For a long time I was looking for a travel tripod that is compact and handy. Whenever hiking or holiday tours were announced, I had to fall back on my Nanomax 400T. Unfortunately, this is just as high as German bridge railings at maximum height. After some time I came across the TM2324. Short preliminary conclusion: The processing is very good. The tripod is trimmed for photo tours. Thanks to the light 1.3 kg and quick-release fasteners on the legs, it can be taken anywhere and set up super quickly. The ball head with panorama function runs smoothly and feels secure. Details: 1. Key data: The tripod is 47 cm long when folded. If you set it up you can reach a maximum height of 159 cm (at the quick release plate), which is significantly higher than German bridge railings. The weight I measured was 1.31 kg with the ball head and 1.05 kg without the ball head. Despite the tripod, a lot still fits in the case. 2. Ball head: The ball head not only has the actual ball head function, but also a panorama function. The larger wheel releases the ball head. This runs smoothly and can also be swiveled downwards by 90° at one point. The smaller wheel is used for the panorama function. This runs just as smoothly and, as the name suggests, enables panoramic shots, since only the vertical axis is released. If you just crop images you lose resolution (if the focal length allows it at all). If you use the built-in panorama functions, you actually get a higher resolution. 3. Quick release plate: The quick release plate and holder are made of plastic. In this way, a little weight could probably be saved here as well. The plastic looks very valuable and stable. At first glance I thought it was metal. A spirit level or dragonfly is installed in the recording, so you can align the camera straight in the field. 4. Central plate: The feet can be locked in 3 positions with snap hooks on the central plate. Although the clamps feel somewhat "loose", the legs are surprisingly well fixed in the locked position. The middle bar is held by a classic twist lock. 5. Tripod legs: The tripod legs are equipped with quick-release fasteners. They look solid and are particularly useful when you're on the go and don't want to screw forever before you can pull out the leg and then screw it back on. With the quick-release fasteners, this can be done in a few seconds. The tubes themselves are made of black, brushed aluminum. I found no iron or steel on the legs. So nothing can rust if the tripod is placed in a stream or in the sea. One of the legs is partially covered with foam. You can carry the tripod well on it. It's so much more pleasant, especially when it's minus degrees. 6. Bag: The bag looks well made and is of course precisely adapted to the tripod. You can either carry it by the handle or hook it into the included strap. A reflective strip should probably serve to make you better seen by drivers on night hikes. Although I never really carry my tripods in bags, I find them quite successful. As you can see the weather has been bad for a long time but I didn't want to deprive you of my experience. As soon as the weather gets better I will try to send some more pictures later. I bought and paid for the K&F Concept TM2324 as usual via Amazon, but I get the money refunded as a product tester. As always, my opinion remains independent and honest.

I find it very sturdy and good quality for the price. The only drawback I would have is that you always have to have the center column up to fold the tripod. And in terms of quality, I don't find the 1/4 thread mount that good. Otherwise the rest fits and is a super tripod that I like to use for my A7 III or the RGB tubes. I can definitely recommend.

This is a superbly lightweight and awesomely built tripod, I tried mine as soon as it arrived, k&f really do make some of the best quality items for the money, ideal for travelling due to its mere size, but extends to a height that’s perfect for me, I decided to upgrade my tripods for my photography and videography and found that k&f suit my needs, i own a few k&f tripods now and they are perfect for the job, I would recommend these.

The tripod has a good basis for me, it has clip fasteners. I don't use twist locks, I think these are more susceptible to dirt or sand in the thread. It's a good size: it's not exactly compact, in the normal folded working position it's a bit large at 55 cm on small backpacks. But even without the center column extended, it reaches a working height of 1.38 m, which is great. The tripod head is OK, Arca Swiss plates fit on it. For practical use: When there is no wind, I can work with Fuji DSLMs without any problems, I was even able to use my Nikon D7500 here. Whereby this represents the maximum size in terms of weight, for large full-frame cameras you need heavier tripods. When there was no wind, I was even able to use a Fuji with a small telephoto without the pictures being blurred. When there is little wind, I also use it to record videos. The quality is very good for the price. Of course I can't compare the quality and durability with my heavy Manfrotto, but that cost almost 300 euros even with a large ball head. And especially on longer hikes, I don't feel like lugging around the heavy tripod. I am very satisfied with the tripod, I think the price/performance ratio is great.

