K&F Concept Camera Tripod Versatile Mini Flexible Phone Stand Phone Tripod Bluetooth Remote Control
SKU: KF09.129
I love, love, love, this little tripod! It has made Covid 19 more bearable with continuous zoom meetings and daily FaceTime. I originally bought this for my daughter to give her as a gift when she flew home over spring break - well that didn't happen - so I opened the box and decided to keep it for myself and get her another one. It is simply a charm - I LOVE it. My daughter just received the second one I ordered for her, my best friend ordered one, and now my supervisor and my mom will both order one. Customer Service has been the best, my little tripod had a minor issue with a part and K&F CONCEPT was very responsive to taking care of it for me. I haven't used the remote yet - too much time inside. I just want to say one more time, I love this tripod so much. I just ordered the K&F CONCEPT 51" tripod for a discourse my husband will deliver through conferencing, I hope it is just as awesome!

I got this for my niece for Christmas. Her selfie stick had broken and my sister suggested I get her a new one.I did. When I was looking at the different ones they had available, I saw this.So, I got it for her too. She wasn't too sure about it at first. However, within just a few moments of its opening, it got used. The remote needed to be charged but it didn't make any difference. We were immediately able to get a family picture - uncles, aunts, cousins... You could never do That with just a selfie stick. My nephew simply set it up on the corner of the couch and it worked perfectly.Because the legs are bendable, you can put it just about anywhere. Although it can stand up straight like a regular tripod, you can also put it on corners of furniture, wrap it around stair rails, or do just about anything with it.It's very easy to use. Even my 84 year old dad thought it was pretty easy and he has a hard time just using a cell phone. Plus, because it folds away, it doesn't take up a lot of space. That's a biggie for many people.

I needed a tripod so that I could use my phone to take pictures of some handbags I was selling. This works perfectly and it comes in handy for a number of different situations. I especially like the remote that is included, it makes it so much easier to take crystal clear close up pictures.The flexible legs make it possible to get any angle I need when I am using a photobox and it’s easy to shoot downwards without the legs getting in the way. This tripod is perfect for getting low angles or getting up close to an object. Its very versatile and the legs hold whatever shape you put them into.I have also used this to hold my phone when I was using it as a moniter with a wifi endoscope. I just wrapped the legs around a nearby pipe and then was able to see where I was going as I fed the endoscope down a drain. Very convenient.

This tripod is one of the better quality made products I've bought on K&F CONCEPT. The legs are the best thing about the tripod but the remote works well, as far as pairing and turning your camera on and off. As a tip: get a rubber band or etc and use it to keep the remote attached to the tripod while it's not in use. The tripod comes with a bag, but I felt safer finding a way to keep the remote attached, to prevent it from falling out of the bag. If the remote could operate the zoom feature of my phone's camera, that would be a huge plus. If the top of the tripod was motorized so that I could use the remote to pan from side to side, that'd be even better. It would no doubt add to the price but, for me, would be worth it. If you want to be able to film yourself for YouTube, such as in creating a cooking demo video, or if you'd like to sit with an older relative to interview them, that in particular is the most valuable thing and doesn't require either of those extra features. Certainly worth the price.

Bought this right before a family trip to the Grand Canyon. I wanted to just direct my own shots instead of asking others to take shots over and over again. This gives you a lot more freedom, especially if you know there will be trees or railings around where you are headed.This worked great! The legs are very bendy and very secure; I’ve hung it right side up and upside down on railings, trees, etc. Also just plain put it on benches and other flat surfaces. I set my phone to a timer (3 seconds for shorter or 10 seconds for longer setups) and take the shot! Family photos have never been easier. You can do posed or even ‘candid’ (see picture I took while strapping this to a tree)! At the edge of the Grand Canyon, I even secured it to a railing to film a sunrise one morning and the video came out great. After my trip, I’ve even used this to take an unboxing video and it worked great. It’s essentially just a mini tripod for your phone for any sort of video or photos you might like to take. The ballhead also helps a lot with picture variety as well. You can bend it down pretty far except where the thumbscrew is.If you use the included Bluetooth clicker, you can also just line up your shot first and then click whenever and however many times you’d like. Clicker works well but it disconnects more often than I’d like it to and the reconnection process, while not hard, is definitely not fun to do over and over again.You definitely do not need an expensive mobile tripod option. This is it and works great, even if the Bluetooth clicker is a little finicky. Still well worth the price, especially since timers on phones is a thing!

