Use and features:
The padded grip is nice, and feels luxurious compared to the old Avenger stands. I like that the boom arm is included. Be aware that there is no bag included (which is not unusual at all) and this stand is super heavy. The knuckles can be tightened down hard just like the old Avenger stands. The 10 foot height is great and even with heavy lights at that height, the stand was stable and not "tippy".
Pros:
Heavy sturdy good quality stand
Boom arm included, works with most strobes and as a gobo arm right out of the box
Base is removable and the whole unit breaks down for easy travel (did I mention this stand is heavy?)
Works with or without the boom arm.
Risers are spring loaded (awesome feature)
Legs lock into place when opened
Cons:
The only real negative which is an inherent negative with C stands is that they are heavy.
Conclusion:
Still with me? awesome! if you found my review helpful would you help me out and mark it as useful. I love this stand. As I said in the introduction, I don't give a lot of five star reviews I am very critical of my photo equipment. This stand for the price and quality is a great find. I'm sad that I waited this long to push the button and buy one from Flashpoint.
The stands themselves are fine, they’re lighter than the Neewer for sure. The knuckles on the gobo arms are less beefy but I find the levers are harder to loosen and tighten.
My biggest gripe with these are the turtle base legs. On all three of my stands they do not lock no matter how far I move them. This makes them extremely hazardous to move from position and it’s the first time I’ve had a light come down on me.
So, get them if you need a budget stand and Neewer isn’t having a sale, but be really careful if you are moving anything (you should honestly be checking anyway), and make sure you sandbag well.
