I like this head Ball, all the parts have a good quality.

little confusing at first (too many moving parts). Very sturdy and versatile tripod.

nice little tripod not liking the plastic parts but that can be changed out. good for light weight camera as is. over all not to bad.K&F Concept 60 Inch Camera Tripod, Professional Aluminium Tripod Monopod TM2515T with 360 Degree Ball

This tripod is a nice step up from the stick-leg style that I have been using. It adds quite a bit more stability and features for not that much more money. It's not as good as the higher end pro models, but I feel they made some decent compromises to keep the cost down while still maintaining features. The main parts of the tripod like the legs, cross support, and head are metal, but the leg clamps, hinges, and some other smaller parts are plastic. This affects durability, so you are going to have to take care of it if you want it to last. To that end, this tripod includes a really nice padded soft case for storing it in. The case even has a small interior pocket for storing accessories like the included shoulder strap and hex wrenches.The fluid head movement is smooth for both tilt and rotation, and the handle is pretty easy to position where you want it. I like the bowl set for leveling out the head, though it could be a little smoother when moving it. I think the rough textured paint finish might be causing the roughness. The tripod legs have rubber feet snapped on to ball ends that are fixed in place. I don't think they can be removed for adding on spike feet for outdoor use.The QR plate is similar in size to some other tripod and stabalizer plates I have (larger than Arca-style), and have a safety lock to prevent your camera falling to the ground when you loosen the QR clamp. The plate doesn't slide very smoothly in the clamp, again probably due to the textured painted finish. I own some other K&F Concepts products and they seem to do pretty well with picking decent quality products to put their brand name on. Overall, I'm pretty happy with this tripod.

You get what you pay for. It is functional but made from cheap materials and is weak.
I wouldn't risk putting a very expensive camera on this thing...
The head may not be a liquid head, but it's surprisingly easy to get smooth cocks while filming.
You just have to adjust the tension to get the resistance you need to keep the movement smooth.

If you have a relatively cheap camera and don't have the budget for a better tripod, I would definitely recommend this one. It gets the job done in a pinch, but don't expect a sturdy, high-quality product

In the past, when looking for inexpensive tripod heads with gears, we actually only had three to choose from. the GD3WH from Benro, the rather overpriced Manfrotto 410 Junior (not to mention that this head is really showing its age) and the Sunwayfoto GH-PROIIS. Now we have this $199 model from K&F. I had all three of these heads. The Benro is pretty good... for several months before the gears wear out and plastic parts break off. It's a well-functioning head, but cheaply made. The Manfrotto heads, which have been around for decades, are fine but lack the characteristics of more modern heads. It's not very smooth when you're trying to achieve really smooth movements, and the proprietary top plate is just plain annoying. Also, it becomes unstable after about a year of use. The Sunwayfoto is a solid head, but quick adjustments are a bit difficult to make. How does this new K&F device perform? In my opinion incredibly good. It is constructed like a take and consists mostly of metal parts. They have a standard ARCA Swiss top plate. Quick adjustments are incredibly easy with the spring-loaded adjustment collars, which simply snap back into the locked position once released. The spirit level is offset far enough that you can still see it when your camera is mounted on it. Something the others lack as it is obscured when you mount your camera. Basically, the K&F gear head solves all the problems I've had with all other budget heads. As a real estate photographer, having a sharp head is a must. Having used every other inexpensive specialty heads on the market, THIS one stays on my tripod. I think you will find that this will quickly become the most recommended geared tripod head on the market.

The tripod does the job, but the moving parts are cheap plastic. The second time I used it it broke. The manufacturer does not sell loose spare parts, I was only offered to buy the tripod again at a discount. I say hands off, because if a part breaks off, the whole tripod is no longer usable...
