K&F Concept 78”
Movo GH800 Gimbal Head
Nikon 200-500 f5.6
I am more than pleased with this setup, pleasantly surprised with the quality at this price point. I caught the DSLR photo bug in 2014. Just recently I invested in a new Nikon long lens and quickly learned it is not ideal to handhold. I am not a pro, just a serious weekend photo geek. I could not justify the $2000 for a Really Right Stuff tripod with a Wimberly gimbal. I am sure they are top shelf gear, but I am not there yet. I am 5’11” and was able to adjust this tripod to my eye level with ease & probably another foot to spare. The tripod may look a bit scrawny, but was surprisingly sturdy with this gear. I did notice some minor wobble, when I grabbed it by the neck and shook it as a shock test. But I was spinning the gimbal all day chasing Bald Eagles, and the camera & lens were smooth and solidly planted. The carry case is also very well thought out, sturdy zipper, shoulder strap, made for field use. Haven’t tried the monopod and ball head out yet, but I was real happy

Honestly, I don't use tripod that often. Neither do I intend to bring it to war. So I only look for a tripod at a reasonable price that doesn't fall apart within a few touches.
Then I saw this first from Laura BC, digged a little bit and decide to purchase it.
First impression is it might be a bit heavy-ish, but feels solid, sturdy, like I can fight with this tripod. I kinda like the orange accent though I often prefer all-black gears. It is more compact than I though, which is nice. Came in a shoulder bag and assemble was straightforward. Everything else is already shown by the seller or other reviewers.
One thing that is just slightly inconvenient is that it takes 5 locks to fully extend instead of 3, though I still prefer the twist lock over the snap lock. Just slightly slower, but not a deal breaker for me. Still love it.

Very nice Stand, I use it for my spotting scope. It has tonnes of adjustment to it, it's built well, quality feel to it, easy to adjust quickly. Moves smooth and locks in nice and tight. Super light and comes with a decent carrying case the rubber feet keep it from slipping on any surface.
It's super sturdy and trustworthy.

The K&F Concept 78 inch Tripod with 32mm ball head has all the features you would want at this price point, you really are getting a lot for what you're paying.
Aluminum legs and a 32mm ball head that supports 26lbs. Tripod feels very sturdy and stable with the camera mounted, although I'm only using a Nikon D5600 with a kit lens so it isn't that heavy. The clamp for the plate is sturdy and tight ensuring the camera and plate don't fall out while shooting vertically, which this ball head is capable of doing.
Plenty of height adjustments can be made with the 3 supporting legs and also with the central axis that the camera sits on. The 3 legs can be locked at specific angles, providing more flexibility for uneven surfaces or added stability in certain situations. The central axis can even be taken out and used as a monopod which is a nice feature to have.
K&F customer support is very responsive and quick to help with any kind of issue you may have with one of their products. I had an issue that I caused and K&F got back to me within a day and soon after I was provided a solution. It's reassuring to know that there is product support provided by K&F to their customers.
Overall, for around 100 dollars, this tripod is a steal.

A very robust and very complete tripod. I have a camera with a heavy telephoto lens and it's the ideal accessory for going to photograph nature. In addition, it is very small folded and gives you the option of making it a monopod as well. A joy, let's go.

The easel in itself is good but it arrived indecently and the fixing plate is missing inside. Certainly a used product. I think I will change the brand even if I trust the company that I consider valid and consider the lack of the bracket to be a factory defect.

customer service that solved the problem without delay so I change my review to 5 stars

I had an issue with the tripod head, but the seller replaced it right away. They were very responsible and helped me throughout the whole process.
I use this tripod for real estate photography, and it works extremely well — it has great height, it’s very stable, and the build quality is impressive for the price.
Highly recommended!
