[QUOTE="Fortkentdad, post: 608351, member: 24285"] I had mentioned buying this "16' Rotatable Boom Stand" when I was in Calgary earlier this month At 16' this is a big stand - way oversized for in home use - unless you have high vaulted ceilings. To get to 16" the boom is mounted vertically as an vertical extension. Folded up the box is 48" long and it just fits. It is holding my Godox AD-360 like it wasn't there. The battery pack serves as a counter balance - would be even better if the cord was longer. The sample shot is of one of my wife's antiques - a child's wooden rocking horse from a time when such toys were works of art. Love the woodworking craftsmanship on this horse. At $129 from Strobe-Pro in Calgary this is one very heavy duty (and heavy to carry) stand that would be stable enough even fully extended, depending on the weight of the light on the end. Certainly a small strobe or a speedlight or two on the end will be like nothing is there. A big softbox would add a light weight - and a sail effect in the wind.
