SKU: KF09.103
replacing my 20 year old tripod with this 255c2; it compacts really well and is a little taller than my old one! Time will tell how it holds up!

I like the fact that this tripod is lightweight, and the carbon fiber makes it a durable tripod for travel. I had some difficulty with one of the legs not extending properly. However, I think it was simply stuck temporarily because it was new. Legs extend and descend flawlessly now. I have not played with this enough to really familiarize myself with all of the features, but the couple of times I have used it on a trip, it works fine. I need to practice with the ball head so that my camera does not flop to and fro. The tightening device to secure the camera is a screw handle and I'm not very comfortable with the security that provides. I wish it had a better release, more of a quick release that is more secure in holding and releasing the camera, on the foot plate that goes from camera to the ball head mount. Otherwise, I find this to be a very useful and sufficient tripod for throwing in the suitcase on a trip.

Great travel tripod easy to use lightweight and made with quality materials, you sacrifice sturdiness for lightweight but the hook underneth is strong enough to hang your backpack to add stability.
comes with carry case to protect during transport

Very nice super light carbon tripod for a great price. Everything works as it should and is a bargain at $150. Just don’t expect it to be super secure in high wind. The additional Arca cell phone clamp has saved the day a couple times. I’m super happy with my purchase.

I bought this tripod to take photos of wildlife on the lookout. Very light, sturdy and easy to use. It is a good product.

Carbon fiber tripods let you focus on your work and the ART of your photos Super strong, lightweight construction Telescoping poles adjust to any height I like having super tall tripods so I don't have to worry about height! The case is SUPER thick and hit the tripod perfectly. Really impressed with the durable nylon, zipper and thick carrying handle.

This tripod amazes me on how well it works and the quality of how it's made. first it is made of carbon fiber which makes it really lightweight. The carbon fiber also makes it stronger than my other one, the leg shape is round and if you know round tubes they are strong.

Great carbon fiber tripod, holds the weight well, I have about 10 test pounds on it to test. I don't have a camera yet, so I haven't been able to test with the camera and move it around to take pictures, but I've put a 10lb test bag on it and it holds it well, even at full extension. I like the fact that it has a bag and is easy to fold up and put in the bag for on the go. The bag is soft padded to protect the tripod a bit too. The strap doesn't have anything to make it comfortable to carry so I'm glad I'm not carrying it anywhere anytime soon, but luckily it's light so maybe that's why the carrying strap isn't padded. Maybe with the bag, I'm more satisfied with the price of this one since most tripods I've won or seen don't come with a bag.

I bought the carbon tripod because I finally wanted a spherical head :-). The tripod is incredibly light and yet very stable. Screw caps are easy to open and tighten again. The camera looks great on the spherical head and is super adjustable. The fixing screws slide smoothly and yet they are very easy to fix.
