A 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.

I own two other K&F tripods and this is a solid choice. However, as a right handed person, the adjustment knob to loosen the tilt is on the right side (where I typically hold the handle to the tripod). The other tripods I have all have the knob on the left side, allowing me to control the pan and tilt of the camera as I adjust the tension of the tilt. This one has a fancy adjustment that adjusts the resistance of the tilt itself, but in practical usage, this should be on the right side inside of the typical left. If you're left handed, perhaps, this works for you, but I found it a bit finicky.The build quality is solid and comparable to some of the high end tripods out there. I do notice that sometimes the legs feel a bit wobbly and it's easy to tilt at its lowest height. It definitely can handle a decently sized rig on top (mine weight around 10-15 lbs, but i wouldn't go any more than that.Overall, it's a decently well built tripod for the price. Would recommend.

Excellent tripod for camera. It is intended for professional work, although it can be used by anyone, obviously. It is quite robust. Built with excellent materials and has very good finishes. It has a maximum load support of 8kg and has a damping system for the camera. The product description indicates that it weighs less than 4kg, but personally I think it weighs more. I have not weighed it, but when I picked it up it seemed to me that it weighs much more than what is indicated. The height is adjustable, reaching up to 184 cm. It has a high price, but it is a quality product and for professional use In the end it ends up paying off. I liked it in every way. By the way, it includes a cover to store it when you're not using it and it's very easy to unfold and fold.

There's some plastic involved in the construction of this which worries me slightly in terms of overall strength and therefore longevity. However it does feel stable when it's put up so as long as you're careful with it it should be fine.It's not something I'd want to carry around with me, but it would be ideal for something like a wedding videographer who needs a good stable base that can be moved around the venue with relative ease.Setting up and adjusting the height is easy. Getting it level is a bit tricker since the bubble level is obscured by the top plate (and possibly the camera if one is installed on it). The actual adjustment is easy though so maybe adding another small bubble level on top of the camera or somewhere else convenient would solve that issue.The fluid head is very smooth and feels great to use. You could easily get some nice smooth panning shots with no jitteriness. I like that the handle can be fitted to either side of the head so it can be set up for both right and left handers.The carrying bag is nicely made from decent fabric and has a bit of padding.I wouldn't feel out of place using this in a professional capacity.

One of my hobbies is photography and I am getting more and more invested as time goes along. Recently during the solar eclipse, I came to the realization that I need a more industrial type of tripod. I got this and, in the time, I have had it, it has been amazing. While it has some weight to it, its not as heavy though probably it’s because I have gotten used to it. The tripod comes in some incredible packaging. The top and the bottom of the tripod has a great bubble wrap that is fantastic about protecting the tripod from damage. The bag that is given is of very good quality. In the bag itself, there is a pocket inside that has the handle that allows for adjustment of the tripod head. It is easy to screw in. In addition, an instruction manual is given plus a set of 3 Allen keys which allow for more adjustments. The tripod has been amazing. Making little adjustments are super smooth for video and photography. In terms of using the height extenders, it goes over my head when extended to the max, making it great for elevated photography. The base is incredibly steady and there is little concern on uneven surfaces. Lastly this works very well with my tripod head that I got, and the stability is excellent. So, adding attachments are easy and fantastic as well. For the price of $190.00 this is an amazing tripod for photography, great for professionals or hobbyists. I absolutely recommend this to all.

At first glance you can see that this tripod is robust and well designed. It can support up to 8 kg of weight and its oval aluminum construction are characteristics that guarantee that it is resistant and that it will last a long time. The ball joint is very good since it has a good quality cushioning and leveling system that allows more movements fluids. Another positive point is the height that it reaches since it goes from 84cm to 184cm. This means that we can adapt to any recording. Also, the fact that it folds down to a length of 88cm and comes with a carry bag makes storage and transportation easier. The only downside I could make is that it's a bit heavy but of course, it's normal for it has more stability. Another thing that has not completely convinced me is the high price it has, but in the audiovisual world almost all prices are high. If it were a little cheaper it would get 5 stars without a doubt.

This is really sturdy but it could have been much better if the connection pieces were made from alloy rather than plastic, I don’t know how long it will last in the field, it certainly looks and feels robust enough and the action is very smooth with a good quality mounting piece for the camera itself, it’s good to use although it’s a bit heavy to be lugging it around all day but the carry case has a shoulder strap that helps with that, all in all what you get for the money is I think very good value and would definitely recommend it for anyone

My old brand name tripod finally died. The swivel head just snapped off. This new tripod has more adjustment and height range and is simply made better. I do photography for my on line business and together with my lighting equipment I am getting great shots that need little adjustment.The tripod is easy to collapse into the carry case.A professional piece of equipment that will serve me for stills and video.

K&F rarely disappoints me, and this is no exception. This is a professional-quality video tripod and head. The fluidity is great, and it's easy to balance. This thing goes high in the air and is very, very sturdy. I couldn't be happier.
