Grip forms the foundation for well-functioning studio environments\u2014from C-stands, light stands and clamps to boom arms, shot bags, telepoles and more\u2014these tools ensure that your equipment is stable and adaptable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Explore the following grip and their functions listed by category, along with links and purchase information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">C-Stands<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A C-stand is among the most versatile tools for stabilizing lights, cameras, and modifiers such as soft boxes and reflectors. Its unique three-legged base allows for easy &#8220;nesting&#8221; of stands on set. Some versions offer a sliding leg for stability on uneven surfaces and easy positioning over obstacles. Consider using a C-stand to hang lights out of the frame or secure flags or reflectors to direct light. You can even mount microphones or other related equipment at tricky angles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Available on the Adorama site in both 20-inch and 40-inch sizes. Each size delivers the same functionality, but their different sizes make them suitable for distinct uses. Also, consider the turtle base C-stand, which has a removable base that allows for quick setup and breakdown. The base can be adapted to be used as a stand, making it ideal for low-to-the-ground mounting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">20-Inch C-Stands<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Flashpoint 20\u201d Quick-Sliding Leg C-Stand Kit with Grip Head &amp; 20\u201d Arm<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>This compact 20\u201d stand is ideal for low-height setups like tabletop photography or smaller modifier placements where equipment needs to be positioned in confined spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"FPLSCL20K\"  class=\"west_sku_post\" data=\"FPLSCL20K\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div id=\"FPLSCL20KB\"  class=\"west_sku_post\" data=\"FPLSCL20KB\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">40-Inch C-Stands<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Flashpoint 40\u201d Quick-Sliding Leg C-Stand Kit with Grip Head &amp; 40\u201d Arm<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The 40\u201d C-stand offers additional height, making it suitable for larger or more complex lighting setups, full-body portraits, and overhead lighting. The longer arm provides greater reach, keeping gear out of frame or positioned at unique angles.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"FPLSCL40K\"  class=\"west_sku_post\" data=\"FPLSCL40K\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div id=\"FPLSCL40KB\"  class=\"west_sku_post\" data=\"FPLSCL40KB\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Turtle Base C-Stands<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Flashpoint 20\u201d Quick Release Turtle Base C-Stand Kit with Grip Head &amp; Arm<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>With a detachable low base (known as the turtle base), this C-stand allows for quicker setup and tear down between shoots and is ideal for tight or low-angle setups in confined spaces, i.e. tabletop shoots.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"FPLSCT20KB\"  class=\"west_sku_post\" data=\"FPLSCT20KB\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div id=\"FPLSCT20K\"  class=\"west_sku_post\" data=\"FPLSCT20K\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Flashpoint 40\u201d Quick Release Turtle Base C-Stand Kit with Grip Head &amp; Arm <\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>While both the 20\u201d and 40\u201d versions feature turtle bases for low center of gravity and solid stability, the 40&#8243; stand will handle slightly heavier modifiers or equipment on its arm and even better reduce the risk of gear tipping over. &nbsp;<strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"FPLSCT40K\"  class=\"west_sku_post\" data=\"FPLSCT40K\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div id=\"FPLSCT40KB\"  class=\"west_sku_post\" data=\"FPLSCT40KB\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Studio Essentials<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To keep a studio well-organized and enhance its functionality, certain accessories are vital. The following contribute to a smoother workflow and help keep equipment both safe and accessible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/glsbp6r.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Glow SBP-6R Magnetic Seamless Paper Rack<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n<div id=\"GLSBP6R\"  class=\"west_sku_post\" data=\"GLSBP6R\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>This wall-mounted storage system keeps seamless paper backdrops organized while its magnetic feature allows for the quick switch out of backdrop rolls during fast-paced photoshoots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/fplslpbl.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Flashpoint Light Stand Leg Protector, Blue, 3-Pack<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n<div id=\"FPLSLPBL\"  class=\"west_sku_post\" data=\"FPLSLPBL\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>These covers protect light stand legs and studio floors, provide good grip on slippery surfaces, and serve as insulation in extreme temps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/fpsjba.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Flashpoint Swivel Junior to Baby Adapter<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n<div id=\"FPSJBA\"  class=\"west_sku_post\" data=\"FPSJBA\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Designed to convert mounting sizes between fixtures, the adapter lets you use available stands even if you don&#8217;t have the appropriate size pin receiver. The rosette mechanism lets you set tilted angles in 30-degree steps (super handy for switching from horizontal to vertical without barndoors or soft boxes getting in the way).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/fpab41.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Flashpoint 4-In-1 Nesting Apple Box Set<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n<div id=\"FPAB41\"  class=\"west_sku_post\" data=\"FPAB41\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>With heights from 1&#8243; to 8\u201d, this set is ideal for lifting equipment or even as quick seating for crew members (at full height).

They can also stabilize props or secure cables to prevent tripping hazards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/fpdcbps.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Flashpoint Drop Ceiling Scissor Clamp with Baby (5\/8&#8243;) Pin<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n<div id=\"FPDCBPS\"  class=\"west_sku_post\" data=\"FPDCBPS\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>This clamp attaches to drop ceilings, providing a secure mount for lights or microphones using the standard 5\/8&#8243; pin. It&#8217;s particularly helpful for overhead lighting in small office spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/fpdcbpr.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Flashpoint Baby Drop Ceiling Mount, Baby 5\/8&#8243; Receiver<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n<div id=\"FPDCBPR\"  class=\"west_sku_post\" data=\"FPDCBPR\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>This mount fits into standard drop ceiling tiles to support overhead lighting or backdrops in setups that need overhead lighting without stands in view for shoots that require a clean look. The 5\/8\u201d is compatible with most standard light fixtures and accessories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/fppcdbbw.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Flashpoint Duckbill Style Plate Clamp, Black\/White<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n<div id=\"FPPCDBBW\"  class=\"west_sku_post\" data=\"FPPCDBBW\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Perfect for holding wide objects like foamcore and reflectors, this clamp also has rubber padding to hold delicate materials in place without damaging them. A mounting point provides for attaching to stands or arms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Light Stands<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Like the C-stand, a light stand is used to hold and position lights, flashes, or other accessories. While generally lighter and more portable than C-stands, they can also be less stable but not to worry\u2014with the following heavy-duty light stand, stability is not an issue at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Flashpoint Pro Air-Cushioned Heavy-Duty Light Stand<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With a height of 15.7 feet, this is designed for heavy-duty studio or outdoor setups, especially high-angle lighting or larger, wind-resistant setups. With a reversible 1\/4&#8243;-20 and 3\/8&#8243; screw on a 5\/8&#8243; stud, this stand works with just about any lighting gear\u2014flashes, LED lights, soft boxes, you name it.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"FPLS15V2\"  class=\"west_sku_post\" data=\"FPLS15V2\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div id=\"FPLS15SSV2\"  class=\"west_sku_post\" data=\"FPLS15SSV2\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Safety<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When mounting lights or gear overhead, safety is key. The cables listed below, in 18\u201d and 32\u201d sizes, act as fail-safes in case the primary mounting system fails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/fpsc1815.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Flashpoint 18&#8243; Safety Cable with Carabiner<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n<div id=\"FPSC1815\"  class=\"west_sku_post\" data=\"FPSC1815\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Designed primarily for securing lighting and other heavy equipment when working on sets, studios, or stages.
