The performance of a tripod mainly depends on four elements, including the stability, flexibility,portability,beauty of the tripod itself.for a comprehensive evaluation.How is the performance of the C80 tripod produced by Zhongshan KINGJOY photographic equipment Co., LTD? By trying out this product of C80,I will make an evaluating summary from these 4 respects below.
I.Stability.The stability of a tripod is particularly important.KINGJOY C80 tripod,with no middle column designed,there is a flange plate connecting with the tripod closely, which increases the max load of the tripod and makes the whole tripod more stable and durable.
Each KINGJOY C80 leg tube has 3 sections, because of the small sections,and the low gravity,which undoubtedly increases the stability of the tripod.When shooting,the working length of the tripod itself is 13-43cm,showing the flexibility, stability and rapidity of low position and low angle shooting that the general tripod cannot achieve.
In aspect of the leg tube material,KINGJOY C80 leg tubes are made of ten layers of high-density carbon fiber pipe,which is tough and light,and the effect of shock absorption is obvious.Leg tubes could be locked through the knob,the degree of locking firmness is strong,hold the tube by hand,the knob rotate for half circle,then the leg tube can be pulled out or locked,which is easy and convenient to operate. In addition,for each leg tube,it is provided with a screw type spiked feet on the bottom of it,could grip on soft ground perfectly.

Whether the quality of the head is excellent,or whether it can grasp the camera firmly is also very important for the shooting stability of the camera.KINGJOY C80 matches with G0 panoramic landscape ball head, the head body is smooth and fluent, the knob is free to loose or lock,and also attached with a groove,transforming horizontal or vertical shooting at any time.
The head is equipped with three lock knobs, one is the quick release plate lock knob,and the quick release plate is equipped with a safety non-slip buckle;another one is the ball head lock knob;There is also a pan lock knob  on the head. When putting the Canon 5D4 camera body and the wide-angle 16-35 lens into the test, the locking force of the three knobs was excellent and the shooting stability was strong.
Of course, this light-weight tripod is impossible to do everything,but there are advantages and disadvantages,for example, after installing Canon 5D4 camera and 70-200 telephoto lens on the holder, the camera turns sideways in the groove for vertical shooting, it will occasionally be loosen,and appear "nod" phenomenon after locking the holder, although under normal circumstances, there is no telephoto lens on this low,short and lightweight tripod, but it would be better if consider this particular need.

In addition,when shooting vertically in the head grooves,it would be better to pay attention to the position of groove export to align up and down with one of the leg frame,so that it can keep the stability of the tripod and the camera, if the groove position locates in the middle of these two leg tubes,then the camera on the groove may appears the phenomenon of unstable gravity and rollover from the sideways, it is worth to say that this kind of situation won't happen for horizontal shooting.


II.Flexibility. Flexibility is reflected in the head firstly.A good head stresses not only the fastening ability of locking,but also the flexibility,convenience and accuracy of adjustment,reduce the knobs most likely,operation simply.KINGJOY C80 tripod head is a ball head, only rely on a knob, you can adjust the camera shooting angle,which brings a lot of convenience. The lock of the head has good bite ability with the matched weight camera.
Secondly,the flexibility is reflected in the tripod in the process of extending and tightening it. The tripod needs to be extended, closed, locked and adjusted at various angles over a long period of time.KINGJOY C80 tripod has a quick release device on the base of the tripod for change the camera easily. The flexibility of C80 tripod is also reflected in the low position shooting, as long as pull out the three black buckles on the top of the three leg tubes directly,the tripod length can be instantly converted from high to low, the minimum length of the tripod itself is only 13cm. When the tripod length needs to switch from low to high,as long as fold the tripod and then extend it, the black buckle will automatically lock the foot tube. When the tripod is closed, it can be folded and extended freely. The foot tube can be locked or loosened as long as it is rotated for half a circle. It is convenient to use.
Of course, the KINGJOY C80 tripod also needs to be improved.For example, when shooting with Canon 5D4 camera body and 16-35mm camera shot, although there are two bubble levels on the tripod,but if the camera body is turned over to the groove of the head for vertical shooting, both of the levels are found to be turning over in one side at the same time,so it cannot be used.Of course, you can change the mounting direction of the quick release plate at the bottom of the camera, and change the horizontal shooting to vertical shooting can solve this problem. However, for chasing better shooting effect, it is suggested that the manufacturer add another bubble level on the left side of the based plate to form three bubble levels, which can be more convenient for shooting. Of course, when shooting with a telephoto lens, two levels are sufficient to use,since the quick release plate on the bottom can remain in the vertical position without blocking the level (when using a wide-angle lens may happen).


III. Portability.The portability of a tripod is important,as photographic activities often involve in hiking across mountains and rivers,and usually walking for long distances and periods of time in fields or villages.The tripod on the market at present,commonly divided into 3 kinds of materials as magnesium aluminium alloy, titanium alloy, carbon fiber. From the perspective of portability, aluminum magnesium alloy is generally bulky and inconvenient to carry, titanium alloy belongs to the middle range, carbon fiber material is lighter than the front two, which is the choice of the vast majority of photography enthusiasts at this moment,of course the price is higher.The portability of KINGJOY C80 tripod is particularly perfect:One point is light, C80 tripod weighs only 1000 grams, even for the long distance trip,it is not too heavy.Secondly, the length of the tripod is only 29cm after folding, which is very convenient to carry. It can be directly put into the camera bag, or put it into the 20-inch suitcase casually,also it can be carried to take the plane.

IV. Beauty. Photography is an art, and people can produce aesthetic feeling is one of the basic characteristics of art. Photographic equipment is not only a practical tool, the highest state of a photographic equipment, is the perfect combination of practicality and beauty of the art. If the equipment is only beautiful but not practical, that is an embroidered pillow,which is useless; But if it is both practical and beautiful, it will make the users delightful, even if there is a burden, but also feel happy. So whether the design is  dexterous and whether the workmanship is excellent are worth our consideration.
KINGJOY C80 is quite perfect in appearance, the whole tripod looks small and exquisite, delicate and tough, wins a lot of photographers heart. A touch of trademark Chinese red on the leg tube can catches users eyes naturally.The leg tube uses both the material of aluminium alloy and carbon fiber, with gray color as the main tone, the silver gray on the alloy and the black gray on the carbon fiber tube complement with each other,looks with no conflict and perfect.There are patterns on the carbon fiber tube,these details on the tripod give people a sense of low-key and elegance.The stereo feeling of this tripod is strong, but not clumsy, and the hand feeling is great,which is non-slip and comfortable.
In a word,KINGJOY C80 tripod,with beautiful and fascinating outlook, light and portable,easy to carry,which can make up for the functions of some common long tripods. Especially in low position,for low angle shooting, as well as outdoor or travel shooting time,usually the photographer need to carry a lot of tripods,C80 tripod will get more favors because of its portability and dexterity.In addition, there are screw holes on the flange plate below the tripod head, which can also be used to connect with an external phone, fill light lamp or safety rope. It is indeed a good helper for photography lovers.鏉ユ簮锛鍔叉嵎涓夎剼鏋|www.cnkingjoy.com
