Questions & Answers

OWEN O : Does this work with the Manfrotto 3 Piece Boom Assembly (Black Anodized) w/10 lb. Counterweight, 6'8" Long (#3385) to attach the book to a normal light stand?ROBERT E. H : It should as the dia. of the tubes are the same as the lastolite. I have both the lastolite and Manfrotto grips and they are very similar. And I often enter change the booms with no problem.
Shopper : hi there, does this come in a pair?Helen H : This grip was only available as (one) unit. I wish it had come in a set of (two). However, when used with a C-type heavy duty stand, one grip is all you need in most cases with the Lastolite Skylites. Unless you want to lift it over head as a sunshade diffuser then 2 stands and 2 grips may be necessary. If you are in a High Wind area then 2 may also be needed. Hope this helped.LEE W : No, this is a single grip head. It is very well-made and works great. I got some Avenger baby 5/8 stud extenders so it would attach to the top of my light stands better. They're very inexpensive and screw onto the 1/4" screw on top of most light stands. The standard light stand stud isn't quite tall enough for this grip head to attach securely.
Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?IAN T : Vanessa Joy photography video recommended itMIKE M : Designed to go with the item I bought.MICHAEL M : I have the lastolite skylite and needed to have it secure while I use it to diffuse light.Helen H : Very strong and sturdy. Grips well and it is not plastic. Big Plus in how it will last.
