I’ve used a K&F Tripod for years, and I’ve really put it through the wringer. Recently I’ve been needing more versatility, and I needed to rig up more lights and mount my camera at unique perspectives.
So I went to K&F. There are a lot of ball arms out there, but this one is really well made. It’s sturdy and tough, all metal, and the tightening knob is made in a way that it’s easy to tighten the clamp right up.
The balls are grooved but smooth enough to make the arm easy to adjust but also stay in place easily. The extra threaded holes on the back side are very convenient as well.

This object helps stick things to my camera and it keeps them grounded to the camera with its high quality metals. I attach a light on the other end and it reaches far so it keeps things lit around me. I like the weight since it's pretty light but it's not low quality. The metals are nice and durable and they won't be wearing down anytime soon. It holds my phone securely and I don't feel it loose or anything like that. It is sturdy and it functions well for what I need it for. It's also versatile because it can be used for multiple things not just for a phone or a light. It can even carry a microphone if you need it to. I highly recommend this product, it's very useful and high quality.

This dual ball heads 'magic arm' by KF Concepts has a better feel and mechanism of other similar products I have tried in the past. The ball joints work smoothly and securely allowing me to have real control on video shoots.
The feel of the mount is smooth and lightweight aluminum which exudes quality. The single knob to lock everything in is a great feature. Recommend.

This is a beautifully engineered Magic Arm, that can be moved in almost any direction, but then instantly locked in the desired position, with just a single turn of the central Orange Adjustment Knob. That secures both Ball Heads simultaneously. The Dual Ball Heads are also serrated with a Non-Slip Tooth Pattern, so are resolutely disinclined to move once locked.

This is well-built, and the ball joints hold weight excellently. The 1/4-20 mounts do have a rubber grip to them, which helps hold your gear in place. At $13, it's not very expensive, and is very useful if you need to attach another piece of gear to your rig.
The one caveat is that this has no locator pins, so be mindful of where weight is positioned. If you have too much on the "loosen" side, the screw will loosen and your rig will fall over. If you're not loading it down with too much weight, though, it should be fine. It couldn't take my field monitor off to the side, but my field recorder was supported with no issues in any orientation.

This magic arm is a fantastic little accessory, solid, well-built, and incredibly versatile. The dual ball heads offer smooth 360° adjustment, making positioning super easy.
I’ve used it to mount my monitor and microphone, and it holds everything steady, the 1/4"-20 screw fits perfectly with most of my camera gear and accessories. It’s compact enough to toss in my bag, but strong enough to trust during shoots.
The aluminum alloy construction feels premium and durable. Great value for the price, K&F Concept nailed it with this one!

KNF concept dual quarter 20 inch adjustable bow mount for cameras or other photography and multimedia application. Full metal construction and nice size dials so you can really cramp down on it and get a very secure positioning that isn’t going to move. Pleased with the overall quality and value

I'm a little weary using these magic arms with the dual ball heads that use a rubber ring for staying in position. Most of my other magic arms use metal on metal connections and those usually work well but this seems to be a newer design that I hope is more reliable reducing vibrations and leading to less wear and tear on the metal parts. I haven't fully tested this K&F Concept Magic Arm to its limits but they make great products so I'm sure it will meet my needs.
K&F always delivers quality when it comes to hardware and this is no different. It's made with solid materials and the finish is excellent.

I really like nearly all K&F products. For this small magic arm setup I really like the shape and size of the screw for it. I have another by a brand I really like also, but by far if I only need one I am grabbing this only due to the screw. They both hold well, but the longer side on the screw makes it real quick and easy to adjust. The other has the typically knob that is the same size on both ends, but this being longer makes it easy to get some extra force quickly with minimal effort to loosen and tighten.

It can't get much better for a mount of this type. First off, all of it is aluminum. Even the 1/4-20 knobs. And I really like that the clamping knob is asymmetrical and a bit longer than what I normally see. But the best feature is that the heads are knurled with a texture so that they hold much more solidly than other ones I own. There is no slipping at all. The only "weak" point on this is that there are no locating pins. So you just have to be aware of the weight and angle of what you are mounting. With any mount like this you want to watch that the weight and angle of the load does not cause it to twist loose. You can really bear down on the knobs, but eventually this will weaken or smash the rubber pads.
Overall though, this was just right for attaching my Insta360 X5 to my Lumix S5IIX cage. Now I can get POV footage of my next photo walk.
Overall this is just what i expected from the quality of K&F. I really like what they are making, the engineering is thoughtful and the build quality is great. The finish on this part is a really nice matte black and deep orange. Plus K&F never has a surprisingly high price point. I think this part especially is an extremely good value.
