Matthews Hollywood Century C Stand 10.5' Overview
Sliding Leg
Also known as a "Rocky Mountain" or leveling leg, the sliding leg can be positioned anywhere on the riser to balance the stand on uneven terrain, against stairs, sliding under chairs, tables, "apple boxes", or pretty much whatever you encounter.
Grip Heads
The stand ships with a removable 2.5" grip head. The grip head allows tilting the stand's 40" arm that has a permanently mounted grip head. In a pinch, the arm can even be used as a mini boom. Each head has two 5/8 and 3/8" serrated holes for flags, scrims, gobos, small lights, and other modifiers.

Matthews Hollywood Century C Stand 10.5' Reviews
It's Matthews, nothing else need be said.

There is something to be said for making the same thing for a long, long time. Matthews has had a lot of time to figure out exactly how a thing feels as you use it. There are other great companies out there and other good products. But you pay a little extra for something you can tell is the real deal in the dark.
Excellent stand!

I bought two and they make a great addition to my video set up for all sorts of purposes.

question
can you mount a boom arm to this one ? and if so which one ?
In place of the grip arm included with the stand, the Matthews Mini Boom (45-80"), B&H # MABMM can be used for holding heavier lights. It features a hook at the end to add a counterweight as well.

can this cstand be "soldiered" with another of the same unit for more efficient storage?
and can you use impact 40" risers & impact grip heads with this cstand?
if it's not compatible, is this the right grip head (
B&H # MAHWH2.5 ) for this matthews sliding leg cstand?
You may purchase the Matthews C-Stand Rolling KitBag for 3 Stands (Black), B&H # MA339776, or the Impact Rolling Case for Three 52" C-Stands, B&H # IMLKB3RCS, may be purchased for efficient storage and transport of the Matthews Hollywood C-Stand Grip Arm Kit (Silver, 10.5'). While Impact C-stand risers are not listed as separate accessories on our website, if you already own an Impact C-stand riser, it should be compatible for use with the above stand, along with Impact grip heads and the Matthews Hollywood Grip Head - 2-1/2".

question
I own this stand, Matthews Hollywood Century C Stand Grip Arm Kit - 10.5' (3.2m)B&H # MALSC40HW MFR # 756040. I need an attachment to connect a PCB Einstein to the end, is anything compatible sold for this use?
You could attach your Einstein flash head to the rounded tip of your grip arm or if you need the head to swivel more easily, you can use an Avenger E650 6.0 Pin with Collar. The pin would insert into the grip head on the opposite end of the arm and the Einstein flash head would slide onto it. Please see the image below for reference.

Looking for an outdoor C stand. I own a bunch of the impact turtle base kits, (Impact Turtle Base C-Stand Kit (10.75', Chrome)
BH #IMLSCT40MK ), but this Matthews Cstand seems better than the impact sliding leg version, since the Matthews bottom legs are all one piece for sliding leg outdoors. would the impact grip heads/accessories fit on the matthews c stands?
Yes, the Impact grip heads and grip arms are compatible with other C-stands from Matthews.

can i simply attach a aputure light to this stand or do I need more accessories like a ball head and sandbags?
You can attach almost any light to this stand, either to the arm or the column itself. You don't need a sandbag if you know the correct way to set up a c-stand, but it would be highly recommended. As a ex-professional grip walking around NYC observing shoots I can tell you few people truly understand how to use these stands correctly, so be sure to do you research!
