bought this tripod especially for my trip to Norway for the following reason: My old tripod has a system where you have to lock the legs by turning them. This is not only quite annoying, it also holds very poorly and the legs often "retract" when setting it up... That's why I ordered this tripod, on which the extendable legs can simply be clicked open and closed. It's quick and uncomplicated and especially in cold temperatures like I had in Norway, it's super easy even with gloves. A big plus for me. Otherwise it is a very valuable tripod. Good stability and great flexibility in terms of leg rotation and freedom of movement thanks to the ball head. Not too heavy for travel and the size makes it easy to attach to a backpack. Conclusion: I can fully recommend the tripod!

Being a passionate photographer, I wanted to explore low light photography. Who says photo in low light, then says competition tripod. I can't afford to put 180 euros into a tripod. I then found this alternative and I must say that I was not disappointed. In addition to its lightness, it is easy to use. It is very functional and very compact. So I can take it with me everywhere. he never leaves me I am very happy with this tripod. In addition, it offers the possibility of taking photos in monopod mode and I fully confirm it! Its kneecap is perfect for making videos, it's very smooth. I recommend

Following a total change of my camera equipment from a reflex to a hybrid, I was looking for a new, lighter tripod. I initially directed my choice towards a carbon tripod of only 1.3KG, ideal to transport, so much that it took place directly in my backpack and no longer outside it was so light.
But in use, it was something else since I was used to an Alta Pro 263AT, I had lost this freedom of movement following this change since I did not allow you to place your box in certain positions. After having put it in the closet a little, I decided to find a replacement for it and so I came across this model, certainly a little heavier by 300 grams but in the end which corresponds much better to my expectations thanks to the offset arm in addition to having the possibility of transforming the tripod into a monopod in a few seconds, which allowed me to part with mine at the same time and to amortize the price of this tripod. Following the first tests, it is really faultless for the moment.

IN SHORT
Appreciable lightness combined with minimal bulk
Possible shots from all possible and unimaginable angles
An impression of solidity which I hope will last over time

I recommend!

Fast delivery, stability and quality will be seen.

Foreword: Hello friends, I have been involved in photography for about 2 years and this has also become my everyday hobby. That's why I wanted to improve my existing equipment. At the beginning I had a tripod for 20€ and gained my initial experience with it. Like many of you, I also wanted more possibilities and more comfort in photography. Now I would like to describe my experiences and the differences to a 20€ tripod for beginners. So you can get your own idea of whether a more expensive tripod is worth it for you. Quality and differences to cheap tripods: After the product arrived I noticed the first difference, the material of the bag was a bit thicker and of higher quality. After I unpacked the tripod, I assessed the workmanship and how much play the tripod had. I have absolutely nothing to complain about the processing of the metals and this is at a very high level. A few plastic elements show that not everything is perfectly processed. Compared to my cheap tripod, the legs can be unfolded individually, which in my opinion gives me many more options. The ball head can also be adjusted much easier, more specifically and, above all, more comfortably than on my cheap one. Here I have to adjust 2 axes separately with the lever, which gets a bit annoying in the long run. What fascinated me the most, however, was the possibility of turning the tripod around and getting very close to the ground. These possibilities are usually not offered with cheap tripods. So I can finally take calm macro shots and take pictures from completely new perspectives. In addition, the pack dimensions were decisive for my purchase because I would like to use them when traveling. The attachment that is screwed into the camera has a very good rubber coating with a profile so that the camera does not turn out by itself even if it is rotated by 90° on the tripod and is equipped with a large lens (some of you will probably know this). ). Due to the compact size, K&F has also come up with a solution for windy days, because this tripod is equipped with a hook at the lower end of the neck, to which you can attach your bag or similar. Overall, I see many advantages in this tripod compared to the tripods in the lowest price range: + Individually fold-out legs = More options + Ball head for more comfortable adjustment + Smaller pack size and light + Overall very stable even with the neck extended + Turning the neck 180° gives you new ones Perspectives possible + More sophisticated and convincing design

Excellent

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.

Looking for a light and compact tripod to organize a trip, I came across this one, barely 1kg300 for 38cm folded. It also offers the possibility of making a monopod very quickly, which will be interesting for taking a picture in a place where a tripod would not have been possible. For such a small build, the tripod is very solid as it easily supports the weight of my 6d Mark II with its handle and its two batteries + a Sigma 70-200. (even when the articulated arm is extended). The tripod's legs have 5 sections, allowing it to be adjusted from approximately 35cm to 155cm, and the center column can be flipped to allow the unit to be placed at ground level! It comes with a carrying case, an extension for the monoball monopod, Supplied with a ball head with an "arca swiss" type quick plate, which allows the lens to be attached directly to the ball joint without using the quick plate (see photo 4). In summary, a purchase that I do not regret and that is more than qualitative for its price.

I don’t like to take my big gear when I travel, and I get nice photo performance out of my GX7, And with this tripod I can travel super light now. Hiking those 14ers with less than 3lbs of photo gear is going to be AMAZING! I could probably take my Sony Alpha 6300 instead with a zoom lens if I needed some reach.

I wouldnt recommend big dslrs for this tripod. Stick to mirrorless or point and shoot.

I am a professional architecture and interior photographer and also do videography. Was looking for a tripod that was lightweight yet strong and sturdy (as my gear can be heavy, e.g. tilt-shift/telephoto zoom lenses, and expensive). This K&F tripod ticked all the boxes and the price is perfect.

This tripod has an excellent and smooth quick-change system, which is especially important to me when moving from location to location during the critical lighting window for outdoor photography.

The height of the tripod is impressive and it can be optionally extended to add extra weight at the center of gravity to make it even more secure.

The color of the tripod is vivid and the finish is smooth.

I personally prefer twist locks for the tripod legs, although this is definitely a matter of personal preference. The legs can also be extended outwards using the quick release buckle for an even lower height. This can be especially helpful when trying to achieve a lower angle of view for artistic reasons, e.g. B. if you focus on the foreground.

Would definitely recommend as a studio or outdoor tripod, or even for events and travel! Carbon fiber tripods are ideal for traveling.
