The tripod is compact and lightweight. The mount is plastic which is a shame it would have been nice to have a metal one.The camera movement is nice and smooth and it has a lot of position. The legs are strong and sturdy. It needs a counterweight when using the overhead and the hook for one isn't the best.ProsNice build qualityeasy to adust lefts and head.smooth glide.light-weightConsplastic camera mounttips easy when using the overhead.Overall a nice tripod with a few bits that could be improved to make it prefect.

Best tripod I ever had in my entire life!!!!!That's all I have to say.

I've had this tripod for a couple of months now and have used it in a variety of shoots. For the price, I absolutely cannot fault it!- It's not the lightest tripod in the world but it's by no means "heavy".- It's almost infinitely adjustable, which allows it to work well in a huge range of positions. Spend a bit of time getting familiar with all the adjustment points and options and you'll be set!- It's solid and study enough for long exposures with absolutely no blur. There's even a hook under the main stem to hang some extra weight if you need the tripod to be truly solid, and if you can afford to lose some height you have the option of spreading the legs much wider (see photos).

As a large proportion of my photography is automotive I was looking for a tripod which as well as allowing the standard style of shots would allow extremely low down angles.Previously my low down shots have been band held however as I’m experimenting more with night photography I needed the ability to restrain the camera as low as possible angled up and with long exposures this needed to be sturdy.After looking at a lot of different Tripods I settled on the K&F as the pure versatility appeared to be more than many tripods at triple the price. I was pleasantly surprised upon just how flexible the tripod is, and if you’re prepared to think even further outside the box I was able to mount the camera upside down allowing it to be just millimetres above the ground for the best possible angle.With the ability to control every aspect of the tripod gives greater flexibility, the ball head and ability to mount the column horizontal or vertically gives a lot of control. I was skeptic all about how far the camera can over hang but providing the camera body is within the limits of the legs your find, and with the ability to hang you kit bag underneath for extra stability I can’t see have any trouble with that aspect. I’ve yet to try the mono-pod mode but imagine that will come in handy in tight places and the fact I’ll always have it with me as it’s part of the tripod is great.I was really pleased with the included carry case which also includes a strap, a real bonus as my camera bag is messenger style and doesn’t accommodate a tripod so I can just throw it over my shoulder.This is my first K&F product but will be sure to consider their other products as I grow my accessory collection.I’ve included a few photos of how I’ve managed to set up the camera on the tripod.

Good sturdy tripod, great vaule for money. Maybe lacks afew pro features but I knew that, but product you get for the price is good.

Nice bit of kit and very versatile. Can be used in a number of ways. Took a little bit of working out at first but works really well. Only concerns are the center piece inside the tightening screw thing has a plastic part which really feels cheap and I thought was actually broken at first because it came out. Also I had a Canon 80d with a 24-70 2.8 lens attached and with this fully extended and my son brushed pass it and it fell over really easily with a heavy lens so be cautious when using this with heavy gear and being away from it at events or around kids ect. Its light weight and folds up really well and I'm sure you will love it for its versatility but build quality could be improved in many ways as latch springs also don't feel to great when pressing them. Overall great bit of kit for the price of £65 and does the job it's supposed to. Brilliant if you do macro photography.

All perfect

 Amazing tripod, it's lightweight and still provides great stability. It's a very sturdy build and has been used on a windy night for astro photography with brilliant results

Easy to use and carry around. The camera can be rotated 180 degree. Very stable and strong. I can keep my expensive camera on it without any hesitation. Easy to adjust the angle and hight. I wanted get something stable lightweight and easy to use. It has ticked all the boxes for me. Also I am very happy with the price I have paid for this quality.

My old Manfrotto just broke (it’s been a disappointment generally) so it was time to try something different. I was attracted to this one because you can tilt the central column over by 90 degrees. I do macro photography and this makes it much easier to get the camera just where you want it, even when you’re against a table or need to point the camera straight down. I also like how you can have the legs at different angles – there’s a simple ratchet on each leg and you can splay the legs right out and have your camera nearly at ground level. It’s just tall enough for me when fully extended (I’m 172cm tall).The damped fluid head rotates really smoothly in two different places. You'd be able to do really nice video pans with this, especially if you have the central column at 90 degrees and use it as a handle.It’s not especially heavy but when collapsed to be its smallest does feel quite chunky. But it’s easy to carry over your shoulder with the very nice padded carry case. There’s even a velvet pouch to protect the head of a tripod in there. And there’s a sprung hook at the bottom of the column to hang something like a heavy bag to stabilise the tripod.There are so many features my old tripod didn’t have, like a bubble spirit level, easy conversion to a monopod (you get a small extension tube and an allen key for this), and a quick release plate. I’m starting to be glad the Manfrotto broke!All the knobs and moving parts operate smoothly. The tripod feels solid and well-engineered and is a pleasure to use. It looks good too.Any niggles? Hardly. Mine doesn’t stand ‘quite’ straight even with all legs fully extended, though that doesn’t matter because you level the camera at the head. Also, I would have preferred all the adjustment knobs to be wing nuts. Only one is and you realise it’s easier than the others to turn, but it’s no big deal. Oh, and the instructions are terrible.Overall, I think this is great tripod, the best I've used. It's good value too.
