K F CONCEPT Camera Tripod 75 Lightweight Portable Travel Outdoor DSLR Tripods for Camera Phone Video Recording Tripod

AMAZING! Got this for my boss to make video messages to the company. It's so much taller (he's prob 6'1"~) than the other one we had, and the universal shoe meant he could still use the selfie circle light no problem. It was easy to set up and feels sturdy - NOT CHEAP - like it would fall over with the wind with my simlarly priced previous one. The bag is actually pretty nice with a decent zipper and not-ugly or totally random sounding branding on it, and I got this on a big sale so the under $30 price tag is incredible and frankly brought my attention to this item. It's a sea of tripods on Amazon otherwise! BTW the remote control is bluetooth. I did NOT NEED TO INSTALL ANY APPS Yay! and it worked perfectly with the iPhone for both camera and video the first time around. The instructions did say if it isn't compatible to download the "Camera 360" app. Notes in case you lose the little instruction sheet and aren't familiar with bluetooth pairing: Step 1, Pairing: A. Turn the remote on withthe power switch located at the side. The blue LED light will flicker. B. Turn on your phone's Bluetooth setting & connect to "Sensyne" in the available devices list. The blue LED light will stop flickering when connected. Step 2, Using: Open your phone's camer app. Press the button associated with your phone's operating system... NOTE: If your camera does not respond it may not be compatible......download "Camera 360..." Step 3, Filming Videos: Switch yoru phoen's camera into Video mode first. Prese the button to start/stop recording videos. Note for Samsung Cell Phones: 1. Go to camera setting scroll down and tap "volume keys function" and choose "record video." 2. Open the native camera, click the iOS button (not android) to start the video, click again to stop the video. Read more

I have been using this tripod for about a month. Not being someone who uses a tripod a lot I decided to Give this tripod a go. I am not one to mince words and will give an honest review of this product. First thing is that K&F always seems to put out quality products for the price and this tripod is no exception. In the box: Tripod Phone Holder Camera adapter Blue tooth camera controller Pros: -Well built for the price. I have thrown this tripod in back of the car and it seems to be able to take the abuse. -Several nice accessories that help with attaching any type camera or phone you may own. -Sturdy! I have placed my heavy DSLR on this tripod and it holds it with no problem. Minimal shake if any at all. -Easy extendable legs! I have had the type that use the twist type and they always seem to fail at some point. This tripod has the locking type which allow for a variety of heights and also the piece of mind it will not slip on you. -Crazy tall. At 75 inches completely extended it definitely helps with any shot you are looking to get. -Even though this tripod is extremely tall it is made to be small and compact when stored. It is also very light for the size -Foam grips near tripod head on legs make this easy to carry and move around when extended. -Phone holder does a good job although may be a little big but it will definitely hold any size phone you have or small tablet. -The bluetooth remote paired with my phone very easily. I have an old S21+ and it worked flawlessly with the that phone. I have yet to try it with my DSLR. Cons: -At full extension it can have a little vibration but putting a camera bag on the center hook seems to alleviate the issue for the most part. Definitely not a deal breaker for me as the fact that it is this tall for the price definitely out weighs any negative effect. I never felt like it would topple over even in heavy wind conditions or unlevel surfaces. -Phone holder is huge but I understand that as it is made to hold a variety of devices. That is about it. For the price and what you get, this tripod is kind of a no brainer. The fact that K&F makes it is one plus you can not discount. I know for a fact they stand behind their products. So if you are looking for a great tripod that doesn't break the bank and gives you quality usability of a much more expensive tripod then this is the one for you. Read more
