I have just received the tripod and haven't used it yet just gone through the motions of setting it up. First thing I found is the so called manual doesn't help a bit. I detached the monopod leg but the rhread on top is too big for the camera. After mucking around I found that the ball head unscrews disclosing a threaded piece that screws into the mono pod top complete with ball head to which the camera can be fixed via the quick release plate. I have always used a quick release plate on other tripods and have just ordered a spare for this one although at £19 is ridiculously expensive. Th extending arm is very useful for taking tabletop photos but I have found unless it is straight out it cannot be clamped tight and will flop down with the weight of the camera, That's the down side. The up side is that it is solid, can be extended to the height required easily, and seems it will satisfy all my needs. There is a utube video which helps a lot.

I've been thoroughly happy with my tripod, it's lighter, a little more compact and easier to work with than my existing tripod, which I will still use. I have one issue, the plate doesn't actually tighten enough to secure my Nikons but, I use my own plates. K&F have asked for a video of the problem which I'll happily supply, when I have the time

Tha build quality of this tripod is extremely good, in fact better than some twice the price. Finnish is black, and a beautiful metallic orange for the ball mount assembly. Love the overall finnish. Good sturdy tripod. Great value for money. Comes in sturdy carry bag. Very very pleased, and expecting it to last many years. Five stars. ☆☆☆☆☆

A very good tripod. The only downside so far is needing to keep the Alan key in my pocket as the part that holds the camera comes loose quite often and needs tightening to avoid excessive movement.

I really like this tripod is very stable and the horizontal arm is very handy.Another nice surprise was the extra hole on the side to put an extra monitor/light/flashReally recomended for now! the only downside is that is a bit heavy but for the size is not! really nice and recommended
