K&F Concept Desktop Mini Tripod for Camera, 20.5''/ 52cm Compact Tripod with 360° Low Profile Ball Head, 1/4'' Screw Travel Tripod Quick Release Plate for Camera Video Camcorder, Load Capacity 6KG

This is a very useful tabletop tripod strong enough to hold a mirrorless or DSLR with lenses that aren't overly heavy. The manufacturer rates it as capable of 13lb load. I didn't try anything that heavy, but it was fine with about 4-5 points of my gear.

It folds down really small for carrying and can be set up for anywhere from about 2" to 20" high. It has a pretty decent ball mount on top with an Arca Swiss clamp. That's great because all my gear use Arca plates. It comes with an Arca plate if you need one and also a phone clamp and hex wrench. Nice package overall.

It has a 1/4"-20 hole to mount a monitor of whatever else you might want. Nice touch. The knurling on the height adjustment stem is good. Everything feels pretty solid overall. But I have my nitpicks...

1. The have a foam padding around each of the legs. I'm not quite sure what purpose it serves (maybe so you don't feel cold when handling the tripod), but it is a soft, low density foam. I'm pretty sure it is going to fall apart after some months or years of use, or at least look like someone chewed it up. I'd have preferred no foam or a really hard rubbery material rather than the foam.

2. The screwing/unscrewing mechanism to extend/close the legs doesn't feel very smooth. It feels somewhat cheap. It doesn't feel like you are operating a well machined piece of equipment. Improving the feel of extending/recessing the legs would be good. Just make it as nice a feel as the knurled metal lock used for the height adjustment stem.

3. The legs themselves are plastic and slightly flimsy feeling. I am sure it is very difficult to find a balance of weight, price, and material quality. And I am probably asking for too much from something that costs close to 50 bucks. But a nice set of carbon fiber legs with better extension/recessing mechanism would make this product even better.

Anyway, I think it is a pretty decent value for money if you are looking for a compact, tabletop tripod to mount up to perhaps 6-8 pounds of gear.

very nice tabletop tripod with ball head. the legs adjust easily and click into place. fits my f38 mount. very happy with it.

This is a great tabletop tripod for shooting when you need to keep the camera steady. For my purposes, I mostly use it to shoot product demonstrations. It folds compactly to just over 7" and the legs can be extended to just over 20" if you need some height. When folded it can easily fit into a backpack without taking up much space. Legs can be adjusted to minimize or maximize height. The ball head allows for easy adjustment and can orient your camera in both landscape and portrait. Well built and it looks like a quality item. K&F is making some very nice products and this is no exception.

I ordered this as a desk mount for when Vlogging with a Sony ZV-E10 with a 16mm Prime mounted and it could have been designed for the task!
As with all K&F products I own manufacturing quality is second to none, as is operability being very quick to deploy or pack away.
The camera is held rock steady, I didn't need to use the supplied plates as the camera cage I use has one built into the base, and adjustment, whilst limited for height, is just enough to get a perfect angle when recording.

Yet another recommendation for this brand.

The second you see this in real life and pick it up you know it's a winner.
K&F Concept have been making some really fantastic photography and videography products in recent months but this has to be the best thing they've ever produced.

Taking it out of the box this immediately feels total quality. It feels unbreakable, rock solid, expertly put together and you know that it's going to do the job.

It is a mini tripod perfect for table top or using on surfaces when you don't quite need a full six foot tripod, although the legs do extend quite a bit if you need them to (just twist and pull and out they come!)

It's absolutely tiny really considering what it does, and is so compact you could almost put it in your pocket but don't let that make you think this isn't a solid tripod because this thing is a beast and can handle a full 6KG weight!

It's legs spread out as far as you want them to thanks to an absolutely brilliant ratcheting system, just open the clip, pull out the leg, and then close the clip - done! Every tripod should have this feature

There's a built in ball-head and yes it transforms from landscape to portrait in a second if you want to switch up what kind of shot you're taking

It has a built in spirit level, quick release plate for rapidly taking your camera on/off the tripod and even a threaded hole for attaching other items such as microphones, lights or whatever you want.

If you're into macro or low down shots it goes almost flat to the floor too

Basically whatever you need from a small tripod this is the one to get. it has everything and other nice touches that you might not even have thought of.

I think K&F Concept are my favourite company right now. They just keep delivering products that totally exceed your expectations.

Best tripod I've ever used by quite some way
