The ball-head can then be attached to the monopod, giving you the functionality of a ball-head, as well as the quick release of your camera when required. A Monopod is ideal when maximum manoeuvrability and minimal weight is required, like when moving within crowds, hiking etc. It provides a stable, but mobile platform when shooting. This allows for lower shutter speeds on long focal-length lenses. A monopod also helps to relieve the weight and creates stability on larger heavier lenses.

The grippy, multifunction plate can be locked for use as either a regular quick release camera mounting plate or as a mobile phone clamp. The full length of Magic-Plate is a Arca-Swiss type design meaning it can be used as a full-size camera mounting plate in most K&F tripods. The large plate size, being larger than a tripods standard plate gives more stability to those larger camera bodies. An added advantage to the plate size is that there is adequate space to slide the plate in order to achieve that perfectly balanced camera. This is really functional when changing lenses and different sizes and weights are involved. Cleverly designed, the plate cannot slide completely through protecting your camera from falling.

The Carbon Fibre legs of the K&F tripod have 5 stages. They are extended through a sturdy twist lock system allowing for a quick and secure height adjustment. The spiral locking knobs are lined with grippy rubber. The clever system does not allow the leg to turn when tightening, so with a quick turn the legs are locked.

The legs also have the ability to open wide allowing you to get the camera closer to the ground. This function comes in handy when shooting landscapes with low foreground or a reflection in a pond.
