Some C-Stands have a turtle base (some with a removable column where the column can be replaced with a baby pin to place a light close to the ground). There are a couple of base styles for C-Stands. Or you can get a C-Stand that adds a grip arm (sometimes called an extension arm) and knuckle for more versatility. You can get just a basic C-Stand that consists of a base with three collapsible legs and a center column. Use a “baby” or “junior” stand with a boom arm and counterweights when your light needs to be above someone. They are not designed for safely booming a light and modifier overhead. They were originally designed for film studios where they are used to hold various pieces of equipment such as gobos, flags, cutters, and small lighting fixtures. Emphasis on small when using a grip arm. UPDATE: I found a great video about using C-Stands on Youtube.Ĭ-stands, also called Century-Stands, are a very popular and useful accessory in the photo studio.
