and this one does not disappoint.

What I didn't like is that the ball head and parts are all plastic. While it's secure, and quality materials, I can be rough with gear like this, and there's a long term risk with that.

I don't have any other things that I don't like. I also want to add that while my dislike is due to the plastic material on the ball head, it does not disappoint in functionality. You're going to have a very difficult time finding a quality, light tripod that is going to hold a heavy lens anywhere near this price point.

With that price point trade off, long term viability is ok with me because it would not break the bank if I ever needed to replace it, or the ball head. I do have spare ball heads that are not plastic that I can swap out for this one as I have gimbals as well.

This product also performs when attaching my gimbal too it.

Overall, you're not going to be disappointed with this purchase.

like how stable this tripod given it’s a very light camera tripod. I use it with a 70-200 lens and a heavy body on it and it’s still stable even when used at its tallest configuration. Another important feature for me is that when you fold it, unlike many others it fits in your backpack and you won’t have to carry an additional bag.

Had to upgrade the tripod due to the heavy lens, just bought the Tamron 150 600 and am impressed. It's much big and the ball head is nice. Was concerned that it would be difficult to stabilize the weight based on other reviews, but I have had no problems at all. For the price it works well and no problems at all. I've had it for a few weeks now and was disappointed with how the legs would slip on hard surfaces. After trying to remove the metal dots on the leg ends I discovered that unscrewing the rubber feet completely hides the metal dots on grass or dirt just unscrew the rubber back out to reveal the dots, now I'm happy again.

A good all-round camera tripod that allows for camera stabilization in almost any position. Height adjustment is easy, allowing for easy leveling on uneven terrain. The tripod occupies a large enough space to be stable, but is reasonably sized so as not to get in the way at all times. The ball system allows the camera to be moved in a 360 degree sweep and pointed up and down. Bulky cameras might not be able to go straight up and down due to camera parts getting in the way, but most cameras can. The tripod is a little heavy, but much more stable than many lighter tripods. It makes a robust impression and should last for several years, even with heavy use. The ability to convert to a monopod comes in handy in some outdoor applications and it's nice to be able to switch between the two modes with minimal fuss without having to buy two systems. The practical soft carrying case is well designed and durable. The tripod slides easily back into the case, but there isn't a lot of extra space to store extra items. It provides good protection for the tripod from scratches, etc., but it has soft sides, so it does not prevent damage if heavy objects are dropped on it or it is bent. Overall, a good camera tripod that should be used for years to come. It provides good protection for the tripod from scratches, etc., but it has soft sides, so it does not prevent damage if heavy objects are dropped on it or it is bent. Overall, a good camera tripod that should be used for years to come. It provides good protection for the tripod from scratches, etc., but it has soft sides, so it does not prevent damage if heavy objects are dropped on it or it is bent. Overall, a good camera tripod that should be used for years to come.

This is a versatile light duty tripod. It's not going to support a heavy lens. For general use and travel it's a good buy at a very good price. The articulating column allows you to get into any position and any angle. Fully extended the bottom leg section is slightly wobbly but like anything else we make compromises. Overall it does punch above its price point. It does not allow the feet to be replaced with spikes. I wish it was available in carbon fiber.
