I needed a compact, lightweight tripod that I could take with me to work that involved traveling by train or plane.

Right out of the box I could see that this tripod would give me a nice compact option for travel. It's lightweight (weighing just 1.13kg), folds up pretty small (46.5cm) and even comes with its own carry case (which my Manfrotto doesn't have). This tripod comes with a ball head - a different system for maneuvering the camera than I'm used to. I think I could always consider replacing the ball head on this tripod with a 3-way system for future use.

The build quality of the K&F Concept tripod is what I would call decent but not groundbreaking, but at this price point. You don't get carbon fiber or other premium materials, instead you get a magnesium-aluminum alloy and plastic frame. Fully extended a camera can be mounted at 156cm, which isn't the highest height at all, but I don't think a tripod marketed as compact is going to be among the tallest on the market. However, 156 cm is probably large enough for most situations. The center column of the tripod can be reversed for macro photography. Like all tripods I've ever used, the K&F Concept Tripod features a quick release plate system, which involves mounting a plate to the underside of your camera.

I liked how small and light the tripod is to take with me. I have to take a lot of gear on shoots, so it's always good to lighten the load a bit. However, due to the light weight, I wouldn't say that this tripod holds up well in windy outdoor conditions when shooting landscapes. It works well for my main uses and the carrying case is a very handy addition. For the price, it's certainly a decent option for a photographer who travels a lot.

Ordered the tripod with great anticipation. What can I say? Just awesome.

Shipping great. The tripod is packed in a very sturdy carrying case.

Despite the Chinese or English instructions, the assembly is super easy. All materials are of high quality and do not show an 0815 product.
I'm already looking forward to using it, whether I want to use it at my height or deep down in macro photography. Yes, it is super versatile and I would recommend this tripod to anyone.

I think this is a very good value and compares to many tripods in terms of features and quality materials. I am happy with my purchase and this is a great upgrade over my previous tripod.

Admittedly, the system of magnetic filters is not entirely new and I cannot say who copied from whom, but I already know K&F from their very good lens adapters and solid tripods. And since I've been flirting with magnetic round filters for a long time, but up to now the prices for such a system have seemed too steep to me, I was of course interested that K&F now also offers something like this.

In itself a good tripod, is quite large when folded.

Visually and qualitatively, it makes a very valuable impression. The locking screws and tripod legs also appear to be of very high quality.

Even though I wasn't familiar with the brand at first, but there are a lot of tripods of it on Amazon, I decided to give the whole thing a chance. And I have to say I wasn't disappointed!

I'll start this review with a caveat, my reviews are usually long and detailed, but I like to write reviews in a way that helps other buyers, especially when buying from relatively unknown or overseas companies.
This is my first purchase from this company and I have to say I'm really, really impressed. This is not necessarily a 'blind buy' as I was lucky enough to find their company's stand at this year's (2019) NEC Photo Show in Birmingham, UK.
There I had the opportunity to process and play with some of their various tripods and lens filters. Then I left without buying while contemplating which kit to upgrade.
I'm an avid amateur photographer so I'm on a budget for my gear and have 'settled' with a cheap tripod that I've had for years and have gone through so many repairs over the years that I decided to give it a go time was improve!
I ordered this tripod and it came in very good packaging. In the box I found the tripod and accessories in a sturdy but decent carrying case with handles. (see photo). The bag contains a tripod with a ball head in a very elegant, velvety protective drawstring pouch. The bag also has a shoulder strap and a pocket with adapters, instructions and an "Allen" key to tighten the tripod's legs if necessary. Recommended!
