Camera Tripod 78"/200cm, K&F Concept DSLR Tripods Overhead Aluminum Lightweight Tripod Monopod with Extension Arm Ball Head, Loading Up to 22lbs/10kg

Only received this today so haven't been in the field with it yet but gave it a thorough examination indoors with my heavy pro type equipment.
Appearance is very good and quality seems high at this price point. The ball head has a very fluid smooth movement and panning is very nicely dampened. When all tightened up in position it seems very sturdy with no hint of a wobble.
Many adjustments to suit all shooting situations and light enough to carry up to my local mountains for some landscape shots ! A fraction of the price of some branded models but not far behind in quality at all.
So far so good !

The past few years I have had the fortunate opportunity to be able to try out many different types of camera equipment. I find that there are three big categories: heavy-duty, standard use, and travel. This tripod from K&F Concept is definitely designed to be in that third group. I have a couple of travel tripods that do a fantastic job of holding my full-frame Canon 5D Mark IV with a 70-200mm lens attached. I said that to mention that sometimes the smaller, lighter-weight tripods get the job done so you don’t have to haul around the heavier standard size mounts. K&F Concept did a nice job with the design of this tripod. It’s very lightweight at only 3.17 pounds, which is comparable to my travel-sized Manfrotto tripod. This tripod has an impressive total height to it of 78 inches, which should be enough for any photograph you need to capture. I am shooting a wedding in a couple of weeks and I have the idea of shooting above the audience from the back of the venue. At 78 inches, this tripod provides the necessary height to be able to achieve that ‘over-head’ shot I’m looking for. The ball head moves easily enough, but the numbers on the bottom dial are faded and printed in a very light color. It’s hard to read -- even in studio lighting. I personally think that those numbers should be printed in a brighter, more vibrant color -- maybe even neon. The legs extend easily, but the quick-release flip-locks have very sharp edges. I went to unlock one of the legs and the edge of the lock clipped my finger and I started bleeding. I was surprised to find such a sharp edge on a finished product like this. Another issue I found was with the center column. It seemed as though no matter how much I tightened it, I could still push the column down. I was only pushing down with as much force as a camera load would provide. I really like that the feet had spikes on them. This provides a lot of added traction especially out in nature. It’s not something you see on every tripod and it was a welcome surprise with this design. All in all, the K&F Concept 78-inch Camera Tripod is a decent, sturdy tripod for beginners. I think that professional-level photographers might find the same flaws with it that I did. I do think that any level of photographer can get use out of this -- especially in places where it might get destroyed. In other words, it’s a good backup tripod.

This tripod is so easy to use, and feels very professional.

ordered the blk and red but received the orange one in the mail. That’s my only complaint. Super sturdy high quality tripod. Easy to pack (5 stars if my correct color was sent to me, attention to detail)

This tripod is easy to use. It's quick to fold up and fold out. One of the legs come off so you can use it as a handheld monopod. I use this everywhere I go. My favorite tripod.

Bought this to fix on top of my table tripod. Adds an extra foot or so of height. Just what I wanted. Very pleased.

For the price, you really can’t beat what you get. Study, lightweight, and high flexibility in shots thanks to the ball mount. All the fasteners are nice and rigid, no slop and no wiggle when everything is locked down. When it’s folded it can fit in your backpack no problem. Overall really love this tripod!

will recommend this product with my eye closed, one of the best things i bought

recently took a trip to Tulum and used it everywhere we traveled. It was able to fit alongside my carryon and was super lightweight. Definitely recommend.

am 5’8 and with shoes I am taller and this is the best tripod ever for your money, stable, inexpensive, tall for tall ppl and even short and /or able to move to a lower position for product photoshoot a or videography shoots. Strong, don’t blow in wind and nice color and came in great condition, had it over 3 months now, great for cameras and iPhones ( I got a phone mount from best buy by joby )
