Thanks to my friends on youtube, I got recommendation for tripod from K&F. Right after I got it, I had to test it and now I'm using it 5-8 hours every day where I see it amazing. Most important to me is extended horizontal stick, where I can use it for ground shots or shots above certain product. And how small it is when it's assembled, fits everywhere!Now after I tried tripod, I'm sure I will test more from K&F!

I have been very please with this lightweight travel tripod. It is extremely versatile and can be used in a range of configurations as shown in the attached photos. The build quality is very good, each of the legs has a latch that locks into place when extended. One of the legs is fully removable and can be used as a monopod. The tripod head has a fluid motion which is excellent for videography. Very pleased.

Review uodate!Have this amazing multifunctional tripod for a couple of months and have to admit its very very good! This company had such a great idea of creating such a helpful device! There is no change of quality since I bought this item, works perfectly after 5!months.Really happy with my choice!Hello guys!This is my 4th K&F product, i am in love with this company! So far their products proved me that they are good quality.This tripod in particular is very light, easy to use and STEADY!The reason I bought it is for its transverse feature, I shoot OVERHEAD food videos and its really helpful! Check the pictures. Besides this why to get a monopod when you have K&F? It has rubber grip, easy to mount, very light! I was checking online for similar products with the same features, well at least double price. Think about this.What i like the most about this product? Well, the rotation screws, just simply to use and really functional.I think you can place it anywhere because you can modify the postion of the legs this is why i manage to fit it on the table i am using to film. What you see in the pictures is not actually what I do, I am waiting for my wife to come back from the market with goodies and to start filming. Sorry that I didnt put pictures of the process but its the same thing. I also take pictures of interior, well, used it for a short session like for 30 min and im happy with it, as you can see in the last picture, its amazing how small it can be.Next K&F product I am going to get........a backpack!!!If my review helped you in any way, could you please click on the ‘helpful’ button below? Thank you

Was looking for another tripod with a removable head so I can fit my Manfrotto fluid head onto. The tripod is super compact, lightweight and sturdy.This tripod has allowed me to do overhead shots and amazingly it's holding my Panasonic GH5, but obviously you have to make sure you have the supporting leg in the same direction.Overall I'm very happy with it and it's so versatile for many different scenarios.

What impresses immediately in thist K&F Concept 60" Tripod is the quality and the attention to detail, beginning in the sturdy carry bag. The 39 cm tripod can open up to 154 cm. You can use the tripod in countless situations, being very versatile for shooting night shots, taking product shots, macro shots at the ground level, and even using for shooting videos. The tripod is sturdy, tight, but if is very windy it has a stand in the center to add some weight. The head have a plate with easy grip screw, is also very versatile and sturdy, making it easy to level the horizon of the camera without moving its paws, especially usefull in video shooting. Note the excellent rubber paws, non-slip and narrow to achieve stability even on dirt terrain.The set have a different short central axis that is easy to change in case you don't need to use the big one that comes assembled.When i need to put my video camera on tripod, as i use a different plate to use in a gimbal, i put a quick release plate as i show in the picture.Great value for money. An excellent tripod especially for travel but also for everyday use.

This tripod is a beast! Whilst it may not have the name "Manfrotto" or "3 Legged Thing" all over it, it is more than capable for it's price point!Having switched to this from a similarly priced Manfrotto, albeit a much smaller tripod I am initially surprised with the similarly in quality.Whilst the Manfrotto feels ever so slightly more refined, the K&F blows it out the park with height, versatility and ease of use!I always found the Manfrotto locking mechanisms very small, fidgety and likely to give me small blisters from repeated adjustment. Whereas the K&F model has comfortably sized levers/screws.The ability to dettach one leg and use it as a monopod is an excellent addition and the additional grip on this leg is nicely positioned and very comfortable.The ability to move the main central point to a over the top arm for top down/lay flat is amazing! This creates much more potential, and having all this in ONE tripod is a bonus.Overall this tripod feels very well built and feels like it will stand the test of time!There are only three cons I can find!- The included bag is not the greatest of materials and the added shoulder strap has plastic vs metal clips. However if your dedicated camera bag has space for a tripod this isn't an issue.- The twist locks on each leg are plastic, however they do feel very strong and not flimsy at all. Being used to aluminium locks on the Manfrotto tripod I noticed this immediately.- The springs that hold ratchet locks on each leg tight are a little flimsy, again being used to a different mechanism on the Manfrotto this bares no effect on quality and durability. If anything they are actually easier to release as the spring isn't extremely stiff!Who would I recommend this to?Anyone! This tripod is capable of meeting the needs of all photographers at all levels in my opinion! Whilst it may not be as rugged as some higher end brands, the fact remains that it is of very high quality and packed full of features. 10/10 for me.

