K&F CONCEPT Magnetic Quick Release Foldable Selfie Stick Compatible with Insta360 X5, 89cm/35inch Aluminum Alloy Extension Rod Invisible Pole, Adjustable Handle Grip with Safety Lock
SKU: KF12.0001
You really can’t go wrong with this brand. I’ve got a few of their products already and they’ve all been excellent quality, and this selfie stick is no different.It’s sturdy but lightweight, folds down nicely for carrying, and extends smoothly without any wobble. Works perfectly with the Insta360 X5, and the included lens protective case is a great extra.Feels solid in use and locks firmly in place, so you can trust it with your camera.Overall, another well-made, reliable bit of kit from K&F.

£36 at time of reviewThe great thing about standards is that there’s so many to choose from ;)While I do like the insta360 quick release system it’s yet another new standard that I need to get an adapter for. Go Pro popularised the now ubiquitous action camera system, which is versatile, if not clunky, but it offered a more secure fitting than the standard 3/4” thread. I’ve standardised on ARCA QT plates for all my mirrorless cameras and have action cam ARCA adapters etcMy Insta360 One RS + 1” Leica lens has a 3/4” thread, as does it’s underwater cage, but since then insta360 have introduced their new QR system, so my Insta360 Ace Pro 2 has that on the camera body and on it’s included case. My insta360 selfie sticks have 3/4” threads, ironically insta360 DO NOT sell a selfie stick themselves that incorporates their own QR system, they all have 3/4” threads, I mean seriously!?!?!Grrrrrrr, you see the issue… If you have the X5 this stick is a fantastic addition, build quality is top notch, it feels very solid, and when extended it still holds well and doesn’t bend under the weight of the camera (and I attached my Insta360 Ace Pro 2 which is heavier than the X5)The way this folds over at the end to make it more pocketable, is a brilliant little feature that makes it very practicable in use. So there’s pros and cons of this stick, if you only have an X5 or another insta360 camera that has their QR system this is a no brainer. If you want to use this stick with a device that has a 3/4” thread hole, then you can get adapters that convert insta360 QR to a 3/4” thread on here relatively cheaply (K&F most likely have one themselves, or will do soon)Hope my review was helpful

K&F killed it with this product, it is extremely compact perfect for traveling yet at full extension just a bit smaller than the action insta 360 stick. I also purchased the insta 360 foldable but that it going right back as it is extremely short. I will say I would like if for a future release a better material as it does feel a little flimsy but over all I highly recommend it.

Really well built, but I had 2 issues. One it doesn’t stay together when folded and it doesn’t really allow the regular case. I prefer the fabric case to silicone one. If unfolding and a silicone (included) lens cover works I think you’ll love this.

Took an uncomfortable amount of pressure to snap the camera to the mount. I’m nervous it will break, so far working as intended. Great alternative to the very expensive insta360 version. I miss the built in tripod, but the trade off to have more length is worth it to me. (I have a half dozen pocket tripods already anyway)

I have been looking for a compact and accessible solution to having the X5 with me when hiking. With this folding selfie stick I can put it in a small fanny pack in front of me that does not interfere with my day pack. My prior setup required taking by pack off each time I wanted to shoot.

This one is better than the Insta360 branded version. Why? The handle is smaller so I'm able to fit it in my EDC bag, the mount is the x5 mount so it just clips in but even better is there is a lock so no worries about it falling off. The build quality is really great, feels very stable when locked in. Because the handle is a little smaller it is more portable for me. If you have a big bag, maybe not as big of a deal, but for me that little bit made a difference. This functions as expected and is a really smart accessory for the Insta360 x5 or other compatible ones.Note: This does NOT have a screw mount, only the x5 mount, so it does not work on my x3.

Wow - I haven't had a chance to use it yet, as I just opened the package a few minutes ago but... this is one of the nicest pieces of kit I have seen in a while. I am beyond impressed with the quality, fit, and feel of this selfie stick. When folded, it fits easily in the palm of your hand with the camera attached (I'm, using an X4 air), and would fit easily in a small bag, fanny pack, or even normal sized jacket pocket. It's everything I was hoping it would be- I"m very excited to try this out in the field. If you're on the fence I would absolutely recommend picking this up!
