I’m using this ball head on a monopod. Size is great for the monopod but using it with a heavy lens you’ll have to really tighten the knobs.
Better used with smaller lenses.

I like the stability of the tripod. Its not light weight but not so heavy. Sturdiness is good. The monopod is an extra added feature.

Kf concept tripod/monopod is great value ive been using it for a while now and have to say i love this tripod very stable even with a big lens and a well built tripod and its versatile.I have other brands of tripods and this is my favourite.

The 63-Inch Monopod in Black has truly impressed me with its exceptional stability, lightweight design, and effective image stabilization. Whether capturing dynamic scenes or shooting in challenging conditions, the monopod provides a reliable support system, ensuring my photos remain sharp and clear. Its lightweight construction adds to the overall convenience, making it a go-to accessory for on-the-go photographers. The integrated image stabilization is a standout feature, significantly reducing vibrations and enhancing the quality of my shots. Setting up the monopod is a breeze, and its durable build instills confidence in its long-term performance. In summary, this monopod is a versatile and reliable tool that exceeds expectations, making it a valuable addition to any photographer's gear arsenal.

The title really says it all but let me break down the best features.1. Carbon fiber makes this tripod strong and VERY light weight. I was really surprised how light it was while still able to support both my Nikon Z7II or Z9 with a heavy duty L-bracket. Some travel tripods dump the weight by using thin legs or plastic hardware. This doesn't do either of those things!2. As mentioned, almost all the non-carbon fiber parts are metal or heavy duty rubber. No cheap plastics or other compromises that limit performance.3. One leg screws off so you can use it as a monopod eliminating the need to carry both when you're packing light.4. It comes with a good ball head. Yes, we all probably have a few of these laying around but in case you don't, this setup comes with a really nice one.5. Comes with a case to keep it protected.OK nothing is perfect and there are a few things I'd like to see improved on but they're all rather minor.1. I'd like both the tripod and the monopod to extend higher. I'm a taller human, I like my gear to extend to at least 6'6" and this is close but not quite there. If that doesn't matter to you, no big deal.2. I'd like a little more rigidity when the tripod is fully extended. This might not be a problem for many people, especially those with lighter gear. Both of my cameras as larger and heavier than most and I have them outfitted with larger pro L-brackets. All this makes them heavy but well within the stated limits.Overall at this price point you're going to be REALLY challenged to find a better tripod for travel use than this one. I'm really happy with it and I'll be using it as my primary travel tripod for the foreseeable future.

Aluminum tripods are not as sturdy as carbon fiber.

After getting a new 4lb 600mm lens was way too heavy to keep hoisting all day so got this monopod. It's light and adjust quickly for multiple angle changes on passing birds. *the photos attached are screenshots so they don't accurately portray how stable the shot was.

My have a very heavy zoom lens. Thus monopod is great. It takes the pressure off of my wrist and makes using my camera much easier.
