62''/158cm Aluminum Tripod Monopod with Quick Release Plate, Ball Head and Compact Travel Carrying Bag K254A1+BH-28L (old model SA254M1)

Only received this today so haven't been in the field with it yet but gave it a thorough examination indoors with my heavy pro type equipment.
Appearance is very good and quality seems high at this price point. The ball head has a very fluid smooth movement and panning is very nicely dampened. When all tightened up in position it seems very sturdy with no hint of a wobble.
Many adjustments to suit all shooting situations and light enough to carry up to my local mountains for some landscape shots ! A fraction of the price of some branded models but not far behind in quality at all.
So far so good !

I bought this few weeks ago and I absolutely love it. I ised it for few portraits and some long exposure fotos in the London nightsky.It is easy to set up at the required hight, very firm and solid and at the same time folds small and is not that heavy as it looks. It also has a small novel and a scale that will help with the panorama stitched images. And all of this for half the price of other brands.

Feels good .Monopod nice touch.

Value for money

Amazing quality its more like a very expensive tripod. very sturdy and light, 1 detachable leg witch u can use as a monopod, smooth ball head with bubble level, legs with clips for fast extending, hook to hang your bag.perfect size for travel, al in 1 im very inprest about it and this price

It’s a good size that extends to just under 6ft tail. Easy to carry and transport for hiking etc. Attached to my camera bag very well.

But expensive however we’ll see if it lasts. Taking it with me next week for a hiking weekend.

Sturdy,well built,well designed,compact , light and easy to use.
Translation of instructions to English quite entertaining but understandable, covered by the general disclaimer " hope the majority of user understanding "

The tripod is great perfect for travel and landscape photography. Steady in gale force winds and with bag attached stayed stable though storm winds great tripod.

K & F products first caught my eye at the Photography show back in 2019 but I didn't really have a close look at any of their tripods as I was fixated on getting a Three Legged Thing. As it turned out I didn't buy anything and didn't get a tripod for more than a year. With finances tight I decided to take a chance on a K & F tripod figuring at that price it wouldn't be too much of a wrench if it wasn't great. I was very pleasantly surprised when it arrived to find that it was more than I expected for the money - seemingly very well built and nice and light into the bargain with a quality carry bag. There are only two negatives in my mind - why use all that lovely magnesium alloy and then stick on plastic knobs for the ball clamp and adjustment? Surely it wouldn't have increased the cost too much to make these in the same alloy? The ball clamp did click ominously one time I tightened it so I'm hoping it isn't going to be a possible weak point. Also, the tripod leg that unscrews to make up the monopod - the female thread is metal but I believe the male thread is plastic, why? I doubt I'll use this feature much so not too much of a concern. I wouldn't hold out much hope with customer services - I did email them about something and had a very strange reply. I don't think I'd even bother trying to pursue a warranty claim. TLT on the other hand are great to deal with and solved a problem with my Ellie very quickly.
It would have been nice to have detachable feet but I guess you can't have everything at this price point? The tripod has a very large height extension so unless you're over 6' 5" you won't have any problems using it. Lastly I really like the orange colour of the alloy components - it matches my Three Legged Thing Ellie L bracket perfectly! I honestly don't think you can go wrong at this price - mine will certainly suit my needs until I can upgrade to a carbon TLT in the future.

I don’t often do product reviews, But if i buy something that im impressed with i think its worth helping others to take a closer look
