This tripod stabilises the camera or camcorder, giving you clear photos and videos.The K&F Concept Tripod is made of aluminium and features a 360-degree fluid head with a quick-release plate for stability and smooth pans and tilts. Its height is adjustable from 84cm to 184 cm and is locked in place with flip locks. It also has a maximum load capacity of 17.6lb, making it suitable for most DSLRs and camcorders.Furthermore, the tripod comes with a carry bag and is simple to set up and disassemble. However, the tripod's other components, such as the leg clamps, hinges, and other smaller parts, are made of plastic, reducing its durability. The tripod also lacks bubble levels to ensure that it is properly set up when taking photos or videos.Overall, this tripod has a decent build and works as it should. While it has some flaws, it is still a good tripod that is compatible with a variety of DSLR cameras, camcorders, gimbals, video rigs, and so on.

This tripod is TALL! 75" puts the bottom of your camera above your head, so you may need a remote monitor (or step stool) to make use of it at the full height. Even folded the entire package is close to 40" long. Each leg has two extensions, and with only one extended the tripod is of a "normal" height. I personally don't anticipate using the 2nd set of leg extensions too frequently, but in certain situations it would be useful to have the extra height.With the size and generous 22lb / 10kg load capacity, comes weight. The total package with padded carrying case is around 13 lbs, and the tripod alone is at least 11. The weight is not excessive for the size, but this is not a small and lightweight travel tripod. One feature I like is that the leveling ball mount has a large vertical handle. You can twist it to loosen the ball for leveling purposes, but it also makes a very easy handle to lift and carry the tripod with camera attached.The fluid head allows you to mount the extending handle for either left or right handed use. Both the pan and tilt axis can lock, and have an adjustable amount of friction. I tried it out with an extreme zoom lens and was able to pan/tilt the lens smoothly and was perfectly happy with the smoothness of the head. It has a QR plate that comes with both 1/4 and 3/8" mounting studs, tightened up with an always available Allan wrench that magnetically mounts inside the top of the fluid head. You can also switch over to accepting DJI RS2/RS3 and Manfrotto fast plates.The fluid head can be removed from the ball leveler (3/8" threaded stud) if you wish to use the tripod alone (or the Fluid head on a different tripod).The price feels right for what you get. It's not carbon fiber, but that is about the only improvement I could see making to the tripod. The aluminum tubes are sturdy and solid, so replacing them with carbon fiber tubes may not improve performance much (and cutting down on the weight may also reduce the stability).

I don't know where to start to sing the praises of this tripod. First of all, this is not a travel tripod, it is heavy, well built and quite large. I'm new to photography and videography, and my niche is wildlife with a large lens. I have another fluid-head tripod from a different popular brand, but I have to say this K&F is leaps and bounds ahead of it. Here are some bullet points:- It is heavy and incredibly well-built. Wind doesn't affect this bad boy.- Travel bag is perfect and makes it easy to transport.- Fluid head is unlike anything I'm used to. It is amazingly smooth, easy to manipulate, and makes video smooth even at 400+MM.I absolutely love this tripod. It is the definition of well-built, but don't expect to take this bad boy on backcountry hikes.

The heavy-duty fluid head tripod is an outstanding addition to my videography gear. This tripod is built like a tank, with robust construction that provides exceptional stability, even with my heaviest camera setup (20+ lbs). The fluid head offers incredibly smooth panning and tilting, making it perfect for both photography and videography. Adjustments are precise and easy to make, thanks to the intuitive controls. The tripod legs are sturdy and adjustable to various heights, ensuring I can get the perfect angle for any shot. Whether I'm working in the studio or out in the field, this tripod has become an indispensable tool. Highly recommended for any serious photographer or videographer looking for a reliable and versatile tripod!

This is a tripod geared primarily for video production. The dampening knobs turn smoothly and the fluid head is also very smooth and compatible with Manfrotto plates. The fluid head is on a standard 75mm bowl base that is compatible with other brands of 75mm half balls, if you wish you could remove the fluid head and replace it with a standard ballhead or gearhhead. I feel the stance of this tripod is a bit too narrow, wish that the leg spreader can be adjusted to allow for a wider, more stable stance. Other than that, this is a very nice video tripod for a reasonable cost.

The stand is really great. It is very stable and the head can be moved very smoothly — nothing sticks or jerks. Only the bag is made of a somewhat peculiar and not very confidence-inspiring material. I had it next to a Manfrotto and found out that both were of equal value. The Manfrotto has foldable rubber feet, but cost €470, — more. I can fully recommend the stand.

RECOMMEND !

This tripod is a nice step up from the stick-leg style that I have been using. It adds quite a bit more stability and features for not that much more money. It's not as good as the higher end pro models, but I feel they made some decent compromises to keep the cost down while still maintaining features. The main parts of the tripod like the legs, cross support, and head are metal, but the leg clamps, hinges, and some other smaller parts are plastic. This affects durability, so you are going to have to take care of it if you want it to last. To that end, this tripod includes a really nice padded soft case for storing it in. The case even has a small interior pocket for storing accessories like the included shoulder strap and hex wrenches.The fluid head movement is smooth for both tilt and rotation, and the handle is pretty easy to position where you want it. I like the bowl set for leveling out the head, though it could be a little smoother when moving it. I think the rough textured paint finish might be causing the roughness. The tripod legs have rubber feet snapped on to ball ends that are fixed in place. I don't think they can be removed for adding on spike feet for outdoor use.The QR plate is similar in size to some other tripod and stabalizer plates I have (larger than Arca-style), and have a safety lock to prevent your camera falling to the ground when you loosen the QR clamp. The plate doesn't slide very smoothly in the clamp, again probably due to the textured painted finish. I own some other K&F Concepts products and they seem to do pretty well with picking decent quality products to put their brand name on. Overall, I'm pretty happy with this tripod.

was pleasantly surprised with how sturdy this tripod is and its a good size one as well. All my others are smaller, more for compactness and travel, but I do have any older one that is similar to this one. This is built really tough and a decent weight and height. I really like the quality and the fluid head which was the whole reason I got this. I haven't used this in the field yet but setting it up at home and checking out did impress me so I see no issues with using this.

Great value for money There is no tripod at this price that has horizontal friction adjustment, not even other more expensive ones for video and small cameras it works very well, I have a video production company for more than 30 years