I purchased the K&F CONCEPT Tripod S to take close-ups and macro shots of objects such as seashells, leaves, and whatever else would look good through my Apple iPhoneSE camera. The instructions to set up the remote and tripod were simple, clear, and precise. The tripod had easy-to-follow photo instructions/procedures to set it up. I found the tripod's legs flexible while at the same time sturdy. It does take a little practice to bend-and-twist the legs, to balance them (so the attached phone doesn't tip over), and get an optimal shot. Once you do that, you're a "click-away," until you hit the remote button for your image. The images you see are the result of original close-up photography experimentation (all have been digitally enhanced). My next attempt with the Ubseesize Tripod S would be attaching a macro and telephoto lens to the iPhone camera and see how they do. It's also important to note that the K&F CONCEPT sellers have been extremely helpful and considerate throughout my learning process. Accordingly, they have worked hard and long hours to perfect their product. My only concern is that the on/off switch to the remote, instead of being black (as the entire remote is), should have a different color to make it easily visible to users, which would remind them to shut it off when not in use.

As of writing this review, this tripod has held up PERFECTLY. I use this in combination with a ulanzi st-03 phone tripod mount and the Movo VXR10 microphone. It works beautifully!The tripod it a solid, foam covered steel design which is comfortable to hold but also does an excellent job of flexing how you want it and STAYS that way.The only drawback I can find it the tripod mount itself. The screw on the tripod can be disconnected from the rest of the body to quickly mobilize whatever is mounted; however because of the quick-release mechanism, it wobbles while mounted to the rest of the tripod body. It has occasionally come half way off the tripod when I’ve accidentally bumped one of the release buttons. Not damage to anything so far, but it could pose an issue.The remote shutter is a nice addition that works with my iPhone 6 Plus. I’ve used it to remotely start/stop video clips and to take group pictures.Overall, great product especially if planned to be used for vlogging (alternate to Joby gorilla pod) or just to take on adventures.I recommend.

TLDR: Buy this for your vacations, you'll love it.One problem is always asking for people to take your photo when on vacation. This bluetooth conroller and tripod eliminate that issue. After you connect your phone to the bluetooth controller and mount it where ever you need it just open the camera app and click away. Everytime you click the button a photo is taken. I tested to see how fast the camera responds to the click and it is almost immediately. Rapid succession photo work flawlessly. And if your camera is set to video it will start and stop the video whenever you click the button. I tested it with android and iphone and work on both.The tripod is sturdy and easy to get into the position you want. also comes with a go pro mount which is very cool. The camera holder has small foam that protects your phone from scratches when squeezed in place. I also have a google pixel 2 that when squeezed will trigger google assistant, this was my biggest worry. I don't have to worry anymore, the holder squeezes the phone enough to keep it in place even when walking around with it in the holder but sensitive enough not to set off the google assistant squeeze on my phone.

For the price, you can't get a better tripod. Great design and made with sturdy materials.You receive the tripod, remote shutter button, cell phone holder, go pro attachment, and a nice velvet carry bag.This is my 2nd product with this company, and I couldn't be happier. The tripod is compact, plus light weight for easy travel and on the go use. The adjustable wire legs are sturdy and covered with a nice foam rubber for grip. The plastic parts are solid, and with anything made from plastic, of course some discretion is needed to prevent breaks.I basically carry this with me everywhere. With adjustments, the tripod legs are strong enough to hold the weight of my DSLR. As a amateur photographer, it beats carrying my bulky and heavy tripod any day. The phone adapter has good resistance to hold phones in place, and the tripod can adjust to portrait or landscape for pics. Love that the remote shutter button connects with ease on my Samsung and I use it constantly day/night to reduce photo shake. Perfect for taking solo/selfie pics with the better rear camera on the phone.For an added bonus, I use it as a stand to watch programs on my phone via my desk, attached to my bed frame, things outdoors, and etc. I also use this for my portable speakers too, so get creative. Multiple uses and money well spent! Highly recommended!

UPDATED: Earlier Review: "Right out of the box to test use with my Android and Camera. The Android is a Galaxy J7 Crown and on that phone I had put an outer casing to protect it (since the phone on its own is very thin). The Clamp for use with a phone was able to fit snugly over both, but it was very tight. I've since been contacted K&F CONCEPT , voluntarily without my having contacted them, that they can provide a large clamp for the phone due to the phone casing. . Then tried seeing how it would work with a Canon T3i DLSR camera . As can be seen in the images , success! The portion that attaches to the bottom of camera has a nice little 'knob' for screwing in quite tightly (as does the mount for screwing the camera on). These little knobs could be easily missed. In other words, all fit on 'Tight' in all ways and the legs are very flexible. Will be interested to see all this will come down out in the field, but inside, for common use so far, great. Only thing, I'm afraid I could lose the removable part (detachable base), as it is very small (Make a mental note)." UPDATE: A new , larger mount is available that swivels from 'Landscape' to "Portrait' position without having to remove the camera mount, as it previously was. Would highly recommend this 'improved mount' , also pictured.
