I simply copied the complete text from my YouTube video for you. If you prefer to watch the video "K&F Concept X-Series Carbon Tripod I Is it really a perfect all-rounder tripod?" Enter on YouTube. Or my channel on YouTube - Konstantin Lempe.
The X-Series Carbon tripod with the designation X254C4 - BH-30. It is ultra light, made of carbon and aluminum, it can actually be used anywhere, whether for filming or photography, outdoors or in the studio... it actually covers everything very well.... It is primarily to be found in the semi-professional and hobby sectors. I use it everywhere now. When unpacking, the first pleasant surprise came in the form of a great tripod bag. Also in the box is a shoulder strap for the bag, an Arca Swift tripod plate, Imbus key to adjust the degree of softness on the tripod head when panning, there is a manual for who needs it and of course the most important thing, the tripod itself . It is kept in a beautiful matt black, and all the fasteners are in silver and a good size, which makes the tripod a real eye-catcher alone. If you hold it in your hand, you can tell that it is a high quality product. But let's start with the bag first, and unlike many other tripods, it's not some kind of plastic sack bag. K&F didn't show any weaknesses, on the contrary. All seams on the whole bag are clean, beautiful and well made... It makes a very high quality impression. It is well padded on the inside and you can also attach a carrying strap to the side if you want to put it on your shoulders, for of course, of course, on the go. The tripod weighs just 1.6kg and is made of rubber, carbon fiber and aluminium. There is no plastic used, to my surprise, which makes it not so prone to damage or breakage if it should be dropped, which unfortunately, quite, can happen from time to time. The working height is 1.40 meters when the center column is retracted and when the tripod is fully extended, you get up to 1.72 meters. With the camera on it you can calculate about 10 cm with it. The material is very stiff and light. If you extend the center column completely, absolutely nothing wobbles. According to the manufacturer, you can load up to 12 kg onto the tripod. I tested it with a bit more and even then, to my surprise, the legs didn't give out, they stayed straight, they didn't even buckle or bend slightly. The fastening screw for the middle column is slightly larger, which, in addition to the optical advantage, also has the technical advantage that you can screw it very well, even with large hands, and above all easily and very firmly. The center pillar is also very easy to deploy and retract. Of course, the tripod head can also be rotated 360 degrees and everything goes smoothly, which is a very important point for filmmakers. When panning, you won't see any stuttering in the picture later. It can easily keep up with the by far more expensive tripods. Even there, the panorama button is a bit larger. In general, all the closures on this tripod are a bit larger, which is not only an eye-catcher, but above all in practice, where you need it, it makes locking and opening extremely easy, which in turn means that the size of the all the locking screws makes sense. They're almost the perfect size. This is very well thought out and implemented by K/F Concept. There is a ¼ screw in the tripod plate, ok well, as with all tripod plates, which is actually the standard size on almost every camera, it also has a small rubber coating on top, so that the camera does not slip on the plate can, especially when panning, for example. --- The bracket is of course ARCA-Swift which means that you don't need the plate at all with an L braked grip on the camera, for example. There is also a small water scale on it for the ball head to align. A water scale for the tripod itself, for the legs, maybe on top of one leg as you know it from other tripods, would have been very nice, I would think, at least as a small side note. What I do not consider as a minus to the tripod. If you work a lot with YouTube Shorts or are on the go on Tiktok, you can of course also set the camera upright. It's quick and easy. The leg closures can be easily opened and closed. Due to their size, they are very good and have a good grip and can be opened and closed easily, but not too easily. The tripod is set up very quickly. The legs can be adjusted in 3 different angles. As you know it from other tripods. One can
