K&F Concept Phone Tripod &Selfie Stick Remote Ball Head Mini Stand 1/4'' Screw - Good, Within Limits
This is a review of the K&F Concept Phone Tripod & Selfie Stick with Remote, 360 Degree Rotation Ball Head with Cellphone Holder Mini Stand,1/4'' Screw Compatible with Smartphone/Camera/GoPro.
Most combined Selfie-Sticks / Tripods end up trying to be jacks of all trades, and end up not even succeeding in that regard, never mind being masters of none.
Nevertheless, this K&F works well within its limits, but with a couple of drawbacks.
I would recommend K&F Concept Phone Tripod & Selfie Stick Remote Ball Head Mini Stand 1/4'' Screw for use as a selfie-stick if you do not want / need to show the background behind you, or much of yourself other than your shoulders or your head.
As a more traditional table-top tripod [and it has to be a table-top tripod because it is not tall enough to be used if you put it on the ground], the K&F works for ‘phones and light weight cameras.
Recommended, but as a complement to other another tripod or more fully-featured selfie-stick.
PROS - WHAT I LIKED
1. Most of these selfie stick / tripods either have a mobile ‘phone holder, or a fixed 1/4 inch screw (mount for cameras), or both. Often, with only these two ways of mounting and moving a ‘phone or camera, it can be difficult to easily and smoothly position the ‘phone in exactly the position that you want to
But this K&F Concept Phone Tripod & Selfie Stick Remote Ball Head Mini Stand 1/4'' Screw has a ball head (rotates 360 degrees), which is very easy to use, and very, very useful
2. The K&F Concept ‘phone holder will (just) accommodate my Samsung S20 mobile ‘phone in its case [I measured the maximum width to be 8.3cm]
3. The Bluetooth remote shutter release works perfectly, for both still photos and for video
4. The tripod is light, and portable and compact, and feels comfortable when you hold it in your hand
5. The tripod works very well as a table-top tripod for a mobile ‘phone or camera [as long as you do not knock it off-balance - see note under ‘Cons’]
6. As a selfie-stick, the K&F works well if you have your back / outward facing camera set on your mobile ‘phone
CONS - WHAT I DID NOT LIKE
1. If using the K&F as a selfie-stick with the forward / inward facing camera, you can only see your upper shoulders and head [in still photo mode], and only your head [in video mode]
This is partly because the full extent of the selfie-stick [from the bottom of the hilt / grip, up to the end of the extension section just under where the camera is mounted] is only 54cm
2. Also, the design of the ball joint in relation to the telescopic extension section is such that you cannot tilt the ‘phone fully toward you [so that it would be parallel to you, and perpendicular to the ground]. If you were able to tilt the ‘phone like that, you would be able to see more of yourself in photo and video modes. This is not a good design
3. Even if you use a small, light DSLR [like my Canon M50 - SEE PHOTOS], putting that camera on the K&F Concept Phone Tripod & Selfie Stick when the selfie telescopic sections are extended fully [even if it is stationery, positioned on a table or the ground, with the legs open] is going to mean that the tripod could be easily overbalanced / knocked over
