Comments about Avenger A2030D Turtle Base Century C Stand with Detachable Base - 9.8' (3m):
This product is built extremely well. Although heavy, it makes up for it by supporting heavy loads. I primarily use it for an RX1200 and DT Octa and have no fear of it falling down. In addition to the counterweight arm, I also load it with 3 kettlebells on each leg of the stand.

Comments about Avenger A2030D Turtle Base Century C Stand with Detachable Base - 9.8' (3m):
The C-stand is well built, no chance of falling apart. I can trust this stand will hold anything I have, including large mono lights. They do have some weight to them, but that is do to their rugged construction.

Comments about Avenger A2030D Turtle Base Century C Stand with Detachable Base - 9.8' (3m):
I use this in conjunction with the D600 mini boom, and it's a great setup. The base is wide enough to support a 3x4 soft box without a sandbag on the base, but you still need a counterweight to keep the boom from swinging down.

Comments about Avenger A2030D Turtle Base Century C Stand with Detachable Base - 9.8' (3m):
I use it for flash/umbrella as well as monolight/umbrella/softbox. It is portable enough to take in an SUV or van. 9' 8" height provides great flexibility for many types of shots.
The stand is very sturdy and provides great support. I would buy again.

Comments about Avenger A2030D Turtle Base Century C Stand with Detachable Base - 9.8' (3m):
I use the c stand in a small booth and it is the only stand that will fit inside the small dimensions of the booth and will still be stable. It is a bit heavy to carry but that heft makes all the more stable when in use.
