I bought this K&F Concept carbon fiber tripod for my new Sony A7III. It's really light and portable. This tripod meets my needs perfectly. The legs are also very easy to adjust with a quick twist and I like the ball head which is really solidly made and easy to adjust my camera. I can really recommend the well made and high quality tripod.

I don't like to take my big gear with me when I travel and I get nice photo performance out of my GX7. And with this tripod I can now travel super light. Hiking these 14s with less than 3 pounds of photo gear will be AMAZING! I could probably use my Sony Alpha 6300 with a zoom lens instead if I needed some reach.

This tripod is everything you want. Sturdy carbon fiber twistlock legs. Fits in my pocket when I want. A hook for a weight bag. The head feels a little tight, not so smooth, maybe it has to break in.

I bought the carbon tripod because I finally wanted a ball head :-). The tripod is incredibly light and remains very stable. The screw caps can be easily opened and then securely fastened again. The camera sits perfectly on the ball joint and is then super adjustable. The fixing screws are easy to move and yet very easy to fix.
When the camera is attached to the ball head mount with the plate, the spirit level is on the side of the screen, where it suits me. BUT the wheel to fix the plate is then on the side of the lens. With my Sigma, however, the rotary knob is almost on the lens. There are only tenths to hundredths between the rotary knob and the lens.
Otherwise the tripod is a recommendation:
- Weight
- stability
- size
- flexibility
- rapid deployment

perfect for a quick expedition to the beach and you do not need much weight, but you will carry a camera with a lens

A very nice tripod that I am now using with my Z5 camera. For the price it really can't be beat. If you want a better tripod that is lighter weight you will need to part with a lot more money than what this cost! I was a little skeptical but now that I have used it, winner winner.

I declare that I was initially very skeptical about the characteristics of this object, but as soon as I was able to collect it, I immediately realized that it was a quality product.
Let's start with the weight, a feature that many underestimate but that offers great stability, just like in this case. 1.5 kg of aluminum which will help you shoot much sharper.
Absolutely practical to transport thanks to the bag in which it is contained and especially thanks to its small size: 40 cm when closed which allowed me to store it safely in hand luggage.
At its maximum extension it measures 150cm and thanks to the excellent leg locking systems it will be extremely stable.
The ball joint is very smooth and the camera can be rotated very easily.
The well-designed screw mount, structured to firmly hold the camera on the tripod.
Ability to take wonderful panoramic photos thanks to a small wheel which, if unscrewed, allows you to slowly and absolutely steadily rotate the camera.
A small highlight of this tripod is the possibility, thanks to an supplied Allen key, to unscrew a tripod leg to use it as a monopod.
I strongly recommend buying this product which has only points in favor, after 2 months of use I have not yet found any fault and I am really satisfied!

Hiking these 14s with less than 3 pounds of photo gear will be AMAZING! I could probably use my Sony Alpha 6300 with a zoom lens instead if I need some range.
I would not recommend large DSLRs for this tripod. Stick with mirrorless or point and shoot.

BUT the adjustment knob The lens is on the side to attach the plate. But on my Sigma, the rotary knob is almost on the lens. There are only 10ths to 100ths between the rotary knob and the lens. Otherwise, the tripod is a recommendation:
-

- size

Replacing my 20 year old tripod with this 255c2; compacts really nicely and is a bit bigger than my old one! Time will tell how it holds up!
