I needed a lightweight tripod due to weight restrictions on the small planes we were on while traveling north of the Arctic Circle. This tripod fit the bill.
Pros:
-lightweight
-compact when folded
-very good ball head at this price point
-easy to adjust with heavy gloves at -25°F
-good value for the price
Cons:
-not the most stable tripod, but in all fairness I only had issues when my full-sized DSLR with 500mm lens was mounted. The stability issues were easily remedied by hanging my gear bag from the included hook at the bottom of the vertical bar, thus giving the setup a lower center of gravity.
I recommend this tripod for travel. It was an indispensable piece of equipment for photographing the Northern Lights and for nighttime infrared wildlife shots.

I'm a photographer and when you want to take perfect photos, you should have this K&F Concept 62'' DSLR Tripod. Cause with it, you can take incredible photos. It’s important for me that the tripod is lightweight and easy to use. I can recommend it. Thank you

I shoot the stars. I was using a cheep tri pod and wanted to toss it off a very high ledge a few times. I love the ball head and the fact I can look at the screen without moving the camera.

It’s a full-sized tripod that reaches a lofty operating height of 175cm, yet shrinks to a fairly modest folded height of 57cm. That’s despite the tripod lacking swing-up legs.
The tripod legs remain rigid and sturdy even at their maximum operating height, with the centre column fully extended (and the four-section legs help to reduce the carrying size). It’s absolutely rock-solid, comes complete with an adjustable friction damper and pan only release.

I purchased it 1 year ago. I am traveling photographer and were using it once a month and after 1 year of such usage the ball head horizontal rotation fixating screw just fell off and i don't know how to put it in place
I was very satisfied with this tripod but now i am disappointed.
*** UPDATE ***
I have been contacted by K&F promptly after my review and received replacement to the damaged Tipod! So i have decided to update review and change rating to 5 stars. Great support and customer service!

I bought this as a secondary tripod because I wanted something lighter and easier to set up than my old Manfrotto tripod. This tripod is definitely lighter and I love that it comes with a quality carrying case as well. Another bonus is that this also comes with a ball head that is compatible with the Arca Swiss mounts which is great for run and gun shoots when you have to move your camera around. The locking mechanisms on the legs are self-explanatory and simple to adjust. I like that it has a hook at the center column for you to hang your camera bag or any weight there to hold the tripod down in windy conditions. The first shoot I took this on was an extremely windy sports shoots and all the other photographers' tripods were falling over from the wind but I was able to widen my base and it held up perfectly. Overall, I would recommend this tripod to beginners, especially those who are invested in the Arca Swiss system. By adding these plates to all my cameras, it makes my life so much easier when moving my camera around in shoots.

I bought this tripod for my Sony nx80 so I could carry it on my hunting trips, and I'm very happy with it.
I'm able to zoom my cameras to Max and get excellent steady footage. One feature that really helps is to be able to expand the legs and adapt it to any terrain and maintain the perfect level.
I have mention that I switched the head to a fluid head to be able to pan a lot easier.
Hope this helps and good luck!?
