I bought this product to hold an umbrella and a speedlight for my lighting. It will hold my apollo orb, umbrella bracket, Photix Mitros, PW TT5, and a battery pack. the boom is metal with plastic joints, plastic clamp and a 5lb counter weight. for the price it is a nice little boom. like the metal parts. the only con that I can think of for this boom is that there are plastic parts on this boom that make this a little weak.

question

I'm having trouble keeping it tight enough from pivoting on my stand. It's a large stand. But I haven't seen complaints on that. What am I doing wrong?
Asked by: Ed B.
The boom arm has a support weigh of no more than 4 lbs. If you are over that weight it will slip. If lights are less than 4 lbs it could be that the stand diameter is too small and so the swivel clamp cannot tighten down enough.If those are not the issues it is best to come in to chat or call.

question

Will this work with the Einstein E640 used with a beauty dish or will I need something more sturdy?
Asked by: Greg A.
I have an Einstein and beauty dish, and it will support them, although it does flex quite a bit. If you need to move your setup around a lot, you might be happier with a sturdier arrangement.
