Revainrating 5 out of 5

Sturdy and outperforms my other tripods!

This is the tallest, most durable tripod I've ever bought for shooting outdoors. Since the photos and descriptions on the product page are detailed and show what the tripod is capable of, I will focus on the un-highlighted features and characteristics that I love about the K&F S210 Concept tripod. This tripod includes the pan head KF-28. and holds my Sony AIII mirrorless camera with a long G telephoto lens attached. The 1/4" screw in the Swiss Arca quick release plate fits all my previous mounting adapters. The wide and thick tubular metal legs even allow me to hold the camera almost to the ground by the long legs thanks to the red color. Spring-loaded regulators off Metal. This tripod uses metal components except for the rubberized texture on the legs for the twist-lock mechanism. It's comfortable and provides support for quick setup, and the foam-coated leg can be pivoted to form a tripod with an extension tube. These leg extension mechanisms do not engage like traditional plastic clips on cords or clothing. For storage and portability, it folds up to 20" and weighs just over 4 pounds. This tripod can be stowed in a backpack or hung outside. Most tripods give an inferior bag made of flimsy fabric with a small brittle zipper and an uncomfortable strap. Since K&F Concert Concept also makes high-quality photo backpacks (I can speak from experience as I own one of their backpacks), the company offers you an amazing tote bag that costs $30 alone. The bag has a durable exterior and thickly padded surfaces hidden between a thick gray fabric layer and an inner black nylon that's easy to clean when it gets dirty from the tripod legs. On the top of the bag is an inch wide reflective strip that runs around the bag. I didn't know about it until I got to an evening shoot and the light caught the bag.

Pros
  • Multi-Angle Shooting: Center column can be turned upside down for low-angle shooting; The ball head cushioning system makes it easy to mount the camera at different angles (vertical shooting or upward shooting) or provide the best view when shooting.
Cons
  • New Competitors Arrive
