Carbon Fiber Camera Tripod 68''/1.7m Professional Photography Tripod with 30mm Metal Ball Head Load Capacity 12KG/26.4lbs X-Series X254C4+BH-30
SKU: KF09.116
I have and have had a few tripods for my cameras and can therefore judge quite well what a tripod is like. I didn't expect much from this one for the price and intended use (primarily cell phones) and assumed that it wasn't particularly stable. I thought wrong then.
It arrived well packed in an extra bag in the box. When I unpacked it, I was impressed by how well made it is and how stable it is in the end. It's also quite small when folded, but can eventually become quite large. To extend the feet, you have to turn them and they are unlocked and you can pull them out. To lock, turn it in the opposite direction. However, I would be a bit careful with this mechanism, because it can also come loose quickly. A camera with a little more weight should not be left unattended.
The piece in the middle can be removed and used as a monopod or selfie stick. To do this, you take the middle piece out of the actual tripod and turn it to unlock it, then you can pull it out quite a bit and then you lock it again.
Even as a selfie stick, it's pretty stable and well made.
There is also a mobile phone holder and a remote control, but I have not tested them because I will use it for a small camera, because it is absolutely sufficient for that. But I wouldn't use it for heavier, larger and more expensive cameras, because then I wouldn't trust the tripod.
The ball head is easy to loosen and tighten. With smaller cameras, it also holds wonderfully.
Summarized:
- Very small when folded, but very large when unfolded
- Not too heavy (I think it's still okay for the size)
- Nice and stable, but I wouldn't exhaust the specified 4 kg
- Super workmanship
- Closures for taking off the legs work, but catch a bit and you have to be careful with them because they can easily come loose
- Mobile phone holder and remote control are included
- Ball head holds
- The price is absolutely fine
If the fasteners for taking them off were made a little better, I would have given a full 5 stars.

Before that I was on the road with a real Billo tripod for years and didn't celebrate it at all, the old part broke relatively quickly after a while. Even if this tripod is from a "K&F Concept" brand, it looks very valuable, robust and fulfills its purpose! I actually only use it for digital content and it does exactly what it should. In addition, you can play around with some things, but I hardly ever use them. Clear purchase recommendation!

I got the tripod for shootings or to take longer landscape shots.
However, since I mainly work without a tripod in the shooting area and landscape shots are more likely to be taken on vacation, I don't want to spend so much money on it.
This tripod from K&F Concept is inexpensive and serves its purpose, it is easy to adjust and has flexible size adjustment.
However, you notice the price in the materials, which are not of the best quality.
However, this does not mean that the tripod is not stable
The only thing I would wish for would be more displays to bring the tripod in plumb.
So, as already mentioned, for hobby photographers who only occasionally use a tripod, perfectly adequate and very good value for money.

Not a quality product, but good value for money and great support!
The tripod doesn't feel high quality, but it's not cheap either, it's absolutely ok for this price range.
The processing is basically good, unfortunately the handle, which also serves as a locking screw for the camera mount, was defective on my part, the quint was totally messed up, was therefore unusable because without this part the camera, especially with a heavy lens, would not hold and constantly lagged behind front tilts.
