Great tripod for the price. Love the fact it can turn into a monopod. Comes with a sturdy bag as well, go for it!

The unit seems well built and will support my heavy lens and camera with a sm ll margin of safety, about 10% The lower section of legs seem a bit small but there is really no kneed to extemd them more than about a third for my use. The head works really well. For me there are two features that it is unlikely I will ever use, that being the monopod as if I am planning to use a mono pod that is what I will carry and the ability to reverse the center column , not my cut of tea. all in all very please with the unit.

Geliefert wird das Stativ in einem stabilen Karton, der auch die ein oder andere "rustikalere" Behandlung wegsteckt. Das Stativ selbst liegt in der Tragetasche, eingewickelt in eine Plastikhülle wobei der Fluidkopf zusätzlich mit einer Luftpolsterfolie versehen ist. Beigepackt findet man einen ansprechend langen und verstellbaren Schulterriemen, der an der Tasche angebracht werden kann. Weiter sind beigelegt ein Imbusschlüssel (den man zum Umbau zum Einbeiner benötigt) und eine Kurzbedienungsanleitung in chinesischer und englischer Sprache und ausreichend bebildert.Wobei man die eigentlich gar nicht so richtig benötigt. Wer schon einmal mit einem Stativ gearbeitet hat wird dieses intuitiv begreifen und bedienen können. Gleiches sollte auch dem Anfänger gelingen, denn man kann im Grund nichts verkehrt machen.Die Feststeller für die Beine greifen sicher zu, die Feststellmechanik für den ausziehbaren Teil hält das Rohr bombenfest. In den Gummifüßchen "versteckt" zum rein- und rausdrehen die Metalldornen für den Einsatz auf etwas felsigerem Untergrund oder in ähnlichem Gelände.Das Stativ macht einen soliden Eindruck, wackelt nicht (und wenn doch hat man irgendeine Schraube vergessen mit der Hand anzuziehen ;) ) und ist auch als Begleiter auf Wanderungen durchaus noch akzeptabel.Was mich besonders beeindruckte war die perfekte Abstimmung des Fluid-Kopfes. Der läßt sich mit sanftem Fingerdruck in jede gewünschte Richtung führen und hält dort, wenn man die Kamera oder den Camcorder auf der Wechselplatte zumindest halbwegs ausgewogen ausgerichtet hat, ohne Nachgeben an. Der erste Einsatz bei einem Orgelkonzert in einer Kirche wurde so auch für den Kameramann ein Erlebnis, da nach Kamerafahrten keinerlei Nachjustieren mehr nötig war: Loslassen und es bewegte sich nichts mehr.Ganz ehrlich: Ich war dumm, dieses Stativ mir nicht schon längst angeschafft zu haben.Kaufempfehlung? Ja, absolut: Schnell im Auf- und Abbau, mehr als ansprechende Verarbeitungsqualität, absolut angemessener Preis. Es hat sich echt gelohnt.

This is a perfectly solid tripod that folds up nice and small. All of the material is metal and the color scheme is refreshing to me. I like that even the handle is smaller while still being useful. Everything about this exudes usefulness and practicality while having a high level of quality.

Much sturdier than a flimsy, portable tripod/selfie stick combo. Has many adjustment options including height, tilt, swivel, quick release plate, portable, etc. Easy to attach a camera to the release plate. I have an accessory (purchased separately) that also lets me attach a phone. The tripod design allows for pretty substantial stability… I don’t have a long lens to test with it, but it feels stable. Easy to collapse and store in the nice provided carry case.Some little nitpicks… the clips that loosen/tighten to lengthen or shorten the legs feel a little cheap (the plastic) – maybe they are better than what they feel… we’ll see how they hold up.The directions for how to take off the monopod aren’t super clear… basically one of the legs comes off and you can remove and fasten the top of the tripod to the monopod (leg).The first time I attached a camera, a small piece of the rubber broke off the very easy to use quick release plate – I hope this was just an anomaly.Overall, I like the tripod, even with some of its shortcomings. I wouldn’t call it a professional grade solution, but for a home hobbyist like me, it does everything I need.

As others have noted, this is one heck of a solid tripod, even if it's — gasp! — made in China. It's heavy enough not to shake, but not so heavy that it's annoying to carry.It has the usual bells and whistles you'd expect, and the motion is fluid. The drawback, though, is that the adjustment handle is only for positioning the camera — you don't turn it to loosen the head.That means you have to loosen the correct know for to allow tilting or panning, and there are a LOT of knobs because you can also raise or lower it. It sounds like a small complaint, but in the field you'll find a lot of fussing — "Is it this knob? Is it that?" — and wondering why the handle doesn't do anything.All that said, once you get used to dealing with the complex 'interface,' it's a fine bit of kit. But I think the engineers need to redesign those features.

not the lightest, but for the price its a pretty good value I'd say. the fluid head is very smooth and seems to be very sturdy overall.

This tripod works great and the fluid head is smooth. This is a very sturdy tripod. It is almost entirely made out of Aluminum and is pretty light. It comes with a nice bag that is made well. This tripod is very compact and folds down smaller than any other tripod that I own. I like that this can turn into a monopod, although it isn't the fastest thing to setup. The feet have metal spikes on them to better anchor the tripod, but it also has rubber feet you can unscrew to cover the spikes so you don't damage floors.Overall, this is a versatile tripod that is very compact and very sturdy.

This is a review for the 83 inch version.The tripod inside the included bag measures 20 inch long. It's not the smallest tripod as there are many shorter tripods on the market, but being 20" folded and reaching 83" height expanded is very versatile.The tripod's construction is average for this price range. The tripod legs lock via snap closure instead of rotating, which helps easily distinguish whether the legs are properly locked or not.The tripod head is pretty good considering its price and small size. The rotation is decently smooth.The tripod legs feel very sturdy considering its price. I've seen some more expensive tripods with flimsier legs.Lastly, the tripod bag is well made and padded, which is a pleasant surprise.Overall this is an excellent tripod if you want something affordable yet has a tall maximum height.The

Ease of Use: Setting up the tripod is quick and straightforward. The leg locks are secure and easy to operate, and the adjustable centre column adds flexibility. However, stability becomes a concern when the tripod is fully extended, especially in windy conditions or with heavier cameras. There is a noticeable wobble, and it can be tricky to get a steady shot without additional stabilization. The tripod supports up to 5 kg, but it performs best with lighter cameras. My mid-range DSLR is fine, but anything heavier might compromise stability.Conclusion: The K&F Concept 83 inch/211 cm Tripod is a great option for those using lightweight DSLRs or mirrorless cameras, particularly if you need a portable travel solution. It offers good value for the price, but be cautious if you plan to use it at full extension or with heavier equipment. For heavier setups or if stability is a top priority, you might want to consider a more robust tripod.I'll give it a 4****. Its mabe alitte too exspenceve at £90. But if you're travelling this might be perfect for you.