It's not often I just receive a product and want to rush out and write a review but after playing with this tripod for just an hour here I am. While you can't really call this a cheap tripod as for as camera kit goes this is definitely a value for money item.From the carry bag to the two all metal 360 panoramic ballheads everything fells solid and well built. The horizontal arm adds tones of flexibility allowing you to switch from portraits, to low leave macros, to smooth panoramic shots and can even fill in for a rail slide in a pinch. It also has a standard threaded mount point under the rubber plug at the far end going options for further mounts.Switching from Tri to Mono pole is quick and easy but requires a double thread that could be easily lost. I will keep the tread attached and the hook in the bag as I'm more likely to mono pole on a regular bases than require the tripod to be weighted down.The legs extend and contract quickly enough and the angle locks feel solid. I'm only using mirrorless cameras and fairly light weight lenses but even with an external monitor and LED light also attached it was stable at full extension.While my kit is for family and fun use only I have two pre-teens who have become aspiring film makers of late and can be heavy handed at time as youngest tend to be. I'm pretty sure this tripod will stand up to everything we require of it and I will be sure to return and update if time and use begins to show short comings. But as it stands I'm very please with my purchase.

When the package arrived it was so small and light I thought I must’ve ordered the wrong item. Wouldn’t have been the first time. This tripod is excellent value – it is strong, lightweight, easy to manoeuvre and folds down to a very small size. And there is the added bonus of the instructions, which demonstrate a very creative use of the English language. However if you’re interested in this tripod you probably know how it works so you should be happy to regard the instructions as a comedy bonus.

I’ll start this review with a warning, my reviews are usually pretty long and detailed, but I like to write my reviews in a way that will help other buyers, particularly when buying from relatively unknown or overseas companies.This was my first purchase from this company and I must say that I am genuinely very impressed. It wasn’t strictly a ‘blind’ purchase because I had the good fortune of finding their company stand at this year’s (2019) Photography Show at the NEC in Birmingham, UK.Whilst there, I had the opportunity to handle and have a play with a few of their different tripods and lens filters. I then left without making a purchase whilst I mulled over what kit I’d like to upgrade.I am a keen amateur photographer and so I have a limited budget for my kit and have been ‘making do’ with a cheap tripod that I’ve had for years, and has been subject to far too many repairs over the years, so I decided that it was time for improvements!I ordered this tripod and it arrived within 2 days and it was really well packaged. Inside the box, I found that the tripod and accessories were contained in a sturdy, but conveniently sized, carry bag with handles. (See photos). The bag contained the tripod with a ball head in a very snazzy, velvety, protective draw string bag. There was also a shoulder strap for the carry bag and a small bag containing adaptors, instructions and an ‘Allen’ key to tighten the tripod legs if necessary.Upon lifting the tripod out of the bag, it immediately feels solid, robust and clearly great quality. In its fully folded position, the tripod is approximately 15” long and fits neatly in the carry bag without a struggle! To put the tripod straight to use, you simply pull all 3 legs downwards and the red aluminium locking clips, at the top of each leg, lock the legs in their first position, with the central column fully extended. A simple ¼ turn of the rubber coated central locking nut, by hand, allows the central column to drop into its most stable position.Each of the legs on the tripod have sections which can be quickly and easily extended, and locked into position, by means of a ¼ turn of the rubber coated locking nuts at the top of each section.The red aluminium locking clip, at the top of each leg, can then be used to change the splay of the legs to one of three set positions and beyond. To increase stability, when the legs are extended, the base of the central column has a spring loaded hook fitted that you can hang your camera bag or a weight from for more piece of mind if you need to leave the tripod unattended.I connected the shoe to the base of Nikon D300 (one of my heavier cameras) and the ball head had absolutely no problem supporting it.A couple of twists, by hand, of the various locking screws on the head and I was able to extend the central column before rotating it through 90 degrees (see photos). At this point, and purely for the purposes of this review, I left the centre column in its fully extended position with the camera still fitted to it. I was very pleasantly surprised to see that it easily supported the heavy DSLR in this, normally, very unstable position! (see photos).After returning the centre column back to a vertical position, you just need to unscrew, by hand, the base of the centre column to allow it to be replaced upside down so that your camera can be underslung on the tripod. This is absolutely ideal for macro and pet photography and adds further stability with the camera mounted to it.One of my favourite features of this tripod is the ability to quickly remove one of the legs so that it can be used as a monopod!! Anything that means that I can carry less kit with me is always a winner, in my view! To do this, simply unscrew the top of the leg, with the convenient rubber hand grip fitted to it, and attach the centre column or head to it using the provided screw adaptor. This is a quick and easy operation and just as quick and easy to reverse.All in all, I’m absolutely over the moon with this tripod. A lot of thought has clearly gone into its design and it is clearly built to last. Its outstanding quality, and very competitive price, means that this will be just one of many products that I’ll purchase from K&F Concept. I would most definitely recommend this product for photographers, videographers and vloggers alike.

This is a hell good quality piece of equipment. Even though I didnt quite figure out how to use it like "T" shape yet, it is even quite sturdy and useful for everyday use. Comes with carrying bag, quite small when folded and not very heavy. Arrived next day and made me so happy
