Disappointed

Snapped with flashpoint 600 with 42" glow beauty dish in studio. Luckily no one was hurt and no strobe damage. Only recommend it for light strobes or moonlights. If aluminum build was thicker would be a perfect lightstand.

Great height and sturdy for small to mid lights.

I love it, it's the perfect height and weight and very sturdy. I also appreciate the ability to change the orientation of the top screw attachment.

Good for a year or so

worked well for about a year and a half. I shoot on weekends usually, light use. 24 inch modifiers usually or bare AD100, but the top section bolt/or nut strips out. They both did it around the same time, not allowing me to use the top section. I may be able to find a work around, but don't usually carry pliers with me to tighten a nut.

Be mindful when using outdoors

For portability and ease of use this stand is 5 star, however, if you do a lot of work outdoors purchase with caution. Granted I am sort of rough on gear as I photograph seniors outdoors in both standard portraits and sports portraits with wind and athlets flying everywhere, but have two stands recently sheer the inner scoping pole off - one when a football player bumped it and once when a strong gust of wind blew the light over and the stand was caught. Lucky in both cases we were able to catch the lights before they crashed. If you are in a studio or controlled environment I would not think there would be any issues.

Misleading specs on load capacity and weight, however the light stand seems well built and should be okay for my needs.

This specific Flashpoint Pro Air-Cushioned Heavy-Duty Light Stand (Chrome, 13') was fairly solid and held a Xplor 600 SE with a 35 inch parabolic softbox (about 10 lbs. or so) without too much wobble. I'll have to wait to see how it performs on location when there might be some wind. The stand seems to be pretty well built. No issues with knobs, legs, air cushioning, or extension pole. The only thing that bothered me was error of the load capacity and stand weight of the light stand listed in the Specs part of the description on the website. The website listed the light stand's load capacity as "19.1 to 25 lbs." while the product box and product tag that was attached to the stand indicated that load capacity is 13.2 lbs. I ordered this unit for it's load capacity of what I believed to be at least 19 lbs. based on the specs on the website. Also, the website listed the weight of the stand at "3.1 to 5 lbs.". The weight listed on the product box is actually 7.3 lbs. Seems a little misleading for these specs to be that far off, hence the 1 star reduction.

Good sturdy, air-cushioned light stand. Great value.

I've only used it once, so far, but this seems like a fairly sturdy lightstand. I love the air-cushioned sections. One of the little plastic plugs at the end of a leg comes out far too easily, but that picking nits. For the price (I got it for about $40) it was a great value.

Neewer price, but a lot better quality

I am really impressed by this stand. It's not going to be the pride of your studio, but if you are just starting out or need reliable yet portable equipment for portrait shooting on location (my particular application), this is an excellent value. It's got a great price, decent height, reasonably light weight, compresses down to a small size, and it's really solid. The individual tubes are much larger in diameter than anything I've seen at this price. I put a Godox SK400 with a 16x48 strip box on it with no noticeable deflection.

Cant beat build quality and functionality at this price point

These stands are awesome! They are big and beefy for the price you pay and they will hold up pretty much whatever a small space / studio can ask of them. Pleasantly surprised at build quality and functions/features at such a good price point.

Exceptional Value, Sturdy, Great Stands

These stands are beefier and sturdier than I expected at this pricepoint. For a small space / studio setup they are more than sufficient to meet all my needs; and I feel confident that they will do the job I ask of them without any concern for the gear they are holding for me.

V2 is great!

I had several of the version 1 models and recently received a new v2 model and it's a great improvement! With v1, the top mount was riveted in place and it was always a little loose. The v2 model fixes that, in fact all of the fittings are a bit sturdier while the overall weight remains low. Ordering another one today!

Amazing and solid for the price. Air compression is so nice. I have lights and soft boxes on these and they do wonderful. The price point can't be beat. A lot better than the cheep ones on the other website. For reference the model is 5'3".

Great nightstands at Great Price

Medium Price, Medium Weight. But Strong. Good Height, just what I needed for on location use. Especially like that cinch collars are metal with actual bolts that can be replaced if needed. Not bolts threading into questionable metal collars like so many light stands of this type.

Good stable stand. Fast shipping. Helpful customer service

By EVGENIYA E.

Using it for my new GODOX light. Loving an air cushion and durability of the stand. Worth it is money. Good stand is always good investment if you do not want to brake your expensive lights.

Love this stand!

By thisisntadonis

I've already made a review about this stand but I'll make one for the pair I got as well. This shit is wonderful. Its light, very strudy, and perfectly compact. Comes with a padded case and while being stored in the case stands at a mere 34 inches. Perfect for travel packing.

For professional photographers and videographers seeking a robust and versatile lighting solution, the Flashpoint 13' Yellow Color Coded Pro Air-Cushioned Heavy-Duty Light Stand V2 is an exceptional choice. Crafted from high-quality, lightweight materials, this sturdy light stand offers unparalleled durability and reliability.

This stand's standout feature is its reversible 1/4" or 3/8" screw on a 5/8" stud, eliminating the need for additional adapters or hardware. This unique feature allows for the mounting of virtually any light, modifier, speedlight, or bracket, offering unmatched flexibility and compatibility for your lighting needs.

Enhancing its versatility, the Flashpoint Light Stand V2 also offers a perpendicular mounting option. This feature is particularly beneficial for portrait photography, allowing for the creation of dramatic and flattering lighting effects. The angle and position of the mounted accessory can be adjusted to suit individual preferences, providing further customization.

Ease of use is a key focus of this light stand, with large, easy-to-turn knobs that prevent finger pinching and provide a secure grip. These knobs allow for more torque to tighten and loosen the stand sections, simplifying the process of raising, lowering, and locking the stand at the desired height.

The stand's variable tension feature allows for incremental loosening or tightening of the sections, ensuring safe raising and lowering of each section while preventing unexpected collapsing or slipping.

Constructed from tubular aircraft-grade aluminum, the sturdy legs of this light stand can support a maximum load while maintaining a low weight. The legs feature a perfect footprint-to-height ratio for optimal stability and balance, and the rubber-tipped feet prevent sliding and shifting while protecting expensive flooring and dampening vibrations.

Despite its heavy-duty construction, the Flashpoint 13' Yellow Color Coded Pro Air-Cushioned Heavy-Duty Light Stand V2 remains lightweight and portable. Its collapsible design and use of high-quality, lightweight materials ensure it can support the maximum possible weight with minimal strain on your back, making it an ideal choice for on-location shoots.
