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!

Good stable tripod and like the phone mount plate that's class !!

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.

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.

Overall I'm happy with the tripod, at the moment I want to use it for shooting slides. is so big that I can no longer open the battery and memory card compartment on the camera (MFT) and I have to detach the "quick release plate" from the camera every time I change. I have Tried using a small square quick-release plate (like those used on SLR cameras in the past), but the plate mount on the new tripod is a millimeter too small. remains cumbersome (memory card in , screwed quick-change blade,

lost my original adapter plate on a trip and ordered this. The delivery was on time and it fits exactly as it should on the tripod. Satisfied.

everything fits me without play, even the tripod thread (Manfrotto plate) - at least here there is nothing against the replica and 70 euros more in your pocket ;) (by the way, Canon has a cashback campaign until the end of January 2017 - give me 75 credit for the next purchase (that 22mm lens) and 35 cashback on the lens ... so I get the part for 105 euros;)
