SKU: KF09.101V3
I had a ranger that I lost and replaced with this one. Overall it's ok. It's slightly longer than the Ranger and heavier to pack. The bullet adjustment levers took a little getting used to and struggle to engage with the weight of a large lens. Overall good value for money and does what you need.

I've had several tripods in my life, but none have been as quiet as the K&F Concepts 78-inch 360-degree ball head tripod. After reading the attached documentation (1 small piece of paper), I went to YouTube and watched some videos on the tripod. Ken Franks website was also very informative. So far I have found no "disadvantages" s.Tripod. I took photos in every position imaginable, even tried hanging the camera upside down and got some great close-ups of ants, bugs, spiders and yes even grass. Life in the south at this particular time depends on the weather. I can't wait to get out there and do some landscapes and see the results. If you are looking for a tripod for your camera that is great quality without breaking the bank I would highly recommend this tripod. I have the 78" version as I'm 6ft 3" tall. Ken has other styles and sizes. Look at her. You won't go wrong!

Without the ball head I would give 5 stars. It doesn't lock down well with a spotting scope or a heavy lens and camera body on it. I ended up buying a Neewer pan/tilt head which luckily fits the K&F tripod nicely. Other than that, it's a decent device. Just keep in mind that it's a travel tripod and won't give you a solid mount that's impervious to wind or manual adjustments. For that, I keep looking for that elusive, affordable tripod.

Aside from buying some ultra-pro gear, which is a bit of overkill, this unit handles everything tripod-related, and if you buy the full version, the accessory includes a small spirit level, so no more shaky horizons or unwanted converging verticals available. You can also get the best shots to start with instead of running around with unsquare images in photo software afterwards. Mainly aluminum apart from some plastic latches and rubber feet so doesn't get loose and wobbly too quickly like those cheap generic badged tripods. Also comes in a cute tote bag with adjustable straps. Couldn't fault it.

K&F Concept Camera Tripod K234A7 + BH-28L + Extension Arm Kits I only uploaded 1 of the 2 videos and preferred the second one in which I explain how and where to put the different parts as the manufacturer includes a slim guide as on the photo shown. Assemble the pieces by looking at the various presentation photos, it would be 4 stars for this particular one but the tripod is worth the 5 stars. The supplied short pole is 30cm long, while the closed stand reaches 50cm. How I use the tripod is very easy to use and see the various reviews for more measurements and opinions on how well it works. Just saying I use it with Tamron 150/600 G2 on Nikon D7200 and Celestron Ultima 80 Spotting Scope both on the head ball that comes with it and the gimbal to replace it but only on a smooth tripod without the extension pole that I use have not tried. Relatively light excellent transport bag with reflective insert and shoulder strap with padded shoulder strap. The head comes with a one-for-all attachment and is of the Arca-Swiss compatible type.

The parts all move smoothly and are of high quality material, very durable. It's easy to set up and has a nice carrying case for travel. It is stable without being heavy which is very convenient. The clamps for extending the legs work perfectly, they are easy and quick to use yet they clamp down very securely. The price is very competitive for the quality of this tripod!

I normally don't go over $50 for a tripod but wanted something that was a little more solid and was not large. This does the job. I use tripods 2-3 times a week for video and pictures. The K F concepts tripod is solid and has plenty of adjustments. The knobs feel tight and nothing rattles or is loose. Tripod gets very tall.
