In a sea of C stands etc. and battling name brands, this company has never disappointed and this stand is top notch - spring loaded safety drops surprised me! All fittings and tensions and thinking of the straight and boom configuration has leveraged other industries innovations, notably the drum equipment stand world etc. The quick adjust main angle handle is a pro touch. I never rate or review ever, this stuff changes the game at this price point, it's not cheap cheap but it's a thing you get more value for the price. And you will want 3-4 of these hanging around for weird needs and uses. Thanks Newer and seller!

Pleased with this purchase, good to have a multi-purpose Light Stand.

I need a good sturdy stand for a hair light or a sometimes a boom light. This one is perfect for that. I do add a sand bag or two on the bottom of the stand to be on the safe side.

After searching for a while for a decent drum overhead microphone stand for home recording and not finding anything reliable under the 200$ price point I decided to look for another solution. Ended up light stand 3/8" thread are the same as those on microphone stands. This Neewer Light stand easily holds in place my two AT2020 on a stereo bar above the kit without any chance of sagging since the angle lock has teeth. I can't tell about stability if used for its real purpose but it's rock solid as a mic stand!

Have owned this tripod for about a year now and am about to pick up a second one. No issues whatsoever.It's sturdy and the counterweight makes it great for long-boom type situations. I've used it for overhead lighting, overhead cameras (for example with a product on a table and you need 'elbow room') and with the right adaptor would make a great overhead mic stand. Great piece of kit.

We used small sand bags but only to error on the side of caution. These stands, we purchased two are so light weight and easy to move. It speed up our production immensley!

I was skeptical because of the price. I already ordered other ones thinking they’d be fine for the cheap price they were, but quickly realize… “NO.”This stand works well and is solid!!I don’t have a clue it looked up what people out in the weight bag. I know they said sand? But I just took the small weight bricks out of my weighted workout vest. Have never looked up prices but I’d say that’s a good tip.

Davvero un gran bel prodotto . Si intuisce già dalla foto la qualità intesa come robustezza e funzionalità. Ogni elemento tubolare ha al suo interno una molla ammortizzatore per gestire al meglio la calibratura e le manovre di azione delle varie parti . Intelligente la parte principale dell'asta con il foro a L per posizionare il dispositivo ( camera, faretto o altro ) in modalità diritta o ad angolo 90°.la ghiera per il bloccaggio e robusta e dentellata per una piu' precisa regolazione .

I already own several of Neewer's C-Stands and also some lightweight Cowboy Light Stands. I LOVE the versatility and sturdiness of the C-Stands but I had a specific lighting need to supplement my studio, and the Cowboy stands were not cutting it. However, I did not want to spend the same dollar amount as the C-Stands.So I took a chance on this half-as-expensive Light Stand. I needed both height and a boom arm.So, for the most part, I was pleased with what I got. The actual boom and stand is very heavy duty but the legs are not as great as a C-Stand. HOWEVER, I could compensate for the stability with two sandbags (the unit comes with only one and no sands or rocks). One sandbag on the end of the boom and then another weighing down the base. Problem solved.The other "issue" is that this 2-in-1 is more like one or the other . . .not both. Yes, if you combine both poles, this thing is TALL . . .9 feet is higher than my ceiling. But if you want to use the boom, the main support is only about 4 feet (which is stated) and then the boom extends out. This was the config I needed to get my light 7.5 feet off the ground and "leaning" into the scene. For me PERFECT but your needs may vary.Still for the price, it is flexible in the config and with the sandbag placement, perfect for many scenarios. (However, if you can afford twice the price, look at the C-Stands)

I second guess this stand until it arrived. Extremely sturdy and very well built. I thought it was gonna be a thin and chinsy stand, it’s not. It’s solid!

Un pied girafe est toujours très intéressant quand on fait du studio.Celui-ci répond à ce que l’on en demande : facile à mettre en œuvre, bien fini et modulable.La qualité de finition est bonne même si au niveau peinture il y a quelques manques dont on se moque.Les vis de blocages se manipulent facilement et le serrage est efficace.La crémaillère semble un peu légère mais fait son office. Manipulée plusieurs fois y compris à charge elle ne se dérègle pas. A voir avec le temps si elle s’use vite ou pas.L’extrémité de la perche dispose d’un embout avec deux pas de vis (1/4 et 3/8 de pouce) qui peut lui-même être installé selon 2 axes. On trouve son bonheur pour installer n’importe quoi.Le mat de pied ainsi que la perche bénéficient d’un amortisseur qui évite que le mat se cogne au fond quand on le descend un peu brusquement ou quand la perche est utilisée en position verticale, ce qui est très pratique et prévient les chocs si le matériel monté en bout de perche est un peu lourd et fragile (lampes chaudes).J’ai adapté un ensemble flash + bol beauté + grille nid d’abeille d’un poids de 3.1 kilos et étendu la perche comme le montre la photo. Ca fait le job mais on arrive aux limites question poids. En effet, la perche tend à plier légèrement et devient de ce fait difficilement manipulable en longueur du fait du frottement induit par la tension si on ne lève pas un peu le matériel en bout. Hors de question donc de s’en servir pour du matériel très lourd avec l’extension maximum.Autre défaut inhérent à ce type de matériel : le porte à faux et la stabilité. Pour le porte à faux j’ai mis 3.9 kilos de sable dans le sac de contrepoids. On peut mettre plus mais cela ne modifiera pas les qualités de résistance de la perche. Inutile d’aller au-delà des capacités du matériel. Pour la stabilité le trépied est limite et il faut bien mettre une des trois pattes à l’opposé du sac de sable, sinon l’ensemble est instable et peut basculer aisément. Pour plus de sureté un sac de sable supplémentaire directement sur le pied amènerait plus de sécurité pour le matériel.Perso je suis satisfait et je recommande ce matériel à qui travaille avec des éclairages légers, comme les leds. Pour des éclairages lourds il faut se tourner vers du matériel plus conséquent en dimension et donc en prix…
