my last tripod was $40 and broke after one week of using it. it was made from super cheap material so i decided to spend a little extra this time. hands down this is one of the most reliable tripod ive ever put my canon eos r with my RF lens on. my mirrorless camera adds up to a totall of four lbs and this tripod was still able to hols it.

Het statief is zeer licht en heeft een vrij kleine verpakkingsgrootte. Dat maakt het mijn vakantiestatief. Voor deze prijs heb ik niets beters gezien voor dit doel.

Nu heb ik hem ook meegenomen op mijn bergtochten.

Good product. Of course it's not big like those $200 tripod but you can't expect more. Good for every type of photography you do. Can even do really low angle. Recommend for y'all.

I've had a couple of such lightweight travel tripods, but this is the best there is. Firstly, it comes with a bag. I know, it's just a bag, but it isn't. It is tough, thick, may be slightly heavy for some people, but definitely something to product your tripod. Secondly, the head is great. Smooth, easily rotatable, and lockable. Last but not least, the instruction manual to teach you how to turn this tripod into a monopod. These three were missing in my previous lightweight travel tripods, so this takes the crown. Besides that, it is tall (62"), and the wheels slide in/out easily.

WOW.So my image is showing you how easy it was to unpack.open the box from Amazon and then you have this nice square rectangle box.Open the k&f concept tripod box and out pops a already pre-packed travel tote with the tripod inside. When you unzip that case out pops the tripod which is wrapped in one single piece of plastic.There's only one piece of trash, ONE, other than the box, which is ludicrous. The $14 tripod I bought on here years ago had paper on each piece. Piles of trash, and so was that tripod. LOL.Back to THIS tripod. You can see in my photo that the unit itself is tall. I am 6'4 and this made my jaw drop when I extended the legs all the way. It's very sturdy when at Max height.Anyways, this was a great purchase and using it in real life has been a delight so far.

I bought this tripod for my Sony nx80 so I could carry it on my hunting trips, and I'm very happy with it.I'm able to zoom my cameras to Max and get excellent steady footage. One feature that really helps is to be able to expand the legs and adapt it to any terrain and maintain the perfect level.I have mention that I switched the head to a fluid head to be able to pan a lot easier.Hope this helps and good luck!?

I bought this tripod two years ago to take with me on some international research. For three months I traveled throughout Europe, the Middle East, and Asia, and this tripod held up every step of the way. I primarily used this tripod for filming and light photography. Rig weight was around 4 lbs. I am leaving to continue my research soon, and this tripod will be in my carry-on bag yet again. I have broken this review down by section.PORTABILITY: 4/5ProsThis tripod folds up tight enough to easily fit inside most camera backpack tripod slings, and it easily fits within most carry-on bags (it's seen its fair share of airports with no problems). The tripod feels professional but is discreet enough to give some peace of mind while travelling. In most cases, I felt comfortable walking through the streets of a foreign country with this thing hanging off my backpack. Kinda gives off that "super devoted tourist" vibe rather than "Oh he looks professional does he have a license to film here?" vibe.Cons:This tripod is quite heavy. Weighing in at almost 2.5 lbs, I definitely noticed the tripod's weight after a long day of filming / shooting. It's so beefy that it ended up tearing my cheap backpack's tripod sling toward the end of my 3 month trip. The weight did help the tripod perform better in high wind conditions, though, and of course the weight contributes to the overall durability of the tripod, which is very high.VERSATILITY: 5/5Few cons here. Thanks to the independently locking leg system, which is achieved via a ratcheting mechanism that locks the legs at various angles, the tripod can help you stabilize your rig on almost any surface. From the mountains of Japan to the uneven limestone streets of Jerusalem, this tripod kept me stable. The adjustable center post is helpful in getting low shots. The included bubble level and ball-joint head really help with this.DESIGN: 4/5This tripod definitely feels meaty, sometimes to a fault. Nevertheless, while the rest of the tripod feels incredibly solid, the spring-loaded levers that lock the legs into place feel a bit fragile by comparison. This said, mine are still holding up after two years of off and on use, so perhaps the fragility is just cosmetic.BEST USE:I used this tripod mostly for filming with light photography applications. The ball-joint head was great for setting up shots quickly. This on-the-fly readiness definitely helped me snag some once-in-a-lifetime shots. At the same time, ball joint heads are not the best when it comes to pan and tilt shots that are common in filmmaking. I found that the consistent resistance offered by the head actually helped with pan shots, and I achieved some pretty smooth pans with this unexpected feature. Tilt shots were a nightmare, though.Luckily, the ball head can be screwed off and replaced by a "fluid head" of your choice, if filming is your goal.The tripod is stable enough to support long exposure photography in low wind conditions. I was able to do some VERY minor astrophotography with this tripod in calm conditions.VERDICT - A Fantastic Travel Tripod, and Not Just "For the Price"This is a great travel-oriented tripod whose durability, versatility, and adaptable design (removable ball joint head) offset the cons of its hefty weight and minor design gripes. If you need a durable, portable tripod capable of multidisciplinary shooting, look no further.

I am not an avid photographer, but I needed a reliable tripod so that I could use it for my projector. I am very happy that I choose this one because of how well it’s made. It has a very sturdy metal frame that can be set in different configurations. My projector weighs about 6 pounds, and this tripod was able to hold it effortlessly. The tripod is also very compact when folded and includes a traveling case which is a nice bonus. When using this tripod with my camera I found that the ball head was very easy to adjust and can be locked into position without worrying about my camera being moved. Another feature that I like about this tripod is that it has a bubble level included in the ball head. This helped me with both my projector and camera to ensure that it is in the correct position. Overall, I am verry happy with this item. I’ve purchased cheap tripods in the past that broke within a week, so it was worth it for me to spend a little bit more to get a better quality one. If you have an expensive camera that you want to keep safe, then I would suggest this tripod.

Just got mine! I am just starting in photography and this is a good value for your money. The ball head is smooth and it's easy to carry when you are hiking.

Great Tripod to set Camera closest to the ground. I like the ball head that comes with it. Tripod angle is set by locking mechanism that makes it more stable. Comes with nice caring bag too.
