Excellent tripod with super smooth action gimbal head. Originally thought I might not like the thumb screw adjustments (as opposed to the turnbuckles on a conventional unit) however, they are great and very easy to use. Even in its fully extended state the tripod is stable and does not exhibit any buckling tendencies. The leg extension clamps are positive and clamp very well. The overall feel of this tripod is one of exceptional quality, particularly considering the price. It has a flexible screw head which allows the tripod to screw into my projector without any issues. It comes complete with a carrying case

So far I've only had very small and shaky tripod experiences, so I was initially surprised by the stability of this tripod, despite being such a lightweight.

The tripod is very multifunctional because you can use it as a tripod, monopod or selfie stick.

It has a spring-loaded hook on which you can hang a counterweight sandbag for a more stable stand.

The setting is very quick thanks to quick-release fasteners on the tripod legs and folding fasteners for height adjustment.

A spirit level is installed on the top, so that panoramic shots can be taken with the 360° ball head with scale.

The scope of delivery includes the tripod with 360° ball head, bracelet, ball head bag, Allen key, tripod bag and operating instructions.

The tripod makes a good impression in terms of workmanship and the choice of materials.
I can recommend it.

Do not use this gimbal head on a tripod but on a table. (photo booth). Is sturdy and hinges well. On this table I don't notice any difference with my 3 times more expensive Benro head.

For a gimbal, the head is relatively inexpensive. The only puzzling thing is that the load capacity is given as 20kg at K&F and 13.6kg at Neewer, although it is apparently the same product (at almost the same price). In the manual, the specified load capacity is directly related to the variable damping. According to this, a camera weighing up to 13.6kg should be held in position. The load limit of 20kg is probably meant.

Small tripod from the K&F Concept brand. First, you receive the tripod in its storage bag. The bag is 50cm long. A priori, it looks of good quality and in addition the bottom is reinforced, thick enough to prevent shocks. You can carry it with the small handles or you can equip it with the shoulder strap. There is also a small velvet bag which is provided. In terms of dimensions, when it is folded up, head down, it is 47cm. Otherwise when it is folded but this time head up, it is 60cm. On the weight side, it weighs 1kg 280g on my scale. The tubes, the branches are made of aluminum alloy with magnesium, which is supposed to make the material resistant to corrosion and abrasion. On one of the branches, there is a small non-slip sponge, which is rather comfortable to handle and it is true, outdoors, the metal can be very cold, and there, suddenly, we will be able to carry it there. In terms of use, it's quite simple. At the top of each branch, we have the angle adjustment. So there are three positions. You can also flip the column around to do a ground level, macro shot. You just have to unscrew the small hook with the rubber. We take out the column, and we go upside down. There is also a small support hook to weight the tripod. At the maximum height, when the 3 sections are extended and it is set on the first position, with the smallest angle, the tripod rises, from the ground to the top of the fluid head, at 159cm. On the ball joint side, there are two direction clamps. The first is pan rotation. Besides, there is a value scale. So it can be landmarks, for example to take a panoramic photo. Also when it is loosened, there is a resistance friction effect. So it can also allow in video to make fairly fluid panoramic movements. Then, the second tightening above, controls the ball joint and we also have the small notch for portrait mode at 90°; it's always a pleasure. And then above, classic, we have the fast plate. You have to unscrew to release it. Also there is the small tightening aid, it is very practical. It avoids using a part or damaging your thumb. And then there is also the small spirit level. If you don't like the ball joint, you can replace it. We can unscrew it. Then we have a 3/8'' screw, and then there, we can mount a new ball joint. I've been using it for a few months now. use for photo and video. No particular concerns so far. A good little tripod, for a first purchase. I recommend. I will keep this comment updated, if problems arise. If you found this comment useful, please click on yes, you will make me happy :)

