70"/1.8m Aluminium Camera Tripod Compact Video Camera Tripod 15kg/33.07lbs Load Max Height Portable & Flexible M1+BH-35L
SKU: KF09.105
I had the opportunity to try this stand alongside its predecessor, the KF-M1+BH-35L, and immediately appreciated its improved stability, thanks to the enlarged sections of the tubes that make up the legs. Obviously, however, the weight also increases with increasing diameter, which is why plastic inserts were used to absorb the total weight. Plastic parts which, on the other hand, do not give the same feeling of solidity compared to the previous version. This also gains the ability to transform into a monopod, I didn't have to use it in this mode but no doubt it can be useful, especially when using heavy telephoto lenses.
Basically it is a good travel tripod that is worth the money.

Good tripod, great materials, looks sturdy.
I declare that I am speaking to you as a non-professional photographer because what I need is beyond my expectations.
Multiple standing and tilting options, even on uneven surfaces, equipped with a small level that is very practical. I was told by a professional photographer that at maximum draft, even on much more expensive tripods and reputable brands, it's normal for manual shooting to cause small vibrations, you'll need to switch to auto in those cases.
Recommended.

It's my 2nd tripod for the first summer, very light and I used it for my bridge. I've upgraded to a larger zoom SLR and have decided on a tripod that's better suited to the weight of my camera, but I didn't want to be too expensive. I really like this model, I take it with me every time I want to photograph landscapes or anything else, it's robust and well finished, professional and, moreover, it turns into a monopod when there's no more space for it Thanks to the ball joint, I can use my camera for bring more creative shots into different positions. Very happy with this purchase

Conclusion:
It is stable, has a good quality and the attachment for the mobile phone can be easily changed. If I want to take the tripod with me, it is also very suitable for transport. A remote control is also supplied. So far I am very satisfied and would recommend it to anyone looking for a good and inexpensive tripod.
First impression:
The workmanship of the stand is very good - especially for the price. I've run the stand on both the lowest and highest settings and it's absolutely fine in both cases. Nothing wobbles there.
setup and installation
Everything is actually very simple: set up the stand, adjust the legs and possibly adjust the "head" or the bracket - that's it.
Functionality:
The tripod is very stable, although I use the mobile phone, for example. tilt very far forward. Had some tripods that fell forward while doing so. The quality is right and the attachments are easy to change. The mobile phone or camera can be easily aligned and fixed very well.
Would buy again at any time.

Let's start from the beginning, the shipment arrived on time and the bag looks well made even with the shoulder strap. When touched, the tripod gives a very robust, very stable, but not too light impression (1,375 kg on the scales). As you can see from the photos, one leg can be unhooked using a rotating screw to create the monopod. The stops of the telescopic feet are very well made and make everything stable.
The quality of the product is unquestionable, it just gives the idea of well made.

First of all: I have been using the tripod mainly outdoors for about 2 weeks in combination with the Sony Alpha 6000 and a remote release. I am very satisfied, especially for the price a top tripod. It has replaced my old one, which was about 3 times as expensive.
- The load capacity of 5 kg is more than sufficient for camera + all common lenses.
- It is quick to assemble and disassemble and thanks to the built-in spirit level, it can be adjusted straight enough.
- The weight and compactness make it my favorite tripod for city trips and hiking.
- When it's windy, I hang a sack with stones on the tripod hook, which stabilizes it very well. Even when the tripod head is fully extended, it is still stable.
- The fixations all work perfectly.
- So far I have photographed 6 times in almost any weather for 1 to 2 hours and cannot give a long-term assessment. But so far everything is very stable, no signs of wear etc.
- Have also used it for star photography with the appropriate exposure time in light winds. No problem with the tripod.
- All in all, absolutely top at the purchase price of approx. 150 euros, can absolutely keep up with much more expensive tripods.

In general, I really like the tripod. For a really cheap price, it has a lot of features and is great value for money. The tripod is still very stable in all three height levels (I only tested it indoors) and adjusting the height is great, since you can only adjust the height of the camera itself, i.e. the tripod head, by a few centimeters.

The machine's "grip" on the ball rest is a bit uncomfortable. Some minor difficulties in taking vertical photos when the tripod is not level. In this case it is necessary to adjust the height of the legs to make the camera go vertical, if the "clamp" connecting the ball to the machine mount was a little longer shouldn't have been very precise when setting up the tripod plane. Definitely I would buy it again for the ease of use, the versatility, the weight and the results I've appreciated so far. up to 2 second exposure with slight camera wind, upside down and paws in the pebble bed in a creek, the photos are perfectly still.

I have used it at my local bog with an Olympus em1x and a 300mm pro lens and it holds the kit very well.
The ability to lay it flat is great for macro work.
Got this to replace my previous Manfrotto which finally broke after 5 years. I hope this will last that long.
