My partner bought a tripod for our big heavy zoom lens, but when we tried it on, it wasn’t very stable with the weight being on front. So I bought this, it said can hold up to 8kgs. Until it arrived I didn’t even realised it was the same brand. It is much sturdier, and def can hold a big lens. Took it out on the weekend. Both, you can see on the picture the other smaller one is great with ‘normal’ weight lenses, but for a heavy lens def go for this tripod. We were on a marsh and even tho it was muddy it was sturdy. Did hang a weight ( backpack hey:) in the middle, but tried without it as well and it was stable. Very impressed! I was scared first as it is an expensive lens and heavy you have to be sure it’s stable in every situation. This one worked for me!

Value fir money... but still better than that!

Great build quality and amazing functionality, got this on sale and it was more than worth it.

My only complaint is even fully folded up it is rather bulky so it's not something I would bring with me around town on a walk especially if I already have my backpack and other camera accessories like my gimbal with me.

It's perfect though for astro as the stand gets high enough to be nearly my height plus another half and I'm over 6 foot 1 inches!

Extra tall and well made. This is my go to run and gun tripod.
Pros -
I like the leg clasps ( not twist grips)
Max height
Still folds to a compact size

Over the recent few months I have been getting increasingly into photography and videography. I have predominantly used my smart phone alongside a gimbal to start and improve the quality of my family videos and photos. Over this period I have also invested in a number of additions such as lights and microphones. Needless to say, on my Christmas list I have asked for an upgrade, a nice big expensive high-quality cameraIn anticipation of getting a new camera I have decided to invest now (whilst I have some spare cash) in accessories that will support me in the New Year. Although I have not yet got my new camera I have been able to make good use of these new items one of which was this quality tripod.The tripod comes well packaged in a fabric case which personally I always think speaks volumes about the quality. The case is slightly padded, to protect the tripod when being stored or transported.The tripod itself folds away very nicely and quite compactly. In order to use the functionalities of the tripod each of the legs foldout 180 degrees and then can extend an exceptionally long amount. I didn’t realise how long these legs would be when I bought this item, the tripod extends higher than me and I am almost 6 foot. When fully set up the tripod is a very sturdy and does not wobble, given that each of the legs can extend to different amounts this is ideal for uneven surfaces. The camera, or Gimble in my case, secures in by screw and there is also a levelling thing (I don’t know the name of them, but it has water in with a bubble to tell you if the camera is level). Finally at the very top is a ball and socket joint which lets you make any final adjustments that you would need to to your photography equipment.The tripod is very, very lightweight. It feels good quality, it looks good quality, and I would go to say, as an amateur, that the tripod feels like a premium product. I think for the price paid it is really good value and I would recommend this to people in a similar position to myself who are looking to buy a tripod.I have added a picture so that potential buyers can see how tall this thing actually is.

This really is a nice piece of kit and represents great value for money. I despair when I shop for tripods and see the astronomical prices asked for the better ones. I simply cannot afford top money. So when I came across the K&F range, I hoped their marketing claims were accurate. After watching a few reviews on Youtube I decided to purchase this model and I am glad I did. Light, sturdy and versatile it does the job for me.

Really great - thanks

I love this tripod, it comes in a nice and easy to carry bag, it's very compact, and the ball head is very sterdy and reliable.

You can also by attachment so you can even mount your mobile phone on to it.

Very good feature set for the price only time will tell how robustt it is. Copes easily with my 6 foot.

It really is that good. Look at all of the positive reviews for this tripod. It works supremely well. It's incredible.So many positives and no real negatives. The one complaint is that it does have a couple of cheaper looking and feeling plastic latches. But besides that it really is a great piece of equipment.This tripod feels the excellent quality the movement of the legs shows real quality of fabrication. Most importantly when you use it, it feels steady.It's a good weight, it doesn't feel like it will blow over, but it's not too heavy to carry.The 2m height adjustment is a bonus if you want to get some variation on angles and getting the full extension is hassle free and simple.K&F do great products. 100% recommended.Note.The tripod comes backed with 2-year warranty and 210-day money back and product replacement guarantee.
