Flashpoint 10' Century Light Stand on Turtle Base Kit, 2-Pack with Case

Sturdy, secure, and safely portableThe Flashpoint 10' Century C Stand Kit carries on the Flashpoint tradition of crafting powerful light and modifier supports. Affordable and dependable, this kit is ideal for cinema and still studios. All of it packs up and fits in a durable and convenient-to-carry case. The C stand is of the most important pieces of equipment you can have on-set. Integral for lighting and grip, this is the kit for seasoned pros and starters alike.What makes the Flashpoint C stands so sturdy and unique is the 'Turtle Base.' Featuring a specially designed sure-locking mechanism, the 'Turtle Base' provides an exceptionally low center of gravity, balancing off-axis gear without tipping (especially when secured with saddlebag style sandbags). Each leg firmly sets to a preset lock position for easy swing set-up and then flat for compact storage or transport and individual legs can be swung to any angle. The staggered curved leg design also allows C Stands to be nested, allowing for several to be used in close proximity. The lower leg can also be slid under many objects, getting into even tighter spaces.The kit's extension gobo rod arm precisely supports light modifiers, arms, scrims, cantilever flags, gobos or smaller lights, into exact position. The 5/8" diameter arm and Grip/Gobo/KnuckleHead combination can also be used as a short boom, meaning it is tremendously helpful on still-life sets, supporting everything from collapsible reflectors to soup spoons in clamps hovering over cereal bowls. The cast aluminum head design has interlocking facing surfaces to keep a fixed position when supporting accessories on the steel and the jaws open (to a maximum of 1-1/8") to hold rods, dowels and studs. The channel disks pivot around the center tightening handle and are grooved to friction hold firmly.The C Stand kit features a 10', two-tier spring-loaded riser column with a baby pin on top, removable turtle self-locking base legs, 2 aluminum 3.0" grip heads and a 40" extension boom arm. And it all tucks into a first-class case that transports and protects the C-stands as well as the removable base, arms, and related knuckles, booms, and accessories. Plus, the durable outer shell of woven ballistic 900D nylon exterior resists water with triple-stitched seams and double zippered weatherproof sealing.The C Stand by itself is a 'must-have,' but when paired with the Slinger L7 BigBag, this kit becomes crucial whether in your studio or out on-location. Transporting C stands can be a real bear, due to the weight, size and need for protection, but the Slinger BigBag keeps everything snug and manageable. The Slinger L7 BigBag's padded terylene interior is explicitly designed to safely transport your stands, while the soft inner buffer lining smooths the trip. Inside the bag, fastening fabric straps and hook-locks prevent shifting movement of the components, while customizable impact tape fits to your specific needs. Whether you're using the...
