Testing
With the bottom spring-loaded hook removed and the top nut loosened, the main beam can be removed from the tripod. This is important as the beam can be installed from the bottom of the tripod body, and thus have the camera inverted for close up photography.
In terms of the build quality, the tripod uses both aluminum and a magnesium alloy in its construction. The plastic usage is kept to a minimum and is found on the leg’s quick release clips and on the tripod head.
There are some imperfections present, but only on the plastic components. These look to be left from the manufacturing process, and will not affect the functionality of the tripod in any way.
Thanks to the way the legs are attached to the tripod body, and the wide angles possible, the tripod can be setup low to the ground with the legs wide. This configuration offers a better overall stability.
Final thoughts
The K&F Concept TM2324 tripod is available for around 70 USD or EUR on the K&F website or for an odd reason, 89 USD or EUR on Amazon. For this price, the KF-TM2324 offers plenty of features for both photography and video.
The tripod base and legs are solid and offer a stable base for cameras with a total weight of up to 10kg. In addition, the wide angle possible with the rotation of the legs is a great feature to have, not only to use multiple configurations with the tripod but also to reduce its footprint when in storage or traveling.
The ball head included is good enough for amateur level photography and offers a good base for your camera, as well as plenty of flexibility in terms of movement. However, the top plate and top plate mechanism are made from plastic which have a certain degree of flexing especially with heavier cameras.
In conclusion, the K&F Concept TM2324 tripod is a good choice for everyone that is looking for a lightweight yet solid tripod. The build quality is good, especially around the legs and tripod body areas. The price can be good, however it appears that it varies based on the availability of the product.
