        Great and compact counterweight. I use it with the manfrotto boom arm and works wonderfully to balance heavier lighting rigs.

              I use these on Manfrotto Combi boom stands. They are much more compact that sand/weight bags and can be moved along the boom to change the pivot point without having to extend or contract the boom arm.

                I was looking for something to replace the hanging sand bags for my boom arms. I ended up getting three of the 10 lbs Manfrotto 023 Counter Balance Weights. They work great, just what I needed. I would buy them again.

                      The plate likes to get stuck once in a while, no big deal, other than that it works great! The paint is already chipping with very little use.

                            You don't want lights to tip over nor do you want a weight to fall off. This weight fits both job easily.

                              Works fine, better than hanging a sandbag off the end of the boom.
