K&F Concept64 inch/163cm Camera Tripod, Lightweight Aluminum Travel Outdoor Tripod with Ball Head Load Capacity 8kg, Phone Holder, for DSLR Cameras O2341A1+BH-36

I bought this to use with my Ugo plein air easel. I needed something light, portable, sturdy, ball head, quick release plate. Ugo make an easel to go with the easel which is a lower spec from what I can tell and is £100 more. I came across this brand when researching suitable easels. There were too many to choose from. I didn’t need the top of the range for my purposes. It supports 20KG which is what swung it for me (and the price). It’s extremely sturdy. The lock mechanism for the angle of the legs is superb and keeps it rigid. The hook on the bottom will be handy on windy days if needed. I’m nearly 6ft and there is ample height. It looks great and even comes with a carry bag. I very nearly decided against the expense of another tripod and was going to use my existing vanguard but this is 100 times better for stability.

A very stable tripod and very reliable. Definitely worth the money. It’s very easy to use, fits my camera perfectly, it’s very functional for all terrain, can be put up and taken down in no time, and the removable central pole design makes it very useful for macro photography

Good, compact tripod, with solid build quality. A little confusing to set up to start as does not come with instructions.

The tripod can surprise you on how much weight it can actually handle and the functionality of it. It's super easy to set up. Usually very quick to get going with it. I tend to use it for my camera rig for when I shoot stills or shots that don't require camera movements. The material and the quality feels well made. Adjustments are good too. I do sometimes wish it was a tad bit taller but it's fine for majority of the work. Great price too!

Used this on many occasions from practice shots in the garden to filming out on location - even when more expensive tripods were available I opted for this due to convenience and light weight. Not as stable as full professional set up but for most use cases a great option for stills and video. Had it a a few years now and still like new.

The design is very good: it takes a lot less space than some other well-known tripods.We like that it comes with a phone holder: makes it more versatile and gives more flexibility towards use.Height is reasonable. The plastic used is of high quality and not too soft or brittle.Overall we are very happy with quality, functionality and how small it is when bagged.

Brilliant tripod the stability is great. the height it can go is insane almost as tall if not taller than me and I'm 5ft 10. It packs down and fits in a carry bag making it easier to carry, the adjustment clips are a little stiff, Ball joint is Brilliant some reviews say its plastic but mine was metal. You can turn the centre upside down and take photos from a really low angle and the let's can be spread wide in windy conditions. Feels well made and light weight.

Heavy duty material tripod with quality build to it. Good and adjustable features to cater for different angles. Only downside was that a centre column to make the tripod fold vertically was not in this tripod, however well worth the price for this item.
