install a UV filter on all my lenses. Turns out my 70-300 flew naked!! So I chose this 67mm filter to protect the front elements. I do a lot of travel shooting as well as weddings and protection from bumps and such is key. It's far cheaper to replace a filter than an entire lens! This filter element offers a neutral passage while protecting the front glass and the threads of the expensive lens. Recommended!

I'm a tripod guy - I have at least a dozen. I have compact models for travel, large rugged models when I need a rugged model, carbon fiber, aluminum and a combination. After using this tripod a few times, you'll find that whoever designed it took the best qualities of several tripods and combined them here - although some have escaped them.

All dials and buttons are aluminum, not plastic. This is really nice and adds years to the life of the tripod. Plastic buttons eventually break. They break if bumped too hard. Aluminum has dents or scratches, but it doesn't shatter like plastic.

All hardware (connecting screws, nuts, bolts) is rust-free.

The included ball head is pretty damn nice too. It has the thicker 3/8-24 thread typical of a tripod head. The plate is an Arca-Swiss style sliding plate and the camera screw has a built in thumb lock for hand tightening. No tools (or coins) are required. The plate can be detached and slid back and forth, but will not slip off the head. It takes almost two full turns of the locking knob to fully disengage the panel. Kind. There is also a built-in soap scale. The ball mechanism is in a Teflon pocket and is therefore smooth-running.

At the top of the tripod (where the head attaches) is a reversible screw - 1/4-20 for cameras or 3/8-24 for tripod heads. The top orange collar ensures it stays in place. It's all hand tightened, so it's possible to twist the ball head off without realizing it. There are no locking screws to fix the tripod head. The best way to attach the head is to remove the double ended screw and collar. On the tripod head, loosen the large locking wheel and move the plate to the 45-degree position (so it sticks in the notch.) Turn the tripod mounting screw until it stops — it's actually pushing against the ball at this point. Now turn up the orange collar. Loosen the screw half a turn. Tighten the collar as tight as possible (no tools!) Now twist and tighten on your head. You'll find that it's a lot harder to accidentally spin off.

Anyway, a great tripod, a little heavier compared to compact or carbon fiber models, but a good choice for all-round use. Also, it is very convenient to switch to a monopod in less than a minute.

Am using Canon 6d mark 2 with a heavy 70-200 mm lens and it works well for me!The tripod has good build quality, is very steady even for heavy equipment , is lightweight, folds up very small, easy/fast setting up and comes with a nice carrying case. Good deal for the price!

Bought for RF24-70. Fits very well and is additional protection for me

The adapter ring is perfect. But of course everything is mechanical, I use it with my nx300 and a Sigma 70-300 lens (Canon mount).

I have a crap filter. Discovered for me some time ago. I use this model on my Canon RF 24-70 2.8 to create a dreamy look. Of course, you can also fix this later by editing, but I like using the filter directly on the lens. The processing is impressive and the photos also look pretty. Because the price is also right, I'm happy to give it the full 5 stars. Of course, I also make a purchase recommendation.

This is my fourth, Vine and purchase of K&F filters after my first Vine listing. I found that it is a quality filter. I got this for the Tamron 70-300 that I got on Amazon a month ago. I didn't realize this one also came with a UV and had already gotten one. I used to only get B+W in my working days, but in retirement I have to budget more carefully. I've found that these K&F are virtually indistinguishable from them and these are now my filters.
