Long exposure. At first I hardly used it, now I'm a huge fan. I shopped around and found the perfect tripod (carbon-fiber Manfrotto, also great). When that arrived, I mentioned to my friend I was planning on getting waterfalls with a slow shutter speed, and he said, "You gotta ND filter, right?" I knew I had a trip up to Letchworth coming up that weekend. That evening I rushed onto Amazon, shopped around, and found this product. Perfect size for my Zeiss 50mm and 35mm!

I didn't really get the chance to mess with this ND filter until I arrived at Letchworth and wow was I blown away! The crisp rolling ring and the crisp shade of black make this such an incredible product. So worth the price! I'm blown away by how it doesn't degrade the quality of my captures my lenses can get.

I love long exposure now. With my lightweight tripod and my filter, I can only grow.

I included a picture of a covered bridge in Cuyahoga Valley National Park taken with this filter. It was a eight second shutter speed.

On the search for an all-round tripod that is light and inexpensive, after a long search I found what I was looking for in this tripod. It is well thought out, high quality and very functional. Can be folded to 45 centimeters, ideal for the backpack. It is quite stable and is quickly raised. With me even over 170 cm. In addition to my cell phone and scope, it also holds my Panasonic Lumix 2000. It only wobbles when the shutter is released, unless you hold the tripod with one hand when the shutter is released. For the price and the multiple possible uses, I give it a clear buy recommendation.

The complete small set arrives in a small neutral box. In addition to the basic tripod, there is a small bag made of a kind of Oxford material with which you can transport the tripod. A small plastic bag also contains a small Bluetooth trigger with the associated strap and a screw-on holder for the smartphone. A user manual for the tripod in English and Chinese as well as a small manual for the Bluetooth trigger complete the picture. The basic tripod weighs around 890 g without attachments, which is quite light for such a tripod. When folded up optimally, you reach a length of around 32 cm and a diameter of about 10cm. Ideal to take with you on hikes or excursions. The three legs can be folded down in three stages (approx. 30°, 45° and almost 90°). In this way, a minimum height of around 35cm can be achieved. The legs have three extensions that can be pulled out and locked in place. So you can balance the tripod very well on sloping and uneven floors. A small spirit level on the tripod would have been ideal for this, but unfortunately it was not used. The rubber foot must be turned to the left, then all three extensions are released and can be adjusted. The set length is locked by turning it briefly to the right. However, the structure of the legs and the lock is kept quite simple and does not make a very stable impression. During the test, it happened to me again and again that a segment or even a whole leg pushed itself back in. If you pull out the three legs fully and spread them slightly, you will reach a height of around 107cm. The middle rod can also be set in three positions. Locking and releasing also works as with the tripod legs. If the middle rail is also fully extended, you get a maximum height of around 168cm, which is quite impressive for such a small tripod. When fully extended, however, the low weight becomes noticeable, the tripod is not very stable and tends to wobble slightly, especially in strong winds. It is therefore not suitable for long exposures. To attach a camera or lighting fixture, the tripod has a simple ball head that can be continuously tilted up to 90°. Compact cameras, small bridge cameras or at most one small system camera can be easily and securely mounted on it, heavier cameras such as DSLR or video cameras are definitely too heavy for the system. If you loosen the lower cover on the center drive, the middle rod can be removed and used as a selfie stick or small monopod A smartphone can also be attached using the included adapter. This can be mounted either horizontally or upright, for which two tripod threads are available on the adapter. The mobile phone is attached by spring action, the retaining clips are rubberized. A minimum of 6 cm and a maximum of almost 9.5 cm width can be inserted as a smartphone. The shutter release provided is also intended for use with the smartphone. Using Bluetooth, it can be easily integrated into a mobile phone as an input device. The two applied triggers are labeled Camera 360 - IOS and Android, but both buttons have the same function. With my cell phone, the shutter release didn't work at first, only the zoom was activated. After trying out the camera settings, I found the culprit. You had to switch the function of the volume buttons from zoom to shutter, then it worked without any problems. Conclusion: A small, light universal tripod for small mobile technology. From around 35cm to almost 170cm, practically all heights are possible. It is very well suited for light lighting equipment, small cameras or mobile phones. Tripod, lighting stand, selfie stick, etc. are just a few areas of application. I would not recommend it for larger and, above all, heavier DSLR cameras or video cameras due to the low tripod weight and, above all, the not quite optimal locking. The last known price was €45, which is definitely justified for this little universal genius. Due to the not optimal locking, I award a good 4 stars.

do a lot of landscape photography, and while shutter speeds often allow hand-holding, there's a distinct, visible advantage to tripod-mounting your camera. Not only does it reduce vibration, it also allows different shutter speeds to be used without risk of camera shake for flowing water, for example. I have several tripods, some sturdier (and hence heavier) than others, and usually have a mid-weight tripod in my car. This K&F Concept tripod is what I would consider mid-weight, at 1.8kg, yet it is sturdier than I expected for that weight.The tripod is made of carbon fibre, which gives it strength without too much weight, and it looks good! The tripod comes with a metal ball mounting head that will support cameras up to 16kg. At first, I thought the tripod would be more suited to videography, but using it for photography with my Nikon Z-series and a big telephoto lens, I think it works for both quite well. It extends out to 68 inches height, and can work as both a tripod and a monopod. Not all photographers like ball heads (they have their advantages and disadvantages) and I did replace the ball head with a three-axis head for a while, but I kinda like the ball head on this tripod.I've been using the tripod for a couple of weeks so far, and I like it. It doesn't weigh much, so is easy to move with me in a shoulder bag, and it has proven to be a solid mount so far. I like the look of the tripod, too. It is not a cheap tripod, and there are competing models on the market, but the combination of carbon fibre and easy of portability makes this a tripod to use every day.

We went to Canadian rockies this summer and we were looking for a light weight tripod & a selfie stick to capture our family photos. After researching a few options, we finally bought this. It is light weight, fits in backpack and folds to a really small size. I charged it and paired easily with my Google pixel phone and the remote shutter button worked flawlessly. The remote shutter part can be easily detached and can be used as a small handheld button - which is very useful when using in tripod mode. It's easy to fold, set up as tripod and the grip is firm. Supports good rotations for any angle you want to set. I would recommend this to others, I found it reliable.

Great tripod however came without the Bluetooth clicker, I don’t know how to contact the seller either
