I was looking for a tripod to replace my old one, as it was having stability problems. I found this one while searching for one and after looking at the reviews, I decided to give it a try.Honestly, it's amazing! It's a tripod, a monopod, it also has a vertical/horizontal camera holder, weight hook, and the legs can be reversed for better portability. Only downside in this is probably the weight, which is just a bit heavier than usual. However, I think that for the price that is being asked, it's hard to find something better. It's pros outweight the cons a lot. I am very satisfied with this product, as it fills every need I had while looking for a new tripod and I recommend it for anyone - begginer or professional!

Very good tripod for your camera!!! I have a Nikon D5200 and it has been alread a good companion for my trip in Australia. Used in windy and dirty situations also used to carry with me along my walks in its case with strap. Very easy to carry and quick to deploy, sill sturdy and able to lock your camera in windy weather. I didn’t use properly the orizzontal boom yet, but I found it very easy to use and very usefull for tutorial on table or for macro photos. The opportunity to loock the camera in a specific position, and still move it in orizzontal way, it’s usefull for pano or wide seen, but also feels like an hydraulic movement as it’s so smooth.

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.

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.