had the opportunity to test a travel tripod from K&F Concept. What particularly interested me was the weight, the quick-release fasteners on the legs, a working height that was comfortable for me, the handling of the ball head (I'm not a fan of it) and the price. When the tripod arrived I was immediately surprised... it comes in an easy-to-carry bag and the ball head is protected with a small pouch. An imbus and (admittedly) somewhat sparse instructions are also included. But … do you urgently need instructions for the tripod? The handling of the clamp closures is good and I quickly get the hang of it. So the tripod can be set up and taken down quickly. The removable plate is screwed under the camera as usual and is then NOT fastened with a quick release, but is screwed. But that works fine. The height is 1.33m and the center column allows it to be extended up to 1.56m. That's a tolerable working height for both me and Markus... and yeah, it's stable, even with the 5D on top. The ball head also held the weight of the 5D well ... can be easily adjusted so that I am even enthusiastic as a ball head anti. I did find a small flaw though. There's a bubble level on the tripod, but it's covered when the camera is mounted...that's a bit of a shame when you have to move the tripod. But you can get over it. The price is quite low at €70 ... but the quality of the tripod really surprised me. My conclusion: I have found a good and cheap seller ... I will definitely buy from K&F Concept again if I need something.

Recently purchased as i venture into the world of photography, love the look, the various options to shoot, it's light, so i just attach to my bag and go.... Look forward to seeing what i can accomplish with this awesome tool

My new tripod finally arrived yesterday. Today you need better and better equipment, even in hobby photography. So after much deliberation I bought this K&F tripod. My old tripod was very shaky, not to mention the tripod quick-release plate. This tripod is very robust and I really recommend it as it can be one of the best in this price range. Especially the low height due to the adjustable legs allows you to take pictures very close to the ground. This is a great advantage, especially in nature, because you can find the best angle for photos and get a great insight. Ultimately, there is not much to say, because it does its job completely and you really get a great tripod for the price. The quick-release plate is used by many manufacturers and can therefore be used universally. Even with my relatively heavy DSLR, which weighs almost 2 kg depending on the lens, the camera always stands very firmly on it and nothing blurs. Even when shooting I could not find anything negative about the tripod. So for my Sony Alpha it's a great companion for long exposures and films. Thanks to its low weight, you can take it with you on trips and thanks to its compact design, it fits into any backpack. What you can also say is that the tripod comes with a super stable transport bag so that the tripod arrives safely. All in all, this tripod is ideal for photography and filming.

Even though I read the reviews, I was still surprised by the compact size and weight of this tripod. The components are all quality, it's well made. I'm 6'1" (185cm) tall and use a Pentax K1 with battery grip and 24-70mm f2.8 lens. It's a tall, heavy camera setup. My immediate concern was that the tripod will be too short and if I flip the camera vertically the tripod might fall over. To my surprise, fully extended, the camera viewfinder is almost too high for me. This places the lens over the heads of most people if you're in a crowd and most DSLR cameras have a tiltable LCD screen for viewing anyway. Its also quite stable for its weight. Horizontal or vertical, the camera was in no danger of falling. I wouldn't risk it on a windy day though.On the ballhead there are 3 separate knobs to lock rotation, ball tilt and camera base plate. All very solid. The baseplate also has a really nice bubble level and a compass that will help you align the tripod to North for astrophotography.If you're a hiker or traveler, I highly recommend this for the price / performance ratio.

Why did I buy this tripod? As you can see from the title, this goes incredibly well with the sony A7. The second main reason was that I really wanted to avoid buying a tripod with a rotating mechanism (tripod legs), because you turn a branch there. With the clip mechanism, the tripod is set up in no time at all. Just lovely. In addition, it is super designed and the price is really good for what it comes with. The bag alone surprised me a lot, because it looks really well made! A tripod should make photography easier and I think this tripod does that; all times! I am absolutely satisfied and I hope for a very long life.

Having spend a fair amount hiking and exploring, I was looking in the market for a lighter weight tripod (i had full-size alloy one ). I find this carbon fiber tripod affordable to buy within my budget. It is Very Light (1005 grams - Verified) so definitely helps for long hiking trips.
All three legs are carbon material which can be adjusted into multiple heights using 4 circular locks on each leg. Each circular lock tightens a leg in clockwise rotation for a particular height and releases the legs to expand in anti-clock rotation. The camera mounts on a plastic made base along with bubble level to align the camera straight. So far I have used this tripod on hiking trip only once and my camera sits without any wiggle on the plastic mount with kit lens, prime lens and telephoto zoom lens.
Each leg has 2 indexing positions which works well for me. My previous tripod had 3 index positions and to be honest, I never really used the middle one so it's not a huge loss for me. The legs extend with a twist-lock mechanism and slides and locks very smoothly, noticeably more smooth than my previous one. I do have a 70-200mm lens and feel I have to be a bit more careful when getting my shots set up because this tripod has a narrower stance than my previous one and with my lens mounted at full extension is a little less stable than I'd like. BUT, given my intended use and how compact and light weight this tripod is, I am very, very satisfied with it.
