Short of buying into ultra professional equipment, which is a little like overkill, this unit does everything tripod related, and if you buy the complete version, accessories include a small spirit level, so no more wonky horizons or unwanted converging verticals. Might as well get the best shots you can to start with rather than missing around with un-square images in photo software after. Mostly aluminium except for some plastic release catches and rubber feet, so won't get loose and rickety too quickly, like those cheap generic badged tripods. Also comes in a cute carry bag, with adjustable straps. Couldn't fault any of it.

I wanted a good quality tripod for long exposure photography and I’m very pleased with this one. I’ve had it stood on the shore whilst the tide came in and the water didn’t shake it, and the photos turned out lovely. I’ve been using it for product photography too and I’m able to get a nice angle.
It’s quick and easy to set up and pack away too

I needed a cheap, light(ish) tripod for a sudden trip as there was a fair amount of walking involved and this seemed to fit the bill nicely.
The head is smooth to pan, easy to adjust and locks tightly with no issues. The plate mount is arca-Swiss compatible so had no issues swapping plates on all my gear which was a bonus.
The legs are quick to deploy and lock up very securely. They’re relatively sturdy for the small cross section.
Some reviews mention that the tripod isn’t very stable and with the centre tube fully extended with a heavy lens/camera I can confirm that there is a definite (although relatively small) amount of wobble. However with smaller MFT gear I had little issues, especially when the tube is dropped lower. Using a guy rope and pegging the tripod down via the sprung hook kept the tripod rock steady in high wind on the side of a very exposed mountain slope.
I’ve not had time to use the tripod for an extended period so I can’t attest to its long term durability but I’m fairly confident it’ll stand up to some reasonable abuse, no doubt time will tell.
Is it as good as my Manfrotto? Of course not, but it’s less than 1/5th the price and 1/3rd of the weight, I’d buy another again should this one ever get stolen.

I had to upgrade tripod because of heavy lens just purchased tamron 150 600 and I'm impressed. Its plenty tall and the ball head is nice.had a worry from other reviews that it's hard to tighten to stabilize the weight but I have no issues at all.for the price it works well and no issues at all. I've had it for a few weeks now and was disappointed how the legs would slide on hard surfaces, after trying to remove the metal points on leg bottoms I discovered turning the rubber feet all the way out will conceal the metal points.if outdoors in grass or dirt just screw the rubber back out to expose the points ,now I'm happy again.

K&F Concept Camera Tripod K234A7 + BH-28L + Extension Arm Kits I uploaded only 1 of the 2 videos and I preferred the second where I explain how and where to insert the various pieces since the manufacturer attaches a lean manual as shown in the photo. assemble the parts by looking at the various presentation photos, it would be 4 stars for this particular but the tripod is worth the 5 stars. The short rod supplied is 30 cm long while the closed stand reaches 50 cm. How I use the tripod is very simple to use and other measures and opinions on how well it works can be found in the various reviews, I just say that I use it with Tamron 150/600 G2 on Nikon D7200 and Celestron Ultima 80 spotting scope both on head ball supplied and on Gimbal to replace it but only on smooth tripod without the extension rod that I have not tried. Relatively light weight excellent transport bag with reflective insert and shoulder strap with padded shoulder strap. Head equipped with attachment for anything and is of the Arca-Swiss compatible type.

Worked great for about 10 months, just short of its warranty period, then the rubber feet started falling off easily and won't stay on, and now as a result this s210 feet won't grip flat and concrete surfaces which is where I mostly use it in so now its not as study and stable anymore, especially during long exposure photography. Also some of the knobs on the ball head seem to be starting to wear out and not tightening as much as it used to, but the main problem is the rubber feetI can't find any replacements rubber feet because they seem to be proprietary and K&F don't sell them separately. I tried reaching out to them on their website but they take forever to respond with their almost non existing customer service and when they did they also gave me no solution and haven't answered me back since.Update:K&F Concept reached out to me shortly after my review and resolved my issue, my s210 is now working flawlessly again. For this I will give them 5 stars

Lightweight and steady. Great little tripod with lots of features. For it’s price, it’s worth it.

At $80, this is a solid tripod. Comes with a travel bag and allen keys to attach baseplate. An added bonus that it can also be used as a monopod although I will rarely use it for that. Legs are sturdy, easy to adjust, ballhead is solid and smooth, and baseplate seems strong and simple to attach onto camera. The bottom of the legs have rubber caps that can be removed to expose the metal feel. Im mainly using the tripod for long exposure shots, which it does well. The base has a hook to attach a bag for added stability. Overall, this is a great tripod for the money. I’ve had similar tripods in the past that were priced well above this one but this definitely it a good choice if you dont want to overspend.
