Perfect travel stand

This is a great travel stand. It’s very compact to where I can put it in a suitcase. I will be getting an additional one. The only thing is that you must tighten each section very well when you extend all the way. I assume it because it’s new. When extended to its full height make sure you have some holding it or sandbags especially outside when wind is present. Overall it’s a great little travel stand. ??????????

Useful size

Handy size to tuck a speed lite or small/medium reflector somewhere in a shoot. Have also used it with a clip and foam board to reflect or flag light. Lightweight, very portable.

Great lightweight portable stand

This is an excellent light stand for a single strobe and softboxes used indoors. I purchased this model based on portability.

Manfrotto Nanopole Stand

It works as advertised and is extremely easy to set up especially at venues where space is at a premium.

Fantastic Stand - Worth the Price!

I generally buy cheaper light stands, as I use them in some pretty rugged environments and more or less accept they're going to get abused sometimes. However, I've always been impressed with Manfrotto quality, and I was looking for a light-weight stand I could carry strapped to my camera backback, and maybe do some hiking with as well. This stand is compact and light weight for sure, but even with my high expectations of Manfrotto products, I've been really impressed! It's got a nice sturdy (wide) footprint, and the center column is super steady. AND- the removable center column that can be used as a handheld light pole... A++! Having the ability to transition from a fixed position light set up on a stand, with weights added to the legs if it's windy, and my assistant working a reflector... to having them loosen the two screw locks and slide the pole out so now we have the light + modifier free to move and transition organically into whatever is happening in the moment... PRICELESS. I expected a great product, as in that this would be a great light stand. I did *NOT* expect that this product would open opportunities for me like it has, improving what I am able to capture and how well I can light & capture it. Photography gear is pretty dang expensive, and each piece adds up fast... but this was one "splurge" I'm really, REALLY glad I pulled the trigger on! I'm planning to pick up a second one of these when one of my other cheaper light stands die on me.

Nice Light stand

This is a nice light stand. Wouldn't work for anything very heavy because of it's weight, but great for a speed light and to carry with you.

Great and portable set!

These are great for being portable when your on the go. They are well built and compact. The only thing with these are that you will need to tighten the screws a bit more than you think you need to.
