Love this tripod, very easy to use and well made. I think I have finally found one I won't have to replace in two years! I am not a professional so I don't use it daily, but I usually purchase tripods in this same price range and most have more plastic than this one and are no where near as durable as this one. It also has much more versatility for positions. I appreciate the head, I didn't wan't to have to turn so many knobs to do everything and this tripod takes care of that issue. With a higher weight limit than most in the same price range I don't have to worry about my D90 and flash on it either. Oh - it has a great carrying/storage bag as well. Thanks!

Clever design for legs allows 180 deg movt and short length when folded for travel. Also means that head can be used upside down for macro shooting. Instructions are poor but probably unnecessary. Good solid release plate for camera.

Wow! Extremely pleased with this tripod. I have been looking for a lightweight alternative to my trusty Manfrotto 3205LC with Manfrotto 496RC2 head. I do a lot of hiking and backpacking as part of my landscape photography, getting off the beaten path, often times 10+ miles from the trailhead. The manfrotto always weighs me down, it is HEAVY! The problem is I needed a lightweight tripod that is relatively inexpensive (carbon fiber is out, great but WAY out of my price range), compact yet can handle the weight of my 5dmkii kit and L lenses. A friend recommended this to me and I must say, I am beyond pleased! It is a third less in size when folded up than my manfrotto and 2-3lbs lighter. It is light! This is huge for me. But, how is the functionality of it? Well, the legs extend via quick release tabs vs. the screw knob handle things on my old tripod (much faster to open). I also have more movements for when I want to get all the way down to the ground but have the legs out of the way, the tripod can be inverted (if this makes sense, just see the product pictures of better explanation). The head is different than the manfrotto head, in a good way. The manfrotto is quick release which is nice but the quick release plate never instilled confidence and I would be nervous the camera would come loose. On this tripod, you screw the plate into place. A bit slower, but instills confidence which I need when I have a 1k lens and full frame body being mounted to it. The movements are smoother too, much silkier with a built in leveler. Nice little touches like this. Just a refined tripod vs the utilitarian one I have been using. I took this tripod out for a good trial run over the weekend, 2.5 mile boulder hopping trail to a great waterfall, no issues carrying it. Not tired at all. K&F Tripod was stable in all shooting situations. I highly recommend this to anyone wanting a quality tripod at a reasonable price, especially to those looking for lightweight and compact.

I needed a lightweight tripod for my photography traveling adventures. This tripod is super light and easy to use. It fit perfectly in my rolling carry-on bag.

This is one of the best quality tripods I have ever owned. It is very light but still very sturdy and small enough to carry when traveling. The maximum height that this can be extended to is 62" making it easy to take pictures while standing. The leg lock makes it easy to open or close in a few seconds. Quick release plate allows to connect and disassemble the camera in seconds. The bubble level helps to quickly find the balance of the rack. It also comes with a bag to store and carry around. love it!!

This tripod is worth the extra money over the less expensive options. This is very nice, great quality.

Light wheight and it comes with a very nice durable carry bag, made of thick material.I don’t like having to remove two legs with two Allen bolts to transform into mono pod. Would. Quick release would be nice.

This is the 4th tripod that I buy and may be the last one. My previous one was a manfrotto tripod which costed twice the price as this one and doesn't have half of the functionalities this one has.I'm very satisfied with this one. It does everything I wanted to have for a professional tripod. Super lightweight, I take it on hikes for night photography. The hook underneath helps to keep it more stable even tho it's already super stable. Each leg moves independently.I highly recommend it. Very sturdy, would buy it again for a friend!

It was just what I was looking for. Sturdy and easy to carry

I'm used to using a Manfrotto Tripod, so obviously this one isn't as good, but its light and pretty convenient to carry around. I trust it and there are plenty of reviews/videos which led me to purchasing this one.
