Review Summary

The stand is rather heavy, but must be to remain stable while in use. Because of this weight, the system remains stable with a small or medium soft box extended to maximum length of the matching boom. The hanging weight bag is a must, and when used, rotation of the boom is executed smoothly. Though the bow of the boom under two end weights draws a concerned look, all remains stable.

Designed to support both soft boxes and strobes, Photoflex Litestands offer the highest degree of strength and stability. Regular litestands were originally designed to support strobes only. The center in litestands is in the vertical shaft and places the weight equally on all three legs. A mounted softbox to a strobe changes the center of gravity. It moves away from the vertical shaft and places most of the weight on the front leg. The now uneven weight causes instability of the stand falling over. Bolt through joints, widened footprint, increased strength of brace supports and large diameter aluminum tubing improves rigidity. Rubber-tipped feet offer no-slip and quiet movement when changing light arrangement. The option to add casters is available for maximum mobility and convenience. All stands have black anodized paint to eliminate unwanted reflections in the subject. Photoflex lightstands compare to no other strobe/softbox support system.
The Boom Stand is designed to be used with the Photoflex Boom - SKU: LS-BBOOM.
