So, I had to send the first one back. The centre column was not straight. In fact it was quite a way from being plumb. I checked all the locking nuts etc, even measuring the individual legs but no, it was defective. When the centre column was extended and the large orange locking nut was tightened, it pulled the column to one side. It was also noticeable when not extended. Not want you want with a tripod.
Not a good start but with good customer service from Amazon, I obtained a refund and ordered another. This time success!
This is a great tripod. The photo's of it are accurate. It feels good and it looks good. It has a good 'weight' to it and does appear to be well made. The ball head clamp tightens up well and there is no movement. Same with the legs, the lever locks are very good and once locked off there is no movement. An Allan key is provided to tighten up the bolts should the need arise.
I'm glad I wasn't put off by my first experience with this tripod. I have confidence in this tripod with my expensive gear on top!

I love this tripod. It will provide everything that possibly needs to be done with a tripod. The horizontal bar adapts to all types of photography styles. I recommend buying this tripod.

Not the lightest one out there but I needed something that my Canon 1d Mk Iv and the 70-200 or 150-600 lenses could mount on and not topple. This tripod is up to the task. My combo weighs in at nearly 4kg and this tripod should take 10kg apparently. I like the way it can convert to a monopod too and the ball joints are a boon for quick role changes. Sturdy, well built and looks good too!

Nice solid product with plenty of adjustment. Top part of centre column adjusts so that it pivots horizontally ideal for mounting my astronomical binoculars,enabling a seated position to be taken.

Fantastic features and value at the price. This is the second K&F Concept tripod I've bought for different purposes and I've been delighted with them both.