I received the K&F tripod today because the monopod doesn't always serve me well. and I also had to work with the remote control here and there. Since I'm already the proud and satisfied owner of the KF-TM2534, I thought to myself, come and have a look at what other tripods K&F offers for on the go. The selection on the tripod market is unmanageable anyway and opinions differ widely. And that's when I chose this smaller 1.25 kg travel tripod. In terms of quality, this is also top-notch and also flawlessly painted and looks quite high-quality. +++++ Scope of delivery ++++ The tripod is delivered in a box and a small, odorless, slim shoulder bag which can be used with or without a strap can, I personally lash it to my photo backpack without any bag, because I have to have everything at hand and don't want to unpack umpteen bags. But at home to store it, the bag is okay. The moveable, high-quality tripod head comes in a velvety bag and is quickly screwed on. The tripod head can be unscrewed from the rod and the thread in the rod can also be turned around and screwed directly onto the smaller threaded socket that now appears, for example external flashes or spotlights. I think it's great when I'm doing smaller studio recordings. Of course, it also goes directly to the mounting plate, which also has a standard thread. +++++ Operation +++++ Is intuitively simple and doesn't really need much description. To set up the four legs you loosen the plastic clamps on the legs and the legs slide out. By pressing in the plastic lever, you lock the legs again. There are three screws on the tripod head with which you can adjust all inclination settings. The small mounting plate must be loosened at the top screw and then attached to the camera using a coin or something else. The stand is good and the tripod keeps the camera stable at all angles, the tripod head stays in place and doesn't move. The tripod is approved for 8 kilograms, although I would be careful with very heavy, high-quality lenses. The ball head can be swiveled in all directions, but unfortunately this is not possible without jerks due to the missing lever and therefore this tripod is not for film fans, there are certainly better ones. +++++ Discover the possibilities ++++ TIP for all those who aim high +++++ The maximum height is 1.58, which is not small. Since I'm quite tall, that suits me very well. But since the tripod disassembles nicely, especially the top part, I can combine it with my other larger tripod (rods and screws are the same diameter) and so the tripod, either the KF-T2534 or the smaller KF-TM2324, in screw a tripod with a height of more than 2.15 m. The stability is still top (certainly you have to consider the weight of the lens here and, if necessary, weigh down the tripod on the middle rod on the hook provided for this purpose (sandbag or something else). +++++ Conclusion ++++Solidly processed travel tripod/ Entry-level tripod/second tripod, which impresses with its very good workmanship, for the professional sector I would recommend the other more valuable products from K&F Concepts (the other models have a larger ball joint head). The camera is held stable without slipping. Everything goes smoothly and smoth except for the gold colored locking 'levers' and that's good so the legs don't just slide apart and the camera bangs on the floor. Top price performance!

I tested this with my SLR camera.

The tripod is delivered securely packed in a box and a tripod bag and makes a stable and valuable impression. I think it's great that this tripod comes with a matching carrying bag, which also looks very nice and is also very stable and valuable. The processing of the tripod is very good and made with high-quality materials. For its size (assembled 50 cm with bag) it is not too heavy either. It can be assembled compactly, which makes it easy to transport. The assembly and disassembly is very easy and quick. The tripod can be extended up to a height of 2m and is very stable.

The tripod is equipped with a 3D ball head and graduated scale, which allows the camera to be easily moved to any position. In addition, the ball head has a small spirit level for optimal alignment when setting up.

The tripod can be assembled and disassembled very quickly with one hand thanks to the quick-release fasteners on the tripod legs. You can also make many settings for the perfect stand on any surface on the tripod. There is also 1 gravity hook on the tripod itself, which can be used to increase the stability of the tripod by attaching heavy objects.

The base plate for attachment to the camera can be attached normally using a rotary thread. This is then also attached to the tripod itself with a fastening screw on the ball head, whereby the camera is then firmly and securely connected to the tripod.

The feet of the tripod have a plastic cover, which can be removed if necessary, underneath there is a metal spike, which allows the tripod to be firmly anchored to the ground. The feet can also be unscrewed from the tripod if required.

Conclusion: Top tripod suitable for both professional and hobby photographers

I think that this product is a very high-quality and well-made tripod, which has been very well thought out by the manufacturer and is therefore perfect for both professional and amateur photographers. Thanks to its compact design and quick and easy assembly, you can take it with you anywhere. All important setting options can be made easily and without any problems.

I am thrilled and can recommend the purchase without reservation. The price is reasonable.
I give it 5 stars and a buy recommendation.

I'll start this review with a caveat, my reviews are usually long and detailed, but I like to write reviews in a way that helps other buyers, especially when buying from relatively unknown or foreign companies. This is my first purchase from this company and I have to say I am very, very impressed. This isn't necessarily a 'blind buy' as I was lucky enough to find the company's booth at this year's (2019) NEC Photo Show in Birmingham, UK. There I had the opportunity to process and play with some of his various tripods and lens filters. So I left without buying while thinking about which kit to upgrade. I'm an avid amateur photographer, so I'm on a limited budget for my equipment and 'settled in' With a cheap tripod I've had for years and been through so many repairs over the years I decided to give it a go time has gotten better! I ordered this tripod and it came in very good packaging. In the box I found the tripod and accessories in a sturdy but decent case with handles. (See the photo). The bag contains a ball head tripod in a very elegant and velvety protective drawstring pouch. The bag also has a shoulder strap and a pocket with adapters, instructions and an "Allen" wrench to tighten the tripod legs if needed. Recommended! The bag contains a ball head tripod in a very elegant and velvety protective drawstring pouch. The bag also has a shoulder strap and a pocket with adapters, instructions and an "Allen" wrench to tighten the tripod legs if needed. Recommended! The bag contains a ball head tripod in a very elegant and velvety protective drawstring pouch. The bag also has a shoulder strap and a pocket with adapters, instructions and an "Allen" wrench to tighten the tripod legs if needed. Recommended!
