Photography Boom Light Stands

Whether you’re shooting on location or in a studio, using light stands is crucial for photography and videography. It can hold lights, strobes, reflectors, and grids, among other things. This allows you to have more control over the lighting and how it can shape your scenes. Adorama offers a large selection of brands that you can choose from for your lights and modifiers.

Light Stands for Better Shaping & More Control

Every serious photographer needs a light stand. Along with lighting systems, you can use it for strobes, reflectors, grids, and other modifiers. If you shoot in a studio or on location, you’d immediately understand why it’s such an essential piece of equipment. 

Though there are many benefits of using natural lighting, it doesn’t always work for a particular shot or scene. The position or color temperature of natural light may not be appropriate for your shot. With light stands, you can use artificial lights and modifiers to achieve the perfect lighting for your image.

Providing Stability for Fixtures

Carrying the weight of your fixture is the main purpose of a lighting stand. The material used for it affects many aspects of its functionality. Its durability allows more weight to be mounted, while the thickness enables you to extend the height further.

Balance is another factor to consider when using light stands. These tools provide you the option to tilt and pan fixtures. The legs or base is used as a stabilizer for the stand so that you can set it up, along with the added boom arms, without throwing its balance off.
