Max Height 300cm
Min Height 145cm
Boom Length 127cm
Max Load Capacity 10KG
Stand Weight 11KG

The Essential C-Stand is ideal for setting up even larger lights in the studio. The term “C-Stand” means “Century Stand”, comes from the early days of motion picture production. It is still very popular at this very day, due to its extra stability and robust design, which is capable of holding fairly heavy equipment. At a maximum capacity of 10kg, this C-Stand is made of die-cast chrome metal therefore very versatile in its use. It can be extended to a length of 145cm to 300cm in 2 segments and be locked at the desired height with two butterfly screws. A foam grip ensures slip resistance and ease of use. The stepped height of each of the base legs allows individual legs to be set at any angle and also allows multiple stands to be used extremely close together, which is very convenient for small studio or limited spaces. Due to the spigot with a 5/8 inch connection you can mount all common studio lights and flashes onto the lamp tripod. Switching between different lights is also easy and quick.

The tripod can be disassembled for storage. While the centre column can be retracted to a length of 115cm for storage or transport, the tripod legs can be folded flat and removed from the centre column.

Boom Stands are ideal for lighting your subject from directly over-head. They are also useful for times when you need to position your light centred above or below camera position without the stand getting in the way of your shot. Ideal for Hair-lights and for Clamshell, and Butterfly (or Paramount) lighting set-ups.

Q&A’s

I want to mount my studio flash on to the end of the boom arm. Do I require any additional accessories to do this?

The boom that comes with this C stand has a standard 5/8" stud at the end of the boom, so you will be able to mount your studio flash onto the end of the boom without any additional accessories.

How do I open the fixed legs, do I need a special key to open them?

The legs are not designed to be unscrewed as they are tightened to ensure the stand is very sturdy. In order to open these legs you will need to pull the legs apart to separate them, as the c-stand is designed to be very heavy duty you will need to use quite a lot of force. On the collars of the legs there is a slight lip that keeps them locked in place, you will need to pull it out of this lip. This should cause it to move and if you continue to turn the leg is will then lock in place again to keep it secure.

I'm having trouble figuring out how to set the feet of my C-Stand up. Is there something I am doing wrong?

To set up the feet for your C-Stand, all you have to do is simply pull them apart as demonstrated in the video below, however they do require a bit of force to pull apart. There is nothing that you will need to unscrew or loosen or to set them up.

What maximum load capacity that this stand will hold with the boom fully extended?

The maximum load capacity of our Professional Heavy Duty Century Boom Stand is approximately 10kg.

I would like to buy wheels for this C Stand - which diameter of the leg base I should go for as there are few options on your website?

We currently only have one set of caster wheels that will be compatible with our C-Stand, these can be found by going to the following link;

Please note, this will not be compatible with our older version of the c-stands, please check the leg diameter if unsure

Amazon Review

Rolls Royce of lighting stands, solid, beautifully engineered, stainless steel so won't rust, weighty enough to not be blown over. It stands 10 feet when fully extended, that is without the included boom arm. The tubing is so strong you can use superclamps to attach additional items to the uprights thereby making the stand even more versatile. Also I must point out that these look stunning and give a very professional impression.

Rock solid quality

As solidly made as can be. If you need a c-stand then this is perfect.

Recommend that you watch a few youtube videos on usage ...

Top quality stand, sterdy, heavy and manouverable. Recommend that you watch a few youtube videos on usage and correct assembly/placement.
