Sturdy classic C-Stand with boom arm

Sturdy classic style C-Stand with boom arm for the price. Are there better ones out there? Yes, but not for a similar price point. Don't hesitate to purchase.

Flashpoint C-stand Versatility

Awesome stands well made and gives you creativity flexibility. The finale shoot I used 1 Flashpoint Cstand 1 Flashpoint AD-200 Pro for main light over the flower and use a second clamp for my Flashpoint R2 Speed Light for bounce fill.

Great quality but heavy

I got the kit with the wheeled case and was able to fit 4 c-stands and a small tripod and some other stuff. the case still works fine just it's really heavy.

Keeps your stands organized- love it!

This was exactly what I was looking for. In the past I was throwing C-stands in the bag of my rig and it was hard to keep them from getting scratched. This bag is perfect for keeping them all neat and organized. Only bad thing, with three c-stands it is pretty heavy to lift in and out, but when pulling the wheels do the job.

cheap but good

Not as strong as a mathews stand, it has a little more sway. But it was cheap, worth the price, sturdy and still strong, and also has a travel case good for transportation and storage.

Great kit to get you going.

This is a great kit. The Stands are sturdy enough that I don't worry about the loads I put on them even medium loads boomed out. It's nice to have the extra gobo grip heads and baby pins to make getting lights into the right position easier. As always, practice proper C-Stand safety procedures and you'll not have to worry about things tipping over or falling. The case seems nice and durable, but I don't often use it since I stay set up in one location most of the time.

Very well made.

Everything in the kit is very well made. No quality issues here. I was pleasantly surprised that each C-stand came with an extra knuckle. Don't remember reading that in the details, but a welcome addition. The case fits all the pieces included plus a fair amount more depending on how heavy you are ok with it being.

Good

They work very well. All the knobs can be tightened down well and the boom arm can hold lights as well as flags. The capacity is also true, I bought it because it said 30lb capacity as a stand and I have a 25lb Leko mounted on one with no issues. The one problem I had out of 4 stands was a rubber foot fell off so I taped it on.

Good replacement!

Does the job. Threaded into my c-stand without an issue. It appears longer which is good considering there could be variation in bases.

would buy again but would never rent

This is my first c stand and im happy that I got it for less than a hundred dollars. when I got it I was happy with the sturdiness of the stand and was confused by a few things. 1. The gobo heads arnt like the ones that i see on youtube. the openings are circular instead of "square." im not sure if this decreases the grip of the heads any but its quietly alienating. 2. The ones i got did not have a way to control the spining of the central column peice. I do not know if this is on purpose. i talked to my rental house about it and they said that that was not normal and that it might be adjustable on the column with an allen key.

Always have a spare.

So glad that Adorama carries parts for their C-Stands. Lost one and wasn't able to use the knuckle without it. Fit with no problem.

Affordable and durable

Received these C-stands about a month ago and it does not disappoint, complete with the arms and sturdy. The build quality is quite nice and haven’t had any issues with it. I appreciate the small touches it comes with a nice rubber grip on the stand. Haven’t had any problems.

Nice way to carry 3 rugged C-Stands

What sets the Flashpoint 10' Century C Stand Kit apart is its embodiment of the classic C Stand tradition, offering robust and dependable support for lighting and modifiers in both cinema and still photography studios. This kit boasts a two-tier, 10-foot spring-loaded riser column complete with a baby pin on top, facilitating secure mounting of various lighting equipment. The removable turtle base is engineered with a self-locking mechanism, ensuring stability and ease of use during setup and breakdown.

Constructed from high-quality steel with a sleek chrome finish, the stand is not only sturdy but also durable, designed to withstand the rigors of frequent use in a professional environment. Its load capacity of 30.1 to 31 lbs. makes it suitable for a wide range of equipment, ensuring versatility across different shooting scenarios.

The kit includes two aluminum 3.0" grip heads and a 40" extension boom arm, which allows for precise positioning of light modifiers, arms, scrims, flags, gobos, or smaller lights. The unique design of the grip heads features interlocking surfaces that maintain a fixed position, providing reliable support for accessories on the steel arm, which can be used in one of its four channels of varying diameters.

The innovative 'Turtle Base' offers an exceptionally low center of gravity, preventing tipping and enhancing stability, especially when used with sandbags. Its staggered curved leg design not only allows for compact storage but also enables multiple C Stands to be nested closely together, optimizing studio space. Additionally, the adjustable legs can be positioned at any angle, offering greater flexibility than traditional fixed-leg stands.

The Flashpoint 10' Century C Stand Kit is a testament to the evolution of the C Stand, which originated from the early days of motion picture production. Today, it stands as an indispensable tool in the arsenal of photographers and filmmakers, continuing the legacy of the century-sized reflectors that gave these stands their name. With its combination of strength, versatility, and reliability, this C Stand kit is an essential 'must-have' for any serious image maker's studio setup.

Flashpoint C-Stand Features

  • Legs swing lock into preset and custom positions
  • Durable chrome finished steel withstands harsh conditions.
  • Spring loaded buffer on each riser section with rubber gaskets
  • Stagger height 'Turtle Legs' allow for close nesting stands
  • Two Aluminum Gobo/Grip/Knuckle Heads with 4 channels for total dexterity
  • Sure locking legs fold flat for storage and transport
  • Baby Pin stud for angular mounts
