This tripod is everything I wanted it to be. Great build quality, lightweight, sturdy and easy to operate. It's perfect for traveling with my micro four-thirds camera.

 I am a professional photographer and there are times when camera shake even on a tripod would ruin my pictures, and being that I am in Alaska there are times when these pictures occur very far from any paved road. So as much as I want to start a tripod I also need it to be light, and this tripod has achieved both being sturdy and being a light. As matter fact it has successfully replaced my other tripods!

This K&F Concept TC2335 tripod is really compact, the legs fold back over the ball-head and up against the center column, which makes this a great feature if you're looking for a tripod that you can take it anywhere. It also comes with a nice carrying bag ready for travel. This is a nice think if you need to walk any distances with your tripod, plus it will easily fit inside an average sized suitcase, even airplane carry-on luggage.The reason I purchased this tripod was to use it outdoors while hiking and for photographs of landscape. This tripod is capable to stand little over 53 inches tall or with its reversible center column get as low to the ground as you would want for macro photography. You can also replace existing head and put any head you want.Center column is designed with hook that you can use to attach sand bag, or just hang your hiking back pack to increase tripods stability. It has non-slip rubber feet to keep it steady. Max weight load is listed as just little over 26lb.With Tripods folded length of less than 14”, carry bag and weight just shy of 2 pounds it’s no wonder that it is my favorite to take it to all my outings. And with tripods 5 section legs it makes the tripod pretty versatile too.

Ive been using a basic tripod for my camera for the past year but the sacrifices I made to have it be lightweight wasnt worth it. I decided to get this one since it is carbon fiber and it collapsed a different way then the standard tripod.I just LOVE how this collapses, it lets the head of the tripod be within the legs of the tripod when collapsed. This allows me to actually use it to mount the camera upside down as well.Great tripod, its my go to travel tripod now.

Ok I was completely sceptical considering the price point but decided to give it a go. I was very pleasantly surprised! I own a few tripods so I compared this K&F Concept Professional Carbon Fiber Camera Tripod with 360 Degree Ball Head Quick Release with an old Manfrotto 3001 and a Zomei Z818. I was also able to borrow a Vevo and a Manfrotto befree. I wasn't kind to the K&F putting it through things I would never do in real life. Obviously not as sturdy as the 3001 Manfrotto but that's a beast which can double as a weapon. But against the others it shined. Made of Carbon fibre with exceptionally unbelievable weight and easily foldable this general purpose/travel tripod checks all the boxes. It's lightweight, sturdy and looks good. I took this baby hiking perfect tool and the monopod option is the best I've seen yet. This tripod has become my favourite and go to in most cases. When you find a product that can hold it's own against (and in some cases beat) the much higher priced competition you simply have to take notice. My only complaint is I would have preferred a lever/handle instead of a knob on the ball head. I highly recommend this unit. I am a professional photographer specializing in trekking and hiking photography.In the end, would I have rather had my rock steady franken-tripod? Yes. Would I have dragged in on and off rides and through a crowded park all day? No way. This tripod was nearly perfect for what it is: A small, light travel tripod that still gives you a reasonable working height.

When I received this product, there was a familiar smell; kind of like fish food coming from the bag. The tripod itself is very light and fits (with the carrying case) inside my backpack. None of my other tripods would come even close.The material quality and moving parts are also well made and feel sturdy for travel. I love that it has a compass and bubbles on multiple areas to help me align the tripod.I wish the pan head would move separately from the ball.

I am impressed with how this tripod is compact and stable. It holds my DSLR with battery grip and a 24-105L lens. Quick release ball head is great. Tripod itself is lightweight but it can be stabilized by adding extra weight on a bottom hook which is great. I use it for panoramic shots and for selfies. The fact that it's light and compact was one of the main factors for me to buy it as I will be taking it on my trips.

I have been using other cheap tripods before, but I only this KF tripod satisfy my need. It has a metal ball head can be rotated 360 degrees and enlarge the view area through the panoramic shot. Automatic stability suspension system. The tripod came in this nice, sturdy, zip-up case that has both handles and a shoulder strap. Inside, the tripod fits quite snuggly and the legs fold back up around the column to help ensure it is as compact as possible. To deploy the tripod, you simply flip the legs down and the spring-loaded locks will click into place. There are 4 notches on each leg for three different angles, and the thumb latches you press down to adjust them feel well-machined and sturdy.Once deployed, the center column can be adjusted up and down for added height by loosening and tightening the center lock. The lock feels very sturdy and I had no concerns about it being unable to support the weight of my cameraThis K&F can also get extremely close to the ground for nice low-angle shots. You can also invert the center post and get your camera right down at ground level for maximum closeness.All in all, I was pleasantly surprised by this tripod and feel very confident recommending it to anyone looking for a solid, portable tripod at a reasonable price. Nice carrying bag. Solid metal construction. Compact design. 90-degree tilt feature surprisingly fun and useful. Great value for the price.

 So this item first and foremost smells like rotten fish. Like the kind that you find in the dumpster. The tripod has this smell faintly if you put your nose on it, but the bag has this smell. I sprayed some cologne on it but it barely did anything. Personally, I dont care about that and it should be easy to fix if you mind it.The tripod itself is carbon fiber. At first I found some leftover glue residue on one of the legs but its now long gone. Not an issue. Dont unscrew off the entire leg or else it will come off, just twist a bit off.The tripod-to-camera screw keeps getting loose, but the ball adjustor is amazing. Use lighter loads or else ball adjustor will slightly be more difficult to work with.8.5/10 -Feels good, light, and gets tall if you need it. Great photography tripod, if you can mind the initial smell.
