Camera Tripod Horizontal Aluminum Tripods Portable Monopod with 36mm Ball Head 16KG Load Capacity Quick Release Plate, for Travel and Work T255A4+BH-36L
SKU: KF09.085V3
Very sturdy ball head tripod, very convenient to position the camera quickly and stably. I can't say it's light, but how could it be... On the other hand, it has to be robust and at the same time it has to be balanced even on steep terrain and maybe even with a little wind.
I found it very useful, comfortable and well finished: it does its job very well. It allows you to detach one leg and use it as a monopod. Of course, you will have to disassemble the head and reassemble it on the "new" structure. It's a very useful feature that allows you to set up the shot much faster while maintaining a certain level of stability. Overall I think it's an excellent product.

Very well made. All fixation hold tight. Despite its low weight of 1660 g, it is stable when extended to its full height. At 170cm, you can easily reach eye level with the camera. A good compromise between size, weight, stability and functionality for on the go. My large Manfrotto tripod weighs a good 1.2kg more, is 30 cm longer when closed and yet only slightly more stable. The extendable center column with a ball joint is a practical thing - you have an extension for macros or repro, for example. The carrying capacity is sufficient for MFT cameras - I use Lumix and Olympus cameras with a battery grip and long focal lengths, i.e. a good 2kg - the tripod is always sufficient for that. It is my first choice for outdoor activities. Clear purchase recommendation.

I am very dissatisfied after a short time the bag no longer held and the rubber edge of the column has come loose and the tripod is no longer height-adjustable. I also had to keep tightening the screw on the Kugellopf. Unfortunately, it is no longer possible to exchange it since it has been at least four months since I ordered this for 150 euros. It was also scratched very quickly. Too bad in itself I was always satisfied with kenfaith

Brilliant tripod with many adjustment options! Very robust and stable. I'm very satisfied and would recommend it.

I'm an amateur so let me start with that. This is still the best tripod I've ever owned and it's the first "serious" tripod I've ever bought. For people who have written in reviews that "for the price, it's this and that..." They must be professional photographers paying their rent with cameras. Because this tripod is great and I'm not sure what features you're paying for if you're paying more. For myself, I photograph food and drink for small business social media accounts. So my goals are professional, although I'm still an inexperienced photographer. I work remotely and do most of my filming at my house. So I really needed a tripod that could take top-down photos. I don't need my tripod for action shots or rough terrain. I probably won't take it with me on trips often either (for now). It's heavier than my other cheap tripods, but packs into its own travel case that easily fits in a carry-on suitcase.
However, I'm not afraid to take it outside. It feels very stable and strong and is almost taller than me when fully stretched! That's about 5ft 5in for the Americans or 165cm for the EU.
The package arrived on time in perfect condition. Very shiny and beautiful. yay!
My only issue is the click-locks that adjust the angle of the three legs. It's a small orange piece that I've added a photo of above. It seems a bit wobbly. And that keeps each leg in place and keeps the whole thing from falling over. I'm sure I'm just being paranoid, but I'll be extra careful with that when handling my tripod.
Overall I am very satisfied with this purchase. I feel like I just kicked up my photography game pretty hard! time to use it! 10/10 I would recommend!

Functionally, the tripod is better than my 3x as expensive. I am very enthusiastic about the stability, whereby the weight is low. The fact is also practical - it can be optimally attached to the backpack. The conversion to a monopod tripod is quite quick and requires little effort. Little plastic, but stable metal. I like it very much!

I bought this tripod for my cell phone and camcorder because I don't have a steady hand, and that's why I decided on this tripod because I can convert the tripod into different positions and even in a horizontal position you can take very good photos, I can only recommend the tripod.

The tripod is great as an all-rounder. Price/performance is very consistent.
The elements of the legs can be easily extended and tightened again. Only the locking buckles for the angle of the legs take some getting used to in operation.
A special feature is the center bar, which can also be positioned horizontally, allowing overhead work. So you can photograph and film things on a table etc. from above. This is really handy and keeps my camera + lens safe and secure without tipping over.
The bag that comes with it is useful but I don't use it. The quick-release fastener on the tripod head works reliably, the ball head also makes a solid impression and can be used precisely.
The maximum working height of the tripod is also very comfortable. The tripod could only be a little lighter, but at the price you have to make compromises somewhere.

Fast delivery, double-packaged, very solid quality, item corresponds to the description, instructions in English with graphics, sturdy carrying case with zipper and carrying strap. - It is easy to set up, it is very quick - it can be converted into many variants without tools - it is very good, safeguards against flaps together - ball head is smooth-running - easy to adjust. I use the tripod mainly for sports recordings (video and photo) in the hall, as well as for mini projectors with various mobile screens. This tripod is too massive for me on the go, there are lighter ones but they also have their own price. I will order two more removable disks, then my "mobile cinema" is perfect and I can quickly switch from recording to showing (video training).

I like the tripod because I can quickly switch to photography from above using the center column. This is easy and works wonderfully. Maybe the tripod isn't completely vibration-free, but I take pictures with macro settings anyway: remote shutter release, stabilizer off and mirror lock-up. Then nothing can go wrong :) What is also nice is the incredible length of the tripod. Sure - there are better, more stable, more expensive, for me it is absolutely suitable.
