Fantastically stable, great twist locks on legs, love the tripod. Only one slight point I will make is the ball head does seem to come loose when rotating the 360 degree axis, I have sort of stopped this by making a thin rubber disc washer for the two parts to clamp on when tightened up. Would be nice if K&F supplied say a silicone washer for this purpose. But all in all it truly is a great stable piece of kit!
UPDATE: Had an issues with the ball head coming loose after rotating the ball head. Contacted K&F Concepts directly, I have to say what fantastic Customer Services, very responsive, very helpful. They sent me another tripod! Fantastic supplier of quality products and can highly recommend them!!

treppiedi straordinario, di qualità eccellente.Arriva a casa in una scatola piuttosto semplice e neanche particolarmente robusta.Diciamo che il primo impatto non è stato dei migliori.All'interno però ho trovato una custodia a valigetta di tutto rispetto, robusta, molto carina e comoda da trasportare.Ha infatti due pratici manici tenuti insieme con del velcro ma all'interno della custodia trovo anche una tracolla così da poter portare il treppiedi anche a spalla.Dentro la custodia ho trovato:-il treppiedi;-la tracolla;-3 chiavi esagonali;-2 piccoli manuali d'uso scritti però solo in inglese e cinese.Nonostante non sia presente la traduzione in italiano, le istruzioni sono comprensibili grazie alle numerose immagini che spiegano come usare il treppiedi ma in effetti è tutto molto intuitivo.La prima cosa che mi ha colpito di questo treppiedi è la qualità dei materiali, è robustissimo ma allo stesso tempo leggero e comodo da portare dietro.Soprattutto perchè da chiuso occupa davvero poco spazio, è lungo infatti appena 50 cm.Ma una volta aperto diventa enorme, si apre facilmente e la lunghezza è incredibile arriva a misurare ben 175 cm.Le gambe infatti possono essere allungata in 4 sezioni differenti in modo da regolare l'altezza in modo impeccabile e posizionare il treppiedi anche su terreni scoscesi senza problemi.Tra l'altro nella parte superiore ha anche una pratica livella o bolla che mi consente di posizionarlo perfettamente dritto.Le gambe si regolano facilmente, basta svitare appena la rotella in corrispondenza della sezione da regolare.I piedi sono completamente gommati e donano stabilità al treppiedi.Ma l'aspetto straordinario di questo treppiedi è che può essere smontato per creare un monopiede.Insomma è un prodotto fatto straordinariamente bene, decisamente indicato per uso professionale e parecchio comodo e versatile.Per cui lo consiglio senza ombra di dubbio, il rapporto qualità-prezzo è corretto.

Iam pleasantly surprised as a photographer for over 50 years this is a nicely made tripod. It’s light and well made. It took a few minutes to figure out the monopod because the instructions don’t explain how to detach the leg and head to create it. Once together it feels awesome and easy to use it’s nice that it all fits into the bag, the bag should have been made a bit larger the fit is very tight.

A solidly built tripod, that feels pro, and an intermediate price. Allows for lots of versatility and configuration too. All adjustability is solid, and the materials are quality. Stability is really nice on my Sony mirrorless camera,, with a pretty hefty lens. K&F makes some really nice camera gear!

Exactly what I wanted and needed. Well-made, strong and sturdy, it holds my D850 and heavy telephoto lens like a champ. I'm pretty certain it will take all the abuse that I normally give such equipment. Extremely happy with purchase!

If you’re looking to upgrade your current tripod or you’re beginning and you are looking to get yourself a good tripod to start off than this K&F tripod is absolutely worth being considered!There is so many ways to adjust it to your desired angle and the fact that you can unscrew it and use it a pole to capture some nice « drone » like videos is simply amazing.The overall built quality is over the top, there is no way this thing can break by itself of even with accidentals drops, and the coolest thing is that it’s made out of carbon fiber so it weighs barely nothing!10/10 i would recommend it.

The carbon fiber in this tripod does an amazing job at keeping the whole thing very light and portable. The rest of the hardware (locking cams to extend the legs, adjustable center post) are also high quality, durable, and rugged.The included ball head is just ok though - it's fine, but not excellent. I likely will swap it out for one of my higher-quality heads, but for testing this tripod the included ball head is fine. It does fit common lock plates, and I had no trouble fitting my mirrorless camera with an existing lock plate onto the ball head. The ball head itself has what feels like a plastic handle, and a plastic ball. Also, the top plate was not securely attached when the tripod arrived, and even though it came with an allen wrench to tighten things, I *really* had to crank down on the center bolt in the ball head top plate to get it secured. The whole design of the ball head is... mediocre.The center post also has a sturdy hook where you can hang a sand bag or your camera bag to add some extra stability for a shoot. The ability to convert 1 leg into a monopod is a great feature, and is one that I've used extensively on some of my other tripods, so I was very glad to see that included.This tripod is an excellent choice when traveling, or whenever you need to save weight but still need a good tripod for your camera.
