K&F Concept 64 inch/162cm DSLR Tripod,Lightweight and Compact Aluminum Camera Tripod with 360 Panorama Ball Head Quick Release Plate for Travel and Work B234A1+BH-28 (TM2324)
SKU: KF09.007
Just got a new Fuji X-H2 replacing my X-T3 and needed a sturdier tripod and as I already have a K&F concept for studio work so my first choice was another K&F unit. This was an excellent choice not to heavy for travelling but robust enough for landscape photography and the hiever camera

I'm excited! So far I've struggled with 2 cheap tripods where the movements in the joint were sluggish, the stand was not stable and there was a constant risk that the tripod would tip over. But if you buy cheap, you end up buying twice. Or three times. I am completely satisfied with the new tripod! Top quality at a fair price. Everything seems well made and of good quality. The grippy rubber mount completes the package. The camera mounts well and movements are smooth and accurate in all dimensions. The stand is stable. I still have to voice one point of criticism: the telescopic legs have to be opened up individually. I would find quick-release fasteners more practical as with other tripods.

Another positive is:
1. The pack size is really small.
2. The tripod includes a monopod, making it really versatile.
3. The working height is pleasantly high despite the small pack size. The second stabilizing clamp for the center column is very good and mechanically well thought out. Bravo!!
4. The tripod can be weighed down with a hook and a weight.
5. Scaling makes it easier to take panoramic or multiple shots.
6. The tripod is light and thus also allows longer mountain tours.
7. The head allows for very smooth panning.
All in all, I think the price for the range of services offered is still very good. The tripod is lightweight, yet stable and versatile. It is an ideal travel tripod.

Good quality and handy in size and weight. Clamping the camera is a bit fiddly but once it is in place everything is great.

Great and fast delivery. The tripod stands great on the floor and doesn't wobble a bit. After use, this fits perfectly in the bag (included with the purchase). You have to wait and see about the durability and quality.

The tripod makes a very good first impression. It is easy to carry in the pocket as well as in working mode but stable enough against shocks, the shake test with the camera (Lumix DC FZ 82) was good.... Fully unfold the tripod, fully extend the center support and extend the camera to superzoom , then shake the tripod a little - so you can see on the display of the cam how much the vibrations affect the picture in terms of sharpness and that it also has its limits for the price. I haven't been able to try it out in strong winds. The function of the individually adjustable tripod legs is practical, they can be perfectly adapted to the ground. They can be removed at the desired height with a clamp fastener - and pushed back in again, in this case it works all by itself if you hold the ends upwards. The legs can be folded out almost completely horizontally. A dragonfly (spirit level) supports straight positioning, even on sloping or uneven surfaces. In normal operation, the tripod reaches a maximum height of 1.60 without a camera. The perfect height for me. Settings for tilting the shooting position vertically and/or horizontally with a ball head is done in a few steps. The camera mount has to be removed in order to attach the camera with a screw. Brief instructions are included, but only in English and Chinese. It cannot be used as a monopod. All in all I am very satisfied with this tripod, which I finally decided on, the selection is almost unmanageable, as is the price range. This tripod fulfills its purpose and I can highly recommend it.

The tripod is of really high quality. We were surprised as our last tripod cost around three times as much. But what really impressed us was how compact it is. It comes with a small transport table, so you can take it with you and don't have to carry a tripod yourself. The tripod can be fully extended up to the specified height and has several angle options. All in all, we are really enthusiastic and give a clear purchase recommendation!

I 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 therefore the legs often "retract" when setting 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 at the same time great flexibility in terms of leg rotation and freedom of movement thanks to the ball head.

So what can I say, when the tripod arrived I was really excited about what I would experience when I unpacked it. I could hardly believe that I could get such an all-round solid tripod for so little money and that in a sturdy carrying case. The tripod can be handled suuuuper because nothing really rattles or wobbles, it has a great price/performance ratio and is compact paired with good application possibilities also because of the good ball head. I use the tripod for my mirrorless Panasonic G6 with and without flash and now with an additional attachment for my Huawei P30 pro. For windy conditions there is also a mounting hook on the lower column where you can add weight. I really trust the tripod as it is stable and there is another great way to work close to the ground with the camera as you can completely reverse the tripod/legs so the camera is close to the ground to do macros for example or to photograph from a frog's perspective to give the motif more size. Incidentally, 360°C shots are also possible with the ball head, so it is also good for filming or taking panorama shots.

The tripod is of very good build quality, it's lightweight and comes with a bag so it's easy to carry. The height can be increased up to 150cm, which is enough for me and the tripod has many adjustable angles, so the camera can also be set upside down. This is a very useful tool for photographers considering that the price is also very good. it is a bit shiny and prone to scratches if not used carefully.
