A good travel tripod. It is compact and lightweight yet sturdy. Great value for money.

The tripod works well but falls far short of the quality of other tripods. Even for the price, which seems low, its quality could be a little better. Good to have as a travel tripod or in conditions where its poor quality is not a problem, or as a secondary tripod when you have 2 cameras.

I have been using tripods for over 40 years. I currently have probably a dozen, ranging from travel versions to heavy duty, carbon fiber and aluminumThe good points: Really compact and light. This will fit in any luggage, most backpacks, etc. It can also hang from most sleeping bag straps on backpacks when you're on a long hike. Expands to nearly 6 feet - but isn't very stable at maximum expansion. Four feet is about the realistic maximum for a DSLR with a 70-200mm lens. For a compact or lighter (mirrorless) camera, it's OK.

I ordered this tripod as I needed a lightweight, compact, sturdy travel tripod for my trip.
I read many reviews from several travel tripods and settled on this one.

I am so glad I did as this tripod is perfect, it’s so lightweight, compact and hardly noticeable when carrying for a full day.
It comes with its own bag included within the price. Some other tripods you have to pay additional price for the bag.
It folds down to such a small size and the weight is very light.
The tripod is sturdy enough to hold my Canon 5div and a 24-70 f2.8 lens.
The legs can be adjusted so it gets low to the ground for when I’m taking landscape photos.
The head of the tripod the middle section pivots so it can be angled over railings so you don’t miss that shot or get any unnecessary objects in the way.

My trip involved lots of walking up mountains, some very uneven terrain and some less than ideal conditions. Such as rain and wind, the tripod managed perfectly and that is why I’m giving it a 5 star review.
Just ensure when in heavy wind the tripod is setup correctly before attaching your camera.

This is a very nice travel tripod. I always get backpacks with loops to hold a small tripod, but all the small tripods I've had have been flimsy and not worth lugging around. All my good tripods are too big for it. This one now fills that gap. He's very strong. The first time I extended the legs I had to tug to get them out, but once I freed them they slid smoothly.

Compact travel tripod, can be sturdy with weight added

The past few years I have had the fortunate opportunity to be able to try out many different types of camera equipment. I find that there are three big categories: heavy-duty, standard use, and travel. This tripod from K&F Concept is definitely designed to be in that third group. I have a couple of travel tripods that do a fantastic job of holding my full-frame Canon 5D Mark IV with a 70-200mm lens attached. I said that to mention that sometimes the smaller, lighter-weight tripods get the job done so you don’t have to haul around the heavier standard size mounts. K&F Concept did a nice job with the design of this tripod. It’s very lightweight at only 3.17 pounds, which is comparable to my travel-sized Manfrotto tripod.

This tripod has an impressive total height to it of 78 inches, which should be enough for any photograph you need to capture. I am shooting a wedding in a couple of weeks and I have the idea of shooting above the audience from the back of the venue. At 78 inches, this tripod provides the necessary height to be able to achieve that ‘over-head’ shot I’m looking for. The ball head moves easily enough, but the numbers on the bottom dial are faded and printed in a very light color. It’s hard to read -- even in studio lighting. I personally think that those numbers should be printed in a brighter, more vibrant color -- maybe even neon.

The legs extend easily, but the quick-release flip-locks have very sharp edges. I went to unlock one of the legs and the edge of the lock clipped my finger and I started bleeding. I was surprised to find such a sharp edge on a finished product like this. Another issue I found was with the center column. It seemed as though no matter how much I tightened it, I could still push the column down. I was only pushing down with as much force as a camera load would provide.

I really like that the feet had spikes on them. This provides a lot of added traction especially out in nature. It’s not something you see on every tripod and it was a welcome surprise with this design.

Initially, I was choosing between two tripods Manfrotto Befree Aluminium Travel Tripod with Ball Head - Black and
MeFOTO RoadTrip Convertible Tripod Kit with 5 Section Aluminium Legs - Black . But luckily, I somehow landed on K&F's website and found out about this new product, which was recently announced. Looking at the specs, this was exactly what I wanted. So I decided to give it a try even though there were no reviews on the web.

I am quite happy with the product: amazing built quality, rich features of the tripod, and great packaging.
