Aluminium Camera Tripod with Transverse Center Column 72"/185cm 10kg/22lbs Load Capacity with 360 Degree Ball Head T254A3+BH-28L (S211)

Fast and safety delivery ! I get a good Tripod. thanks.

I researched various tripods before deciding on this one and I’m pleased that I did. The tripod folds up neatly and comes with a carry case which has reflective material on it. The tripod itself is very sturdy and well made. I like that it can be used as a monopod. The quality and design of this tripod is fantastic. The different configurations make it really versatile for lots of different shots. The height of this tripod is perfect for overhead work too. I can’t praise the quality and design of this tripod enough.

purchased this tripod to take long exposure shots of the sea. For fun, I took the same shots with my husband’s Gitzo carbon fibre tripod.

In terms of equipment, I mounted a Canon 6D Mark II with a Marumi 6 stop ND filter. I took exposures of around 10-30 seconds in winds of 12 mph gusting to 16mph. Yep, I checked the wind speed!

My feeling is that the biggest difference between the two tripods is the weight in transit. Carbon fibre is lighter than aluminium but in actual use both tripods are rock solid.

I should say that because the Gitzo is over £600, the K&F is exceptional value for money. I found it sturdy, well constructed, and I really liked the fact that the main tripod column has another hidden column inside it like some sort of Russian doll. It took me some time to figure out where it was but once I did I was very satisfied with myself. :-) Once you pull it out, it can be rotated transversely so as to mount your camera in portrait mode. Brilliant!

Suffice to say that I couldn’t tell the difference between the seascapes I took with this K&F tripod and the Gitzo, which just goes to show for the hundredth time that it’s not the gear you have but the skill you have that matters.

As for micro movements affecting camera shake, I believe that both tripods in real world use probably had about the same. In the end, it came down to my ability to use them.

I’ve included some shots of the K&F tripod because I feel so strongly about this product that I think it’s important to show off the build quality. I really like it. For the money, it’s an absolute winner.

Excellent tripod with super smooth action gimbal head. Originally thought I might not like the thumb screw adjustments (as opposed to the turnbuckles on a conventional unit) however, they are great and very easy to use. Even in its fully extended state the tripod is stable and does not exhibit any buckling tendencies. The leg extension clamps are positive and clamp very well. The overall feel of this tripod is one of exceptional quality, particularly considering the price. It has a flexible screw head which allows the tripod to screw into my projector without any issues. It comes complete with a carrying case.

Love my new tripod so easy to use I have the fold back instead of the screw for the legs so many combinations for the tripod to use. love the way I can get close up when I take macro photos my other tripod not a K&F only allowed me to get within a few feet.

This product looks great when you get it out of the box, it comes in a nice padded carry case with handles and a shoulder strap. It comes with basic instructions that give the user the required info to be able to use all features of the tripod.

The tripod itself is very stable and feels extremely well made. The aluminium construction is nice, but does add a little weight, though for the functionality it’s a small sacrifice.

A single leg is detachable allowing for the conversion to a monopod, which as per the images, can be used with the ball head mount. This can be done with no tools required, which gives great flexibility when on location, as it doesn’t require extra gear to be carried.

Towering over me at around 2m tall when fully extended or when reconfigured the centre post can be mounted upside down. The horizontal arm allows for the perfect position for top down shooting or macro photography, giving a reasonable reach with good stability.

Overall I am very impressed with this tripod and would definitely recommend it, especially when compared to competitors offerings, which generally have a much higher price point. K&F have produced a great product that is a pleasure to use.

Cause it's Rock... F'n... Solid.Legs open quickly and stay where you put them. Everything slides in and out smoothly. The post is great. You can whip it out and aggressively move it around while the legs keep everything stable and balanced. And the balls are awesome! They're silky smooth so be careful! You might get whacked upside the face by the post if you don't screw that knob and grip those balls right. It's pretty tough so don't be afraid to toss it into the back of the van and treat it like a discount rental. When you're done just toss it down the basement or lend it out to all your friends.Well, enough about me. Let's talk about the tripod...

It's a nice tripod, but some of the parts are substandard. Some of the knobs used for locking things into place are plastic and wear out quickly, the locking knob for the ball stripped out after only three or four uses. Now the camera won't stay in place, hoping I can get it fixed because I do not want to buy a whole new ball head for one stripped out knob. I have been in contact with the seller and they gave me the option of buying a new head which I really don't want to do.

I was loking for a tripod and this works perfect

Love the tripod, it's just a pain t work with. It's not user friendly.
