This BP Series boompole features three sections that smoothly telescope to provide adjustable reach from 2.7 to 7'. Thanks to the ergonomic quick-twist locks, the BP-36A is easily expanded or collapsed with a single turn. Durable aluminum construction keeps the weight down, ensuring a combination of dependability and portability. The BP-36A's foam handle makes it comfortable to maintain your grip through long shoots, even in hot direct sunlight or cold wintery weather.

Auray BP-36A Reviews

Used once, cannot unlock 2nd section anymore

I used this boom pole on set once, and now the 2nd section will not release. Only opens halfway now. I regret buying this boom pole instead of a more durable option. Learn from my mistake, buy a different boom pole.

Good Product

Is there an adapter that would allow me to mount a Godox AD400Pro to this?
Asked by: Francis
You can use the Impact Female Threaded 3/8" to Male 5/8" Stud Adapter - 50mm Long (B&H # IMCA117) to enable the Auray BP-36A Quick-Twist Lightweight Aluminum Boompole to support the Godox AD400Pro Witstro All-in-One Outdoor Flash. Since the AD400Pro and battery weighs 4.63 lb. and is heavier than most microphones that the BP-36A is intended to support, you may want to consider using a boompole that is designed to support lights and handle more weight, such as the Photoflex LiteReach Plus (B&H # PHEPLP). The LiteReach Plus has a 5/8" top stud so you will not need an adapter and it can handle a 15 lb vertical load at its full extension.

pole is compatible to the comica cvm vs08 directional microphone
Asked by: Donovan
The Comica Audio CVM-VS08 Directional Shotgun Microphone for Smartphones does not have an accessory thread to be able to use it by itself with the Auray BP-36A Quick-Twist Lightweight Aluminum Boompole. You would need to use the mic with a smartphone and smartphone holder that is equipped with an accessory thread in order to attach the boompole.
