67''/3.93lbs Aluminum Horizontal Camera Video Tripod With Monopod & 32mm Ball Head 26lbs Load - T255A4+BH-32L(Gray)
SKU: KF09.085V5
Haven't used it yet but the product looks to be of good quality. The only problem I have is the instructions are badly translated Hard to understand what "Do not away form the people when use in the public areas" Luckily I can use my head to figure out just what is meant

Très polyvalent, léger mais robuste. Sa taille courte et son poids léger permettent de l'apporter pour des longues sorties

After purchasing our first kf concept tripod we were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the materials, the solidity and the value for money. So we decided to renew the tripods in our studio. As soon as we bought it we put it to the test with two sets of studios and it proved to be as good as we expected!
In the box we find our tripod , carrying bag , always useful in case of travel where you need to bring a studio tripod , and ... .
The tripod is very compact, when closed it measures only 40cm, which makes it ideal to be transported on photographic trips and long journeys, its lightness makes it easy to carry and to put in a luggage in case of air travel. Fully extended it reaches a height of 154 cm and thanks to its 5 sections it can be adjusted with good precision. The 5 section extenders are screw fasteners, we usually tend to prefer the hook fasteners but these have proved to be very practical, just take them all together with one hand and in one movement they can all be unscrewed, great for those who need to extend the tripod quickly. As in many tripods you have the possibility to unhook one of the legs and make it become a monopod, very quick on this tripod but the fixing system is really good and the grip on the unscrewing pod makes it very comfortable to use.
Let's move on to the ball head, which allows excellent flexibility in shooting, reaching any desired angle and being able to rotate 360°. The base of the head in turn has the possibility of having a fluid 360° rotation, useful both for panoramas and for videos, where the graduated scale at its base becomes very convenient. The release plate is good, even if it is made of plastic. But we come to the real highlight of this tripod, the transverse column, is in fact the main reason why we bought this tripod, the ability to move from the area where the feet of the tripod would be in the view and shoot perpendicularly downwards. Good extension, allows you to work easily with vertical shots on many surfaces, tables, floors, as well as to shoot from elevated ledges without risking the equipment or having to lean out personally, also great when you shoot by reversing the tripod in order to reach perspectives otherwise impossible.
PRO
Transverse column
Ball head
Lightness
Compactness
COUNTER Nothing major, the lightness means it's counterbalanced if you're outdoors or shooting with heavy equipment but that's even with high end and much more expensive tripods
WOULD YOU RECOMMEND
This tripod at a very affordable price point is definitely one of the best if not the best on the market, complete with every feature a tripod should have in 2019 it offers everything at a hyper competitive price, the quality is great and the tripod passed our tests with flying colours, obviously all in relation to the price. Excellent alternative to much more expensive tripods, recommended for amateur and professional photographers but also for those who want a tripod that can be used to make videos on youtube, even for unboxing and overhead shots!

My fist tripod as I am trying to make some videos for my craft. I like that I can make videos with the horizontal bar going across.

Very pleased with this tripod nice and compact fits nicely in the side pocket of my backpack especially like the monopod feature that this tripod gives you it’s gives you so many options to getting your pictures I have another tripod which has served me well over the years but it’s a bit big and heavy so having this K&F tripod is going to be so much easier to take on photo shoots

I've always disliked tripods as I feel they are restrictive, but this is a great piece of kit! It's light, it's easy to set up, the 360 arm is perfect for my needs and it comes in a strong carry case. Highly recommended

What a great bit of kit, the tripod is so versatile and can be set in many different shooting positions safely and securely, I would be interested to see how the K&F Gimbal performs on this tripod, come on K&F send me one out and I will give it a road test and write a full review for you. Highly Recommended
