Best c stands ever!

This is one of the best lighting stands you can buy. Matthews makes substantial quality and very sturdy as well. The fact that it is heavy is not really a negative. I want my light stands to be heavy and stable. Though pictured, this stand does not come with the arm, but you need it so order it at the same time. You will not be disappointed. You only have to buy a product like this once. A great investment.
