It has a slider switch that sets it to ON to Record. And the earphones has a + button and a - button that serve as volume keys, and a play and pause button. And a few other functions with a tap, hold, or double tap.

Overall, the mic pickup range and sensitivity are pretty good, about on par with a smartphone. I didn't thoroughly test the battery life, but hypothetically, it should last for many days at least and it has many hours of recording space... Enough to set it, drop it somewhere on a Friday and pick it up Monday for example. The magnetic back is pretty strong, it never slides down my fridge door.You can also stick it under a car dash or conference room table!

I was glad to learn that it does NOT use a specific proprietary app, adpater works for my phone and the files are recorded as 192kbps .WAV format. I can recommend it for anyone need a covert recording device.

I bought this to put on a slider, works great. Will probably end up getting on of their tripods.

My current tripod is a Manfrotto and while it is a good tripod, I was looking for something that was a little more versatile, lightweight but sturdy.I almost ordered a product twice the price but decided to take a risk on this one and i'm not disappointed.The tripod is stylish, easy to use, feels really robust yet reasonably lightweight.The mobile phone tripod mount also doubles as a secondary mount for a camera so means out of the box, you can have two quick release mounts and the mobile phone holder just gives that extra bit of versatility to the kit.Having the level on the ball head is a feature i didn't really expect to like but in fact its really helpful when setting up.I love the ease of use and I love the colours and styling.

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!

This tripod is a beast! Whilst it may not have the name "Manfrotto" or "3 Legged Thing" all over it, it is more than capable for it's price point!

Having switched to this from a similarly priced Manfrotto, albeit a much smaller tripod I am initially surprised with the similarly in quality.

Whilst the Manfrotto feels ever so slightly more refined, the K&F blows it out the park with height, versatility and ease of use!

I always found the Manfrotto locking mechanisms very small, fidgety and likely to give me small blisters from repeated adjustment. Whereas the K&F model has comfortably sized levers/screws.

The ability to dettach one leg and use it as a monopod is an excellent addition and the additional grip on this leg is nicely positioned and very comfortable.

The ability to move the main central point to a over the top arm for top down/lay flat is amazing! This creates much more potential, and having all this in ONE tripod is a bonus.

Overall this tripod feels very well built and feels like it will stand the test of time!

There are only three cons I can find!

- The included bag is not the greatest of materials and the added shoulder strap has plastic vs metal clips. However if your dedicated camera bag has space for a tripod this isn't an issue.

- The twist locks on each leg are plastic, however they do feel very strong and not flimsy at all. Being used to aluminium locks on the Manfrotto tripod I noticed this immediately.

- The springs that hold ratchet locks on each leg tight are a little flimsy, again being used to a different mechanism on the Manfrotto this bares no effect on quality and durability. If anything they are actually easier to release as the spring isn't extremely stiff!

Who would I recommend this to?

Anyone! This tripod is capable of meeting the needs of all photographers at all levels in my opinion! Whilst it may not be as rugged as some higher end brands, the fact remains that it is of very high quality and packed full of features. 10/10 for me.

Wow! That should say it all. This is the best tripod I have ever owned. My Manfrotto is going on Gumtree. Sorry Manny. I've also got a no name pan and tilt that doesn't even come close. I am 100 percent happy with it. The articulated boom is something I never thought I would need, now I don't know how I managed without it. A great buy at an unbelievable price.

Using the 77mm filter — from a videographer's perspective, here are my thoughts: Benefits: • Adjust exposure on the fly — I can adjust ISO, aperture value, and shutter speed while my subject goes into shade from direct sunlight using the orange Slide the controller. • I can adjust my ND strength while keeping my CPL in place. • Build quality feels great. • Great ND range for outdoors and sunny weather. • Works great with step-up adapters so I can use it on my smaller lenses. Cons: • I noticed some vignetting in certain lighting situations. • When adjusting the ND strength, the CPL filter is sometimes dragged and rotated. You can physically see the CPL rim rotating when you press the ND slider. Can be avoided by holding the rim while moving the orange slider. Would I recommend this product? Yes I would. I bought it for the floating ND slider that some other VND filters don't have. The ability to freely adjust the stops in sunny weather makes this product essential for my videography work.

Was looking for another tripod with a removable head so I can fit my Manfrotto fluid head onto. The tripod is super compact, lightweight and sturdy.

This tripod has allowed me to do overhead shots and amazingly it's holding my Panasonic GH5, but obviously you have to make sure you have the supporting leg in the same direction.

Overall I'm very happy with it and it's so versatile for many different scenarios.
