K&F Concept 75" Tripod with Horizontal Arm for Overhead & Macro Photography, 360° Ball Head, Monopod Function, Supports DSLR Cameras Up to 10kg

I bought this tripod not expecting too much considering the price, but I was pleasantly surprised. It is sturdy, extends to many great usable heights and fits in a carry bag that comes with it.Id recommend it to anyone who wants a tripod for use around the home and the price is pretty hard to beat.

The tripod seems very stable so far and is made of high-quality materials. The minimum height is a bit too high for me if you move your arm sideways (horizontally). A little heavy but definitely lighter - great value for money

It is not easy to have tripods mount a camera to their base and face downwards and the camera positioning becomes really hard so i got this as an addition to my unboxing and review kit . Its super small when it is in collapsed and easy to move around. Not the heaviest item either but not the lightest one either. The ball head alone is pretty cool and so are the rotating collapsible legs. Really recommend this item for a unboxing setup for youtube. The tripod only works at straight up or perpendicular setting no other diagonal positioning is supported by the joint.

Overall this tripod a phenomenal value, it rivals some double in price. It is sturdy, lightweight, and have a nice tight locking frame. Despite this, the instructions can be somewhat confusing at times and it is hard to get the full potential of the tripod as it has many configurations -- the configurations are amazing on this tripod and suitable for literally ANY situation. Some corners are cut in the feel of the plastic of the ballhead, but that is expected given the price point and it remains very smooth while operating. All things considered, I wouldn't hesitate with purchasing as at this price, it's top notch!

In the past few months, I have purchased several tripods at various different price points and targeted use case to find out the relative benefit to the buyer when going up in price and whether they should go with either budget options or with top of the line prosumer offerings intended for professionals.

i think this Kent Faith Concept tripod is really something, this tripod packs a c*ap ton of features some could either describe as gimmicks or truly groundbreaking. This tripod is mostly made out of magnesium-aluminum alloy, features grippy twist locks for the height adjust as well as metal latches for precise height and stability adjustment, extending and 90 degree bending center column, a superb metal ball head with a quick release plate featuring fluid rotation.

In reality, there are three important features that make this tripod stand out. First off, the head. Instead of the 3-way movement done by the individual knobs found on a typical budget tripod head, this head features a metal ball. This allows for more finer adjustments, which in turn can save you time with setting up your shot. The head also features fluid rotating motion, which make it super easy to take panoramic shots or video. Second, this tripod features the ability to extend the center column of the tripod and convert it into a 90 degree arm. This opens up possibilities to take over the top shots, which is hard to recreate with other tripods out there, let alone with your hands. This also opens the possibility to setup your camera with complete 360 degree freedom. Third and last thing that makes this tripod stand out is the ability to fine adjust the individual legs and the center column. If you want stability, then you can spread out the legs, and if you want to take close up macro shots, you can remove the center column and put it back upside down.

I would say that all of these additional features that the K&F Concept tripod has to offer really are worth that extra cash, as some of these features alone could justify partially if not all of the additional cost when comparing to tripods under $100, but that is because I see myself using these features more than once throughout the lifespan of this tripod, and having these features on hand makes me confident that I am able to use my camera with no compromises. If you are the type of photographer who seeks the absolute best tripod that could achieve or enhance your artistic vision, and you are in need of these bells and whistles, then by all means go ahead and get this. But for the majority of beginners out there, I believe it is a lot more important for them to invest this extra money on a better lens or filters or other accessories, as at the end of the day, those extras alone can make or break a photo.

I will get straight to the point. If you can't afford a Manfrotto tripod but you want something that can do similar things, just buy this Tripod. Seriously. I'll even go one step further and say, even if you can afford a more expensive tripod, you should give this one a shot!

The tripod comes with a carrying case, and while it can extend for over 72" (The specs say 72' but it actually can stand taller depending on the angle of the legs), it can still be relatively compact when folded down. Made out of Aluminum, it's pretty light considering the size and functionality. The legs unfold and lock in position using easy to release clamps that make adjusting the angle pretty quick. The legs are also adjustable for height, of course, and have rubberized pointy ends for a stable set up.

The tripod has a stable ball head that that locks tightly and still, allows you to move the head in 360 degrees for a very smooth movement and is perfect for those smooth pan shots. You are also able to adjust the resistance for faster or slower pans. The tripod is also equipped with a quick release plate and a bubble level to help you get straight shots.

The central column of the tripod can be tilted at a 90 degrees angle and can also be reversed and mounted from the bottom for macro shots or any scenes that you want to capture from below. There is also a little hook at the end of the central column for you to hang sandbags or other weights to help make the tripod more stable.

As all this was not enough, one of the legs of the tripod can be separately detached and converts your rig into a monopod with a rubberized handle.

This is highly recommended and I will be looking at more of this company's products because I am really impressed with the quality. I have already ordered a wireless lav mic from them.

Well impressed with the quality of this for the money , pretty solid and sturdy. Just what I need for when I'm out and about , folds to a small enough size to fit in rucksack . Nice colour too, like a pale bronze matt finish . Top marks

I am only an amateur photographer; but really appreciate the quality and durability of this tripod system for the price. I had viewed other much more expensive systems on the market just for the swivel ball capability alone. This unit affords great strength without excess weight. It is great with the mechanical means that it not only has legs that detract like other brands; but a manner in which they fold back onto themselves and the main tripod body for space saving. This is a well built tripod.
All the engineering is solid and I've had the tripod in the field several times now with no difficulties at all. It stays locked in the position you place it in. The added bonus is that it has the arm that can hold the camera out over the edge of a deck or dock - which I've already utilized. Highly recommended.

Tripod comes in a nice carrying bag from a good material.
The product is designed to take as less space as possible - big plus.
I not a big fan of the rounded leg locks but those feels sturdy.
The maximum hight is above my eye level - Im 1.75m.
I like the versatility of the ballhead with the extending middle pole. You can put it in a 90 degree and do food photography for example.
The head itself with the plate are not on a professional level but Im not a pro and it keeps it compact and that is a big consideration for me. Pro head can easily cost 1.5- 2 times more than this whole package so Im very happy with the cost.
If you are into monopods then there is a leg you can unscrew and put the head on.
Recommended indeed.

Now I have 2 tripods, would have preferred to only purchase the iPhone attachment that attaches to the tripod. However it is good for the job at hand.
