Just opened and checked it out. First impression: Wow! Good value for the $$. More later...(Changed out the adapter by adding a Neewer Professional Aluminum Alloy Quick Shoe Plate Adapter, that has a nice visible-when-camera-mounted level and a locking safety feature.)The carrying bag is good quality. The tripod is very stable with my OM-D EM5III paired with a Pro 40-150 lens. Ready for Rainier National Park next week.

Exactly what I was looking for and I like it better then my expensive Manfrotto similar model I have.

This is my first tri-pod purchase and ended up going with the K&F because of extensive YouTube research. I love this tri-pod super nice, lightweight and sturdy. I'm using it for filming with my iPhone 11.

this is an amazing tripod.

This tri-pod is everything you want. Sturdy, carbon fiber, twist lock legs. Fits inside my bag if I want to. A hook for a weight bag. The head feels a little tight not so smooth maybe it has to break in.

Not a lot to say about this tripod that's bad. It's lightweight, looks fantastic, and is pretty adaptable. The three legs provide plenty of stability and the legs can even be deployed on the vertical to allow the camera to sit very close to the ground. Rest assured that those moon pictures will be nice and pretty. Solid recommend .

After a long hike or the airport check, anyone can tell the huge difference between the carbon fiber and aluminum tripods. This K&F Concept 61" Carbon Fiber Camera Tripod is the first lightweight tripod for me and I love it. It weighs just 2.6lbs with the bag and needs a little space. First I had concerns about the telescopic feet locking rings. Before I always used "clasp" type locks. As I see they need a little bit longer time to extend the legs but they hold firmly.This tripod is standing stable, even I use the telephoto lens or had to deal with windy weather.

Age and infirmities have ended my ability to traipse around with Nikons slung around my neck and a heavy field tripod in hand. That just isn’t going to happen anymore. Now I shoot mirrorless, action cameras and smartphone. Some of those have internal stabilization that obviates the need for a tripod and I also have gimbals. Still, there are occasions where a tripod is very useful. This is practically ideal for my individual circumstances. It is light: barely over 2 pounds. What a miracle! It is only 14 inches long when collapsed. It will fit in my luggage or pack. Comes with a nicely done carrying case as well. Tripod extends to 61 inches, though I wouldn’t go too far away from it when fully extended. Even with a light camera, there’s a chance a breeze could take it over. The central column is unique in that it has two sections. The column can be reversed for ground level shooting. The legs snap to two angles. I would have preferred three for greater flexibility, but it’s not a deal breaker. There’s a small Swiss Acra style mounting plate. The head also has a circular ball level. The ball head is usable, but not out-of-this-world terrific. The legs are twist-lock. I would prefer snaps, but that would probably have made the tripod less svelte and packable. For a guy like me, old and infirm, who shoots with small, lightweight cameras, the K&F Concept 61 is just plain terrific, well within my limitations when it comes to setup, deployment and handling. It’s so light and small that I don’t have to think twice about taking it. Just throw it in the pack. It’s there when I need it. Gotta love that carbon fibre!Jerry

I’ve been using an ancient heavy Tilt All for as long as I can remember and now I’m older and can’t carry so much weight but I still enjoy photography. I almost bought a carbon fiber pod years ago when they came out but they cost a fortune back then. This is an amazing value and great quality. This is fantastic tripod! It’s super small folded up yet very tall and full size extended and extremely lightweight. It’s so easy to carry and a snap to set up. It’s quite stable and very adjustable. It fits in my backpack and it doesn’t weigh me down at all. I wish I had this 40 years ago! This is excellent for travel, and great for hiking. I love this tripod and highly recommend it!

I am a Very satisfied customer. I am learning to make quick set up adjustments. I have a 200-500 Nikon lens. The tripod supports it. The attachment mechanism is good but it takes more time to pop in than my old tripod. Good value for money.
