three modes are offered here: an infrared mode, a color mode and an alarm mode.

► Brand manufacturers are making it increasingly difficult for other camera manufacturers to establish themselves successfully. In order to be able to counter this, the scope of services and the price must be right.
Can you expect a good outdoor-capable camera for currently around €160, which instead of Full HD (1,080p) offers 2K, a light with infrared and alarm, two-way audio and a horizontal rotation range of 355° and 120° vertically ? Yes, you can, because I haven't found any real vulnerabilities so far. So if you can do without 4K, you can buy a good device at an attractive price, which tends to cost more from other manufacturers and also offers flawless workmanship and good optics.

►► In short: attractive appearance, flawless workmanship, power connection required(!), sharp photos/videos, spotlight, two-way audio and with direct recording option (micro SD card), optional cloud storage, thanks to the motor. Control 360° monitoring possible. This ensures good comfort overall.

► There are many good reasons for a camera surveillance system, which is why I have been using various cameras indoors and outdoors for years. The K&F surveillance camera is specially designed for outdoors. My previous cameras are used to monitor pets, but of course I also want to know what happens in my/our absence. For many parents in the home, this is certainly a key reason to buy a surveillance camera. I really don't want to think about burglars here...

► Installation: The instructions are very helpful and should be able to fix any problems. Within this, the connection of the camera succeeds quite quickly and you can then get started immediately. Here you can set a few things and call up recordings.

First you have to agree to the terms of use and data protection guidelines in the German-language app and then register (e-mail, password). After this procedure you also have access to the data in the camera (card) and other settings ("Settings"). You also have access to your camera on the go. You are guided within the well-structured and so far stable app, so that the cameras can then be called up separately. On a smartphone/tablet, the whole thing with images/videos looks pretty decent, although you can make appropriate changes to the settings. Fiddle around a bit to try some things, e.g. B. when creating scenes, routines / schedules, within which the camera should be "sharp", or when the light should be switched on.

► What the cameras can do - Requirements for good reception
Based on my previous experiences with other cameras of this or a similar type, I was not disappointed here either, although I prefer operation via LAN cable, at least indoors, for fundamental reasons.

The respective image from the surveillance camera is detailed and sharp during the day. If you zoom in (digitally), this is more or less at the expense of the sharpness, despite 2K, because there is no optical zoom. In night vision mode and tending to low light and in the dark, the image is still satisfactory and not faint and blurry. Then black and white without light, but ok
If, on the other hand, the spotlight is activated, you have color and more details even in the dark. This is a certain added value and may also serve as a deterrent, whereby the infrared mode detects movements and then activates the light, while the alarm mode lives up to its name... ;-) The area to be monitored regularly should be narrowed down as precisely as possible in
advance , so that the camera despite motor. Control does not need to be panned in the main viewing area. Not to forget the important remote access: this worked quite well in the test, as long as you are not stuck in a dead spot, you will (hopefully) be notified in good time if something happens.

► A battery was not installed here, which limits the flexibility in a certain way. A protected (!) power connection (possibly with an extension cable) must therefore be available. But this also has the advantage that the camera can be used more frequently without the battery (with or without solar) dying too quickly... ►

What else is important? You have to do without an optical zoom here. However, that is not to be expected in this price range and is also not standard. But there is also a solid two-way audio (intercom function). All in all, a nice performance package.

► Keyword data/theft: If the camera accidentally falls into the wrong hands, the data recorded on the micro SD card will fall into the wrong hands. An occasional data backup (PC or similar) can't do any harm anyway, although the question is what third parties want to do with the recordings... (unless thieves break in and cover up tracks...). The cloud service is therefore not absolutely necessary here.

►►► Conclusion: Overall, the camera makes a good impression in terms of equipment and also visually. Ensure the best possible reception, because there are many sources of interference lurking in the 2.4 GHz network, which can have an unfavorable effect. If that works, you get a smooth, sharp picture during the day, with a limited wide angle, but also motor. Steering. The resolution in the dark is also good using the spotlight, although a number of details can also be made out at a distance in addition to the color view.

Note: Alarms ("warning notifications") via motion detection/sounds are possible, ok for my purposes and therefore usable. Remote access also works, which means extra security on the go. Nevertheless, if there are any problems (too many/too few alarms), you should generally tinker a little and avoid moving backgrounds or background noise as much as possible.

Despite the lack of long-term experience, there are also four stars from a price point of view because I like the scope of services.

This is my first tripod and I got it for a good price through a lightning deal and I'm very happy with it. It seems late to me but very solid. The finish is nice and keeps my camera solid in a variety of positions.
You might want to get a weighted bag if you were to have a bigger camera on the end of the pole. The pole is ideal for aerial shots of the kitchen, feet or similar aerial shots.
The bag is of good quality and should last.
Overslept very satisfied with the quality of this product.

