Have you been looking for a tripod to better match your fancy Sony Alpha mirrorless cameras? No? Well you should be ashamed of yourself. And I probably should be, too, but that's a matter for another day. K&F sent me their newest aluminum tripods to try out, and while they're not perfect, apparently they could be repurposed into a swing set. So there's that?
If you feel like picking one up:

I prefer snap locking legs because I can tell only by *looking* if a leg is not secured. My first tripod had twist-lock and drove me so crazy that I sent it back.

twist locks are far better in every way though. flip locks are weaker, and let dust and crud into the legs.

Interesting video. Although I am having a hard time absorbing your menthod of testing its stability by hanging off of it. I was actually looking forward to seeing how stable it actually is while panning. Also, is it suitable for a long exposure photography? Thanks!
@WesPerry
@WesPerry Год назад
It's incredibly stable for Everything. Altogether a very rigid tripod. Overkill for most. But not fantastic for panning. The pan function on mine has broken down over time and is no longer very smooth. Quite unfortunate.

Can the center column under the horizontal rotating column be taken off so that the horizontal column can get down close to the ground without the long column under the tripod?

Nice review, Wes! That K&F tripod looks more cost effective than the Manfrotto tripod I recently got. Question on the larger K&F tripod plate: Is the the quick release plate flat at the bottom where it attaches to the tripod head? When I say flat, I mean not having a ridge on one side the way my Manfrotto plate has. The Manfrotto quick release plate can only be correctly inserted in one direction but not the other due to the un-even ridge design at the bottom. That actually drives me a bit nuts every time I have to re-insert the plate to the tripod head with camera attached, especially when trying to do so in the dark. I'm guessing you know what I mean by the bottom un-even ridge design of the quick release plate on a Manfrotto tripod.
@WesPerry
@WesPerry 3 года назад
Oh I know what you mean. This is why I totally got rid of the Manfrotto plate on my manfrotto: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-V_0TvAHuKcU.html

I like that you have the quick release knob at the back of the camera so it's easy to use...too bad the front of the camera will block your spirit level mounted that way. Strange design, either you loose ease of use on the quick release knob, or you loose the level bubble.

I like the tripod except for one thing, the ball camera head. I find it moves ever so slightly when taking landscapes. I would prefer a much better head and I did purchase another head. I have been using a sigma 150-600 zoom and the head does not cope with heavy weights.
@WesPerry

Yeah the ball head is definitely the weakness here. My “good” ball head now is no longer smooth at all as well.

I have a 8 year old Induro CF tripod that a mouse nibbled away at one of the feet. Still works great and is TALL, like me, but there is a lower weight capacity. Ideally I would like to get another tall CF tripod, but the thought of spending $1000+ keeps me away.

Low-quality aluminum, faulty design, the locking device can't tightly lock up, the pole can't hold the camera steadily, called and emailed, they posted me some irrelevant shiity parts, totally not worth the money, customer service was terrible.
