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 did a lot of research and was previously convinced that this would be perfect for my hybrid photography.
One should buy fluid head and that is the most economical in price but not in terms of quality.
I thought of Manfrotto BeeLive but it was too light and no monopod possible.
positives:
+ Very very sturdy
+ When extending 171cm from 191cm as a monopod
+ Panning is very smooth
+ Tilting is smooth as well
+ Ease of use
+ Good looking
+ We can fully control the rigidity of both axes of movement with the given screw knobs.
+ Can easily turn down the liquid head for a close-up shot
+ Can easily hang more weight with the hook to make it more stable.
+ Economical, half the price. Hold the liquid head and

If you want to use L-Bracket, you need to buy an adapter, the included quick release adapter perfectly fits any camera with 1/4 or 3/8 screw, but it is wider than common L-Bracket 39mm x 10mm.
3kg weight was not a criterion for me. Manfrotto BeeLive is 1.4 kg, but certainly not more robust. What I needed
was certainly a monopod.

- One will find it a bit confusing to balance with built in two mind levels. But you will soon learn.
We need to use the lever to pull so that the ball head will start tilting.
- The quick release plate could have been longer, 150mm instead of 100m which is supplied. It would have made the camera more stable with a longer lens. This would have made Panorama much better.

As a final criticism, I am very satisfied with the tripod and am looking for a long pleasant working with it.
I recommend it without hesitation.

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!

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.

The head is fluid, it is more stable than another one I had (Manfrotto). Pleasant to handle. I appreciate the copper orange color which is reminiscent of color with the ring of the Sony a7

I needed a lighter stand than my big manfrotto 055 with its video head and this K&F TM2324 does the job very well. In terms of qualities:- Solidity: Once installed, it doesn't move. You can attach a little ballast to it if necessary, but nothing moves- Folds and unfolds perfectly with its feet which swivel 180° to stay in a contained space.- Its head, classic but very practical. I stick an A7III, microphones, a cage and it holds well. - The possibility of returning to the head and its section for photos between the feet (low to the ground, macro ...) As it is an affordable foot , you have to be aware that you are not on carbon, so the weight is affected a little, but not more than that. Highly recommended
