What a great product as always from K&F, quality, Elegant and stable. Worth every penny I might get another one later

I'm still trying to figure it out,but after I do I know it going Tobe great!

perfect tripod for video recordings.

Given this is a Chinese brand I expected lower quality, but the tripod is super stable and I trust my $10k rig to rest on it during sports shoots. Very stable. The weight is like any other large frame tripod, don't expect to travel with it. Fully deployed it reaches beyond my 6' self, reaching a useful height. I enjoy the confidence inspiring stability. The arm clamps are easy to use which allows me to quickly deploy the tripod.

I am really doing the review of a tripod that for me is too big because although I am a great fan of photography I have never had a team as professional as this. The first thing that impresses is the quality of its materials and its size and when you start tinkering with it it's absolutely amazing how configurable it is. You can put anything up to eight kilos on top of it and have it fixed in the way you prefer without a single millimeter of distortion. Both the turning and locking systems are really spectacularly simple and above all effective. Personally it will be my main ally this summer in my attempts to learn how to do astrophotography.

Works as it should, sturdy and well made, it extends to an astonishing height if needed, very solid.

Altogether, I am very pleased with this tripod. It’s very well-built and is extremely lightweight. Comes complete with a nice caring case. This unit is very versatile with its adjustable height settings. Manufacturing on this unit is very clean and well done. Absolutely worth the price point and it should be stable for many years to come. I would recommend!

Most the time like the old Saying goes, you get what you pay for, but with this tripod, I am pleasantly surprised of the quality of it for the price. Has features that usually come with more expensive tripods. A feature that is important to me is being able to dampen the movements on both the pan and tilt axis, which allows smooth camera movements, regardless of the weight of the camera set up. I’m happily to report this tripod has both. It also has the drop-in feature for the quick release plate. Unlike many cheaper tripods where you have to slide the quick release plate in from the back of the tripod, this tripod allows you to simply slide one edge of the plate in from the top and then drop the other edge in and lock into place. This is great for quick attaching and detaching your camera setup and much easier to attach heavier setups too. As far as weight goes, This is most definitely not a travel tripod, but if you’re doing on location work with a larger camera set up or studio work, this is a solid tripod for you. It has really good height with the two stage tripod legs with quick release levers on them which comes in really handy for event work. Also, the tripod allows you to attach your camera to the tripod head with a Ronin RS two or three baseplate on it without having to get an adapter or switch out plates for manfrotto plate. Great for work event when your need to go from a tripod to gimbal set up and back frequently . Overall, this is a great entry level tripod for the price!

The product looks good, excellent performance, but the tripod has only one screw fixing the camera on the release plate which - for the camera that I have - is too big. How do I get the right screw, the 3/8" screw?

lovely tripod with many features , it can be a little complicated setting up with the vast amount of clips and screws. However once setup its a nice stable tripod with the leveler gauge at the top. Unfortunately it is in a little bit of a awkward place. However that's me been picky.It's lightweight as it's made from aluminium and is neatly stored with a nice bag that can be easy be transported with the shoulder strap incuded.The 360 degree fluid Head with its quick release plate works really well and helps stabilise the camera in its plate. The height is good with a adjustable length from 84cm to a massive 1.84m which is great for getting over large crowds . The weight allowance of 17.6 lbs is suitable for most dslrs camera and slt mirror less cameras; Including camcorders.Overall a good design tripod for starglazing, wedding photos and videos . Virtually can be used anywhere as the foot print is pretty small.
