This tripod is surprisingly sturdy for its size and weight. When the 3 section legs are fully extended and locked, there is no wobble when I shake them, and almost no bend when pushing down on the tripod. The legs lock with clamp style rockers that are very easy to use. The feet are rubber, and pivot on a point to allow for better positioning. Overall this is a great standard tripod. One thing to note is that this is not a travel tripod. So it is a bit bulky, if your looking for something to travel with, this is not the one for you. This one is better fitted for in home use where it will not be traveling. I received this item in exchange for a fair and honest review.

 This is a good entry level tripod with some great features but also a few concerns.Excellent Customer Service: I contacted K&F and they immediately shipped me out another one while I returned the first one to Amazon. So K&F gets 5 stars for customer service!Now lets talk about the tripod itselfK&F calls this Tripod a professional tripod however I would call it a beginner or entry level tripod and here's whyProfessional tripods have a 1/4' or 3/8' threaded stem screw which allows you to remove and install different tripod heads if you wish.The head on this K&F Tripod is permanently attached to the center post and there is no way to remove it if you want to install another.There are some great features on this tripod.First off if you're a tall person (over 6 ft) this tripod is excellent for you because it will extend to a height of 66" and is still fairly sturdy. oNext it's lightweight, compact and has self levelling feet. It has a handy hanging hook on the bottom of the center stem and it comes with a nylon carry bag with shoulder strap.Now a couple concerns:First the horizontal pan head on this tripod is awful and renders it useless for video shooting and better suited for still photography. Even at it's lowest setting there is still too much friction and resistance to smoothly pan.The second concern with this tripod is the large camera mounting plate and smelly, off gassing rubber. The camera mounting plate is Too Large and blocks the SD and Battery compartment on the bottom of my camera. This means I need to remove the camera plate every time I need to change the battery or SD card. Next is the smell of the rubber on the plate. It's been over a week now and the rubber still has a strong, pungent odor.The last concern is the price. There are several other tripods very similar to this one selling on Amazon for around $30. The K&F TL2823 is 6 inches taller than the $30 dollar tripod but it's hard to justify paying more than twice the price when the only difference between the two tripods is an additional 6 inches of height.Overall the K&F Concept is a good entry level tripod, ideal for tall people and best suited for still photography and not video.I received a sample product from the manufacturer for testing and unbiased review.

The K&F Concept Professional Tripod is a great tripod if you're looking for a tripod that won't break the bank. It comes with a lot of amazing features as well as a solid build, and the overall package is just great. To keep this review clear and simple for you guys, i'm going to go over the pros and cons of this product, explaining each one in detail when necessary. For a demonstration of how the tripod exactly works, please refer to the video.☯PROS ::1. DURABLE & ROBUSTThe tripod consists of two main materials – metal and plastic. The metal composes the legs – basically the majority of the tripod. Adjusting mechanisms like knobs, clips, the handle, etc. are made of plastic. BUT DON’T BE FOOLED, because the plastic used in this tripod is high quality plastic. The plastic does not feel cheap in any way, and feels extremely durable. When knobs on the tripod are tightened, it does not worry me that the threads are going to get easily stripped. Overall, the build quality of this tripod is flat-out *amazing*.2. PRECISE, SMOOTH ADJUSTMENT MECHANISMSAs I mention above, there are a few knobs and clips to adjust the height and angle of the tripod. All the adjustments included on this tripod are extremely intuitive and useful. They work very well and lock in tightly.3. ROTATING FEETThe feet at the bottom of the tripod rotate, and are able to conform to rugged terrains.4. PORTABILITY – handle, retractable, carrying bagThere’s handle at the shaft of the tripod, for carrying the tripod quickly from one spot to another. It’s also retractable, to approximately 22 inches. The product also comes with a nice fabric carrying bag, so you can fit the retracted tripod in there and carry it to wherever you need it.☯CONS ::1. STIFF 360 HORIZONTAL MECHANISMAs I demonstrate in the video, the horizontal 360 turning mechanism is a bit stiff. It’s slightly stiffer than other mechanisms in the tripod. Watch video to see what I mean.2. COMPARABLY HIGH PRICEI was able to find tripods of similar quality (and actually look very similar to this one) on Amazon for as low as $30. Note that I do not own the cheaper alternative items so I wouldn’t know how they stack up compared to this specific tripod. However, according to the reviews they seem to offer similar functionality and build quality. I personally feel that $75 is a bit on the pricey side compared to competing products in the same category.*For various photos of the product that I took: [...]So having said all that, I would definitely recommend this tripod for photography and videography enthusiasts out there. I am aware that this written review is not as thorough as my other reviews, and that’s mostly due to the fact that I included a video review. This review needed more demonstration than my other reviews.Note that I received this product at a discounted price for testing and review purposes. I aim to produce reviews that are helpful for the average consumer, and also helpful for manufacturers in improving their products. I do NOT promise positive reviews.I hope this review was helpful to you on making your purchase decision. Thanks for reading!
