Great height, versitile light weight sturdy tripod! Value for money!
I am a professional architecture and interior photographer and also do videography. Was looking for a tripod that is light yet stable and sturdy (since my equipment can be heavy i.e. tilt shift/telezoom lenses, and expensive). This K&F tripod ticked all the boxes and the price point is perfect.
This tripod has an excellent and smooth quick release system which is important for me especially when moving from location to location during the critical lighting window for outdoor shots.
The tripod's height is impressive and it can be extended with an option to attach additional weight at the centre of gravity point to make it even more secure.
I personally prefer twist locks for the tripod legs, although this is definitely a matter of personal preference. The legs can also be extended outwards using the quick release clip to have an even lower height. This may be particularly helpful when trying to get a lower vantage point for artistic reasons, such as when focussing on the foreground.
Would definitely reccomend as a studio or outdoor tripod or even for events and travel! Carbon fiber tripods are ideal for travelling.

Great product
We bought this camera for my son as he wanted a gopro, but we weren't ready to spend the money for the name. This did not disappoint. The touch screen works great. The remote abilities come in handy. The video and quality are fabulous.The camera comes with so many attachments and 2 batteries which was a perk. Battery life works great for my son and what he uses it for, plus we always have a backup since it came with 2.Overall, very pleased with the product and quality and would definitely recommend it to others.

Impressive
Just got my new camera and tried it out at a pool party. This was impressive. Was hesitant about it being fully waterproof but it was flawless.Pros:BATTERY LIFE!!!!Great action shotsCame with plenty of accessoriesTouch screenScreen on back of camera (had an early model gopro that didn’t)Not bulkyCame with 2 battery packsCons:My only wish was that there was more of an instruction manual. Also that the accessories were listed out as to what they were for. A couple I have no idea how to use.Overall I’m extremely pleased and highly recommend.

Great camera if you're not doing some high end edi
Great camera if you're not doing some high end editing. I actually like the session over the regular hero's. I've had issues with water entering the regular hero's and killing the camera. Haven't had any water issue's with the session. Battery life is excellent... I can surf for 3-4 hr session and still haven't killed the battery. I recommend the session for the durability, battery life, ease of use, video quality and definitely the price.

Good company, I plan to review product soon
Updated: My original review of this camera was not a good one. I was not happy with the quality. However, since then the company has reached out to me. They saw that I was not happy and wanted to fix it. They were nice enough to send me a new camera, a more recent version. I am planning on doing a comparison soon and will post the results.Either way, I can say with confidence (from my own first hand experience), that if for some reason you are not happy with this product, the company will do whatever they can to make it right.

but Ive come to really like it. It fits in places
So far Ive only had this camera for a couple weeks, but Ive come to really like it. It fits in places most other camera wont fit and shoots pretty good video quality. Of course it not as good as any of the hero 5 models, but you get what you pay for it. I tested the waterproof-ness and it handled it no problem. Audio quality is excellent and doesn't distort even at high music volume. Ive been using it as a dash cam so far but have other plans down the road.

Most bang for your buck!
I just got this camera, it's my second AKASO, and all of the things that I wanted from the first are here. The double screen is amazing, and bright enough to see in the sun. Picture quality is great at 20MP, and the video is as good or better than my buddy's GoPro. I really dig it. I will be messing around with it in the swimming pool to check out the water resistance, as well as mounting it on my motorcycle for fun. High build quality and looks and works like a much more expensive camera.

Low light problems when image stabilisation is tur
Well, this is a damn good camera for the price, it could easily compete with GoPro Hero 5. Be careful you use the best microSD cards, the cheap ones can give you errors sometimes.My problem was with the low light exposure. A lot of times objects where too dark for an indoor shot. Then i noticed that if you turn off image stabilisation, everything it”s pretty fine. I wish i could have the image stabilisation also, but...Besides that, really great camera, with AWESOME battery life

Whatre you waiting for? Stop second guessing.
Amazing camera. Hands down the better gopro thus far. The auto rotate alone would be enough for me to upgrade cameras at such a similar pricepoint. I also have a hero 3+ so I am able to directly compare the two in overall video/photo quality. Best differences are the audio quality, video brightness, and 4k. I love the fact that it still fits in all my other mounts. I would have been very disappointed if I needed all new mounts for this camera.
