Resurrects an old product category
This takes me back to old Slik tripods whose legs did not have cross-braces. While not the most stable tripods that exist, they are exceptionally easy to set up and break down without pinching your fingers in a folding mechanism.
The K&F version improves on it in a couple of ways:
- The Arca clamp is useful and compatible with tons of plates
- The real ball head is more fun than a video-style handle
The one design choice I do not like is common to a lot of K&F tripods, and it is the self-leveling feet. You really need spikes for outdoors, and the self-leveling nature of feet is kind of pointless with a tripod, since three legs form a perfect plane on any surface. Rounded feet would have sufficed here.
All in all, it's a solid value.