Back 20 years or so ago, I was a newly-hired photographer for a community newspaper in Michigan. One of my first shoots was covering the holiday parade. Determined to bring a new twist to our coverage of the long-running, annual event, I walked into the center of the parade route and precariously held my bulky DSLR camera aloft using a three-legged light stand. I’m sure not everyone was impressed at the time, but when we ran the photos many, hopefully, appreciated having a view of the parade that they had never seen before.
Fast forward to the K&F extension pole and the introduction of lightweight action cameras—the light stand stays in the studio where it belongs, and the aluminum alloy K&F pole proves itself up to the task.
The six-section, telescoping pole extends to five feet. At that length I have had lesser poles begin to bend and sway. The K&F pole remains solid, and despite its rugged build weighs a trim 6.4 ounces.
I appreciate the thoughtful design. I’ve used similar poles, and not all include the simple but invaluable feature of having a 1/4” threaded connector at their base. The connector allows for mounting the pole on a tripod—miniature to full size—to take the camera or anything else with a corresponding male connecter to even new heights.
At the opposite end, there is a 1/4” threaded connector for attaching an action camera adapter (included). The adapter allows for adjusting the angle of the attached camera, compact light, smart phone clamp or other device. The rubber collar of the threaded connector helps prevent any unwelcome rotation of the camera.

K&F Concept Camera Tripod K234A7 + BH-28L + Extension Arm Kits I only uploaded 1 of the 2 videos and preferred the second one in which I explain how and where to put the different parts as the manufacturer includes a slim guide as on the photo shown. Assemble the pieces by looking at the various presentation photos, it would be 4 stars for this particular one but the tripod is worth the 5 stars. The supplied short pole is 30cm long, while the closed stand reaches 50cm. How I use the tripod is very easy to use and see the various reviews for more measurements and opinions on how well it works. Just saying I use it with Tamron 150/600 G2 on Nikon D7200 and Celestron Ultima 80 Spotting Scope both on the head ball that comes with it and the gimbal to replace it but only on a smooth tripod without the extension pole that I use have not tried. Relatively light excellent transport bag with reflective insert and shoulder strap with padded shoulder strap. The head comes with a one-for-all attachment and is of the Arca-Swiss compatible type.

Great Outdoor Surveillance Camera. We got one to keep an eye on our dog during the day. The subscription plan is reasonable when compared to other companies (like Arlo etc) and only needed if you want to have access to stored videos. Given the camera should cost a lot more the sub is very affordable.
We have multiple ring cameras in our house and being able to pay one sub for access to all is good value.

... and this is especially true in the dark, because this is where the light scores and allows more detail and color vision.

► Brand manufacturers are making it increasingly difficult for other camera manufacturers to establish themselves successfully. In order to be able to counter this, the scope of services and the price must be right. Can you expect a good outdoor-capable WLAN camera for currently around A$200, which instead of Full HD (1,080p) has 2K, a light, two-way audio and a generous pan range (355° Pan and 120° Tilt)? offers ? Yes, you can, because I haven't found any real vulnerabilities so far. So if you can do without 4K, you can buy a good device at an attractive price, which tends to cost more from other manufacturers and also offers flawless workmanship and good optics.

►► Summary: attractive appearance, flawless workmanship, no separate power connection required due to the 9,600mAh battery + solar panel(!), sharp photos/videos, two-way audio and with direct recording options (micro SD card), free cloud -Storage (7 days), thanks to the engine. Control extensively rotatable. Overall, this ensures very good comfort.

► There are many good reasons for a camera surveillance system, which is why I have been using various cameras indoors and outdoors for years. The K&F Concept surveillance camera is specially designed for outdoors, although indoors is of course also possible. My previous cameras are used to monitor pets, but of course I also want to know what happens in my/our absence. For many parents in the home, this is certainly a key reason to buy a surveillance camera. I really don't like to think about burglars...

► Currently I mainly rely on two WLAN camera manufacturers (Blink and Reolink), but I also know other systems, e.g. B. by Arlo. There is a lot to be said for a special camera surveillance system with on-site recording options, namely on separate micro SD cards (up to 128 GB). However, private data in a (usually) foreign cloud is not for everyone, even if it is free (here 7 days). Local storage can therefore score points here, as long as the camera and memory card are not lost by thieves. But you should also ensure the best possible reception (if necessary, use a repeater).

Try out several possible locations for attaching the WLAN camera, provided you can also place the solar panel well. So far I have had good experiences (including reception), although any reception problems and jerky playback are not necessarily to be attributed to the camera. DECT telephones and heavily loaded 2.4 GHz networks can also be considered sources of interference.

► Installation: The instructions are very helpful and should be able to fix any problems. Otherwise, a smartphone/tablet is required via WLAN, since the use of the app (“K&F Cam”) is mandatory. Within this, the connection of the camera succeeds quite quickly and you can then get started immediately. Here you can set a few things and call up recordings.
Many manufacturers now rely on well-known apps such as "Smart Life" (or "Tuya" from the same manufacturer). Instead, the app "K&F Cam" (current iOS version 4.2.1) is specified here, although I have not checked whether the camera also works well with other apps.

You have to register in advance in the app (e-mail, password). After this procedure you also have access to the data in the camera (card) and other settings ("Settings"). You also have access to your camera on the go. You are guided within the well-structured and so far stable app, so that the cameras can then be called up separately. On a smartphone/tablet, the whole thing with images/videos looks pretty decent, although you can make appropriate changes to the settings.

► The battery has not given up so far, although the solar panel has always been responsible for charging. Now that the dark season is beginning, it remains to be seen whether this will remain the case with regular use. In any case, the camera is not designed for continuous operation and regularly long applications.

A (paid) cloud service is therefore not necessary here, whereby at least 7 days are included as already mentioned...

Works as intended. This is an easy game when mounted on the camera body (Fujifilm X-t3)
