Foldaway, twist-and-release locking legs.
Durable finish resists all weather conditions.
Innovative design on the Century Stand base allows individual legs to be set at any angle and be positioned in locations not possible with classic stands.
Ergonomic "T" shaped handles are "captive"—they do not come off of the stand when unscrewed, preventing loss.
Each riser section has an external rubber gasket, which protects your equipment and fingers from sudden drops in stand elevation.

Impact LS-CT40M Reviews

As expected

By Norimer

This is my first C stand and was contemplating on getting other brand, but this was more than enough for my work. It is sturdy and heavy that putting a sandbag was overkill, but better safe than sorry.

Great Value for Small Productions

These Impact stands are very well built and easy to use. Having the case is also so helpful for smaller productions with a light crew. Makes it so easy to get in and out of the filming location and bring in the car. So glad I bought these!

This is a purchase I will only need to make in 10- 20 years. I rarely need to add additional weight. This is just what I need in a light stand.

Seems incomplete, not spring loaded and no 650 pin.

Great solid stand, strange that it is not spring loaded like my cheaper light stand is for my pro[master cool light rig. Also I found it very strange there is no 650 pin included, so I was mounting my light on the opposite end of the boom knuckle like some kind of clueless idiot. I also bought an Impact 7' Luxbanx which did not come with the smaller speed ring to mount it's support rods into a bowens mount on my speed light. I guess Impact likes to leave you incomplete and scratching your head. If I get a second turtle-based C-Stand it will not be the Impact brand I can tell you that.

I brought this because my cheap light stand is so flimsy and I don't want to pay too much on a stand. This C-Stand is beyond my expectations! It's a solid product with sturdy construction. It's easy to extend and collapse. I will never worry about knocking it down by careless movement.

Better quality than expected for the price. Love the quick detaching base. Came quite oily but a paper towel wipe-down took care of that.

Asked by: CURTIS
If you will be connecting the Godox AD400Pro Witstro All-in-One Outdoor Flash directly to the 5/8" stud on the top of the center column on the Impact Turtle Base C-Stand Kit (10.75', Chrome), then no additional adapter would be needed. If, however, you plan to connect the Godox AD400Pro Wistro All-In-One Outdoor Flash to the grip arm included with the Impact Turtle Base C-Stand Kit (10.75', Chrome), then I would recommend purchasing the Impact 6" Baby Pin with Collar 1/4 and 3/8" Tap, B&H # IMSRP110P. This would be inserted into the grip head on the grip arm, and would allow you to connect the Godox AD400Pro Wistro All-In-One Outdoor Flash onto the grip arm.

What secures the risers in place after positioning and tightening? Is it the screw pressing against the riser or is there a 360 design squeezing the riser?
Asked by: Adam
I never had a reason to take mine apart to see exactly how the screw tightens the riser, but it never leaves any marks on the riser when I've tightened mine. The design and quality is excellent and I have no complaints or issues. It is taller than the Avenger stand which may not be good for some setups, so keep that in mind.

question

I've never used a C-stand before. I have a Flashpoint Xplor 600 and a variety of modifiers. Is there anything additional that I would need to mount the strobe to this stand? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Asked by: Charles B.
If mounting the light to the grip head end of the extension arm, the Impact SRP-113 Long Double Stud 5/8 B&H # IMSRP113 would be needed. Otherwise, if you wanted to mount the strobe directly to the stand, you would remove the extension arm and place the strobe on top of the 5/8 stud there. Either way you go, using some counterweights such as the Impact Saddle Sandbag (15 lb, Orange) B&H # IMSBFO15 across the legs is ideal to keep the stand stable. Please see the image below for reference.

I would like to take off the Turtle base, and instead, use the stand with a kind of wall plate that could receive the stand. (I want a flat base, no legs.) What’s the size of the bottom spin of the stand? Is there any wall plate receiver that will match this size?
Asked by: Alexandre
You can get a junior receiver wall plate https://bhpho.to/2N3b1QK.
