Aluminum camera tripod, it can be rotated almost 360 degrees. The hitch is by ball, and a photo or video camera can be perfectly placed. It weighs nothing and is easy to handle. It has threads like locks so that it stays fixed and will not have vibrations.

I was looking for a tripod for my SLR camera, which was not very large, so that when folded I could carry it in my backpack.
This one was recommended to me, and I'm delighted with it.
It adapts perfectly to any type of camera, which I liked.
I pick it up in a moment and easily, it has good quality materials and brings its protective cover, quite good by the way.
I can regulate it to the height I want. At the top it has a ball joint that allows you to make any movement with the camera, as can be seen in the photos.
I also want to emphasize that it hardly weighs, it is very light and stable, it gives security when putting my camera in it.
The materials are of good quality, everything is designed and thought to the millimeter to get the most out of it.
Aesthetically it is black, with orange details, which makes it eye-catching.
For the quality it has at all, it has seemed expensive compared to others on the market, without a doubt it has been a good purchase.

I bought this tripod to replace my top-quality Manfrotto, which has been a trusty companion for over 20 years of professional photography.
I needed a smaller, but still solid tripod to fit in the back box of my Honda 50, along with a large medium format camera, for local photo-trips. I measured the back box interior and noted the dimensions information that was given with the tripod, and it fits perfectly (see photo).
I was a bit dubious about the ball head holding my very heavy camera, so I replaced it with the heavy-duty pan and tilt head from the Manfrotto and it works perfectly. I've put the ball head from this one on the Manfrotto to hold a DSLR that I use for digitizing negs.
No, it's not as sold and robust as the Manfrotto (which cost 3 times as much), and that's to be expected. But it looks like it will do the job, and saves me from putting a really heavy tripod on my back when I go out on the bike!

K & F products first caught my eye at the Photography show back in 2019 but I didn't really have a close look at any of their tripods as I was fixated on getting a Three Legged Thing. As it turned out I didn't buy anything and didn't get a tripod for more than a year. With finances tight I decided to take a chance on a K & F tripod figuring at that price it wouldn't be too much of a wrench if it wasn't great. I was very pleasantly surprised when it arrived to find that it was more than I expected for the money - seemingly very well built and nice and light into the bargain with a quality carry bag. There are only two negatives in my mind - why use all that lovely magnesium alloy and then stick on plastic knobs for the ball clamp and adjustment? Surely it wouldn't have increased the cost too much to make these in the same alloy? The ball clamp did click ominously one time I tightened it so I'm hoping it isn't going to be a possible weak point. Also, the tripod leg that unscrews to make up the monopod - the female thread is metal but I believe the male thread is plastic, why? I doubt I'll use this feature much so not too much of a concern. I wouldn't hold out much hope with customer services - I did email them about something and had a very strange reply. I don't think I'd even bother trying to pursue a warranty claim. TLT on the other hand are great to deal with and solved a problem with my Ellie very quickly.
It would have been nice to have detachable feet but I guess you can't have everything at this price point? The tripod has a very large height extension so unless you're over 6' 5" you won't have any problems using it. Lastly I really like the orange colour of the alloy components - it matches my Three Legged Thing Ellie L bracket perfectly! I honestly don't think you can go wrong at this price - mine will certainly suit my needs until I can upgrade to a carbon TLT in the future.
