I have had several tripods in my life time, but none quiet like the K&F Concepts 78 inch tripod with the 360 Degree Ball Head. After reading the enclosed paperwork (1 small sheet of paper) I went onto YouTube and watched some vids on the tripod. Even the Ken Franks website was very informative also.
So far I have not found any "cons" on the tripod. I have taken photos in every position you can imagine, I even tried the "hanging the camera" upside down and got some great close ups of ants, bugs, spiders and yes even grass.
Living in the South at this particular time outdoor shooting is based on the weather. I cant wait to get out and do some landscapes and see the results.
If you are looking for a tripod for you camera that is of outstanding quality without breaking the bank, I highly recommend this tripod. I got the 78 inch version due to being 6 foot 3 inches.
Ken does have other styles and heights. Check them out. You won't go wrong!

I'd give this a five star but for the ball head. It doesn't lock well with a spotting scope or a heavy lens and camera body on it. I ended up buying a Neewer pan/tilt head, which fortunately fits the K&F tripod well. Other than that, it is a decent piece of equipment. Just keep in mind, it is a travel tripod, and won't give you a solid mount impervious to wiggling from wind or hand adjustments. For that, I continue to look for that elusive affordable tripod.

I had a Ranger which I lost and replaced it with this. Overall it is fine. It is a tad longer than the Ranger and harder to pack. The levers of adjusting the ball took some getting used to and have trouble locking in with the weight of of large lens. Overall a good value and does what you need it to do.

I have gone through dozens of tripods. Using it for both work and photography hobby, this is one of the best tripods I’ve ever had. Works great, lightweight and the carry case is very nice.

This tripod impressed us for its lightness, really really light, it is ideal for anyone who plans a lot of trips and wants to take this tripod everywhere, its super compact size makes it the best friend of bags, backpacks and hand luggage. Excellent folding handle that allows a comfortable grip for short trips without having to store the tripod and thus having it always ready for use and without always fighting with the legs to find a comfortable grip. This tripod makes readiness for use one of its main features, in fact the clip release of the legs, which we prefer over the screw ones, makes it very quick to prepare, from closed and stored in the backpack to completely open with the machine in position in less than 30 seconds, you'll never miss a moment again.

Use this as a webcam tripod for my DSLR. Minimum height may be a bit tall but it does allow you to flip the mount orientation and have a more grounded vantage point

Love everything about the tripod. Exactly as described. A little heavier than I thought it would be. Takes some practice to use but still would highly recommend.

This is a great value! It’s very stable and lightweight. I am looking forward to using this on my hunting trips this fall!

Il peut manquer de stabilité quand on deporte l'appareil photo dans la disposition la plus haute (mais c'est logique, ce n'est pas un défaut de conception).
