This is the first tripod I've bought in a loooooooong time. Most of my shots these days comes from a smartphone that's being handheld so I was really looking forward to buying this for my XT4. All and all this is an amazing tripod for the price and there isn't a whole lot more you could reasonably ask for it.

Pros
- This thing is feature rich. It has a gear hook, monopod, and the ball head assembly is entirely removable which really helps distribute the weight of the thing when it's hanging off the side of a bag.
- Smooth actuation. Sometimes the locks get in the way of breaking it down but I'm actually listing this as a pro. If you actuate the legs to their furthest position at each stop then try to push them any further the locks will really get in the way. This means that if your leg is going to give way on terrain it's going to stop pretty easy.

- Plenty tall when you extend the center column. I'm 6' and I can bring my camera to eye level easily.

Cons
- This thing is not light. It's on par for other aluminum tripods but if you're really looking to drop your weight look into carbon fiber.

- The monopod leg is SLIGHTLY shorter than the rest of the other legs. This isn't too big of a problem if you take some time to balance the other two legs. It's also not a problem if you're shooting landscape and wildlife and you're already going to have an uneven distribution between the legs.

Missing/Neutral
- No threads to put feet or screws on the bottom of the mount. Not a problem for me but do be advised that if you're shooting on sand or water and you want feet it could be an issue. Not sure why you'd buy this tripod for that purpose at this price point anyway.

Great light weight tripod and monopod that's fantastic for vacation. For those shots that your phone just isn't quite good enough. Works especially well on uneven surfaces.

have never found a better combination of features, low cost, low weight and compact travel size and build quality in a tripod as with this one. I bought this to be a travel tripod since my Manfrotto was too large and heavy to carry around. Now I don't even use the Manfrotto anymore. This is the tripod I use for everything.

I did a lot of research and was previously convinced that this would be perfect for my hybrid photography.
One should buy fluid head and that is the most economical in price but not in terms of quality.
I thought of Manfrotto BeeLive but it was too light and no monopod possible.
positives:
+ Very very sturdy
+ When extending 171cm from 191cm as a monopod
+ Panning is very smooth
+ Tilting is smooth as well
+ Ease of use
+ Good looking
+ We can fully control the rigidity of both axes of movement with the given screw knobs.
+ Can easily turn down the liquid head for a close-up shot
+ Can easily hang more weight with the hook to make it more stable.
+ Economical, half the price. Hold the liquid head and

If you want to use L-Bracket, you need to buy an adapter, the included quick release adapter perfectly fits any camera with 1/4 or 3/8 screw, but it is wider than common L-Bracket 39mm x 10mm.
3kg weight was not a criterion for me. Manfrotto BeeLive is 1.4 kg, but certainly not more robust. What I needed
was certainly a monopod.
Negative
- One will find it a bit confusing to balance with built in two mind levels. But you will soon learn.
We need to use the lever to pull so that the ball head will start tilting.
- The quick release plate could have been longer, 150mm instead of 100m which is supplied. It would have made the camera more stable with a longer lens. This would have made Panorama much better.

As a final criticism, I am very satisfied with the tripod and am looking for a long pleasant working with it.
I recommend it without hesitation.

I state that I already have a Manfrotto 546GB with a 504HD head (great headstand), I needed a second tripod but I had no intention of accessing a mortgage to buy it... so I will compare it to this...
what can I say I was amazed at the quality... I was expecting a cinesata but had to change my mind, large size, closed it is the size of a photo tripod, it has a fantastic carrying case, a liquid head with different adjustments, adjustments, bubbles, etc., dimensions during use both in height and in perfect dimensions, possibility of using them as a monopod.

Let's go to the dark side...
The weight is definitely not light, the head I still say good does not have all the Manfrotto head adjustments, for example the adjustable clutch for horizontal movement... which is present on Manfrotto and is not present here... but we always consider the price, the boom for moving the head is a little short and not telescopic, there is no three-foot base in monopod mode, so you get tired of holding it in place for long-term use. The hooks for tightening the tripod rods seem undersized to me, but it still does their dirty work.
Conclusion Manfrotto is still Manfrotto... but this Cayer surprised me.
... And good!

I have a cheaper more light weight tripod. It is ok for inside in the studio. The K&F tripod with the monopod is a big upgrade for just a few more money. It is more sturdy, taller, and has more adjustment. The legs adjust to many different heights. The monopod is very handy. Still light weight and comes with a carry bag.
Lots of bang for the buck.

I was skeptical at first, but it is a solid piece. It is not as steady as my trusted Manfrotto, but it is 1/5 of the weight, so it is assumed not to be rock-steady. But for what it cost, it is an excellent tool, and I'm happy with it. I use it with My Canon 6D and various lenses, including long telefoto zooms (70-200). I carry it strapped to my backpack while hiking. There is absolutely no creep in the head, it is precise and has a good positive feeling when you lock it.
