Overall, a very good fit for my needs. Very small to carry, and very light - almost forget it is there! Very easy to deploy and then pack up again. One shortfall: With the quick release plate mounted onto the camera, and all 3 tripod controls tightened, the camera / tripod assembly is NOT completely rigid - the end of the 250mm lens can move through approximately 5/8 inch. This means that when the shutter is released, even remotely, there can be some camera movement.For me, this is not a fatal flaw, as I value small folded-carry size, light weight, and easy deployment & fold-for-carry above absolute rigidity, as this tripod is being carried on beach and forest trails, and it MUST be easy to carry and fast to use. Better rigidity would have been nice, but it is 4th priority for me.

This is an amended review of the product, ans the first product arrived damaged.Dcmall were very helpful and got in contact with me regarding my purchase and sent me a replacement straightaway, which arrived very quick.I was very happy with their after sales customer service.After using the tripod for few days, my first impressions was that the tripod was stable, lightweight and very portable. I feel that the tripod descriptions is accurate, does exactly what it says on the product description.The only thing i felt was that some of the adjustment controls seemed basic, but still does the job.

Pretty much this tripod is as described, but it isn't ever so sturdy if you used it on rough terrain! Also it's so frustrating getting it on the actual tripod to start with, you either have to keep twisting around your camera on it or take the top part off put the camera on & reassemble, neither easy! & finally I can't figure out how to straighten the camera once it's on there! All in all... it's ok for the money as it's good to carry around but I'm on the verge of whether it may be returned too!

This tripod is great. It has three to four adjustable leg positions depending on how you count them. It also raises the center to increase the height even more if needed.It has a leveler built into its lightweight build.As it is lightweight, I would not recommend using this when it is really windy.

A nice tripod to use at home. Too lightweight to use outside when it's windy. It's folds down nice and compact, which I love, easy to store! I like the quick release, although it would've been nice if it was metal, but I bet if it was the price would be higher. its no manfrotto, but good enough for the average joe.Pros:-lightweight-comes with carry case-compact-built in levelerCon:-quick release is plastic

After writing my previous review I was contacted by the manufacturer. They replaced the defective tripod and shipped the second that I had not received. Kudos for very good customer service from K & F (HiShop). They are light duty tripods without fluid heads, which I knew going in. I use these in a high school with GoPro's. We'll have to see about the longevity next school year. Minimalist tripod but excellent customer service from the manufacturer. I would be willing to bet their pricier tripods are probably probably worth considering.

I initially received a tripod with an issue with one of the legs and it was unable to stabilize my camera. However, the sellers are excellent and quickly replaced the product with a functional one. This tripod is perfect for travelling and hiking because of the ligĥtweight but sturdy design.

Great quality for the price paid. Used it for several weeks now and never had a problem. Hope it stays this way!

Stable enough o a platform for its size and construction. Very practical for air travel, or hiking, where a larger heavier mount would prove burdensome.
