LightPro Dual Boom Stand

LightPro Dual Boom Stand - The Ultimate 2-in-1 Articulated Support for Fast-Paced Sets

Engineered for hybrid production environments, the LightPro Dual Boom Stand is a highly adaptable grip solution that functions as both a heavy-duty vertical lighting tower and an integrated overhead boom for precision light and audio placement.

Built for the Demands of Modern Production

On professional sets where speed and spatial efficiency dictate the shooting schedule, grip equipment must be highly adaptable without sacrificing structural integrity. The LightPro Dual Boom Stand addresses this challenge by seamlessly integrating a proprietary articulated joint that acts as both a vertical locking collar and a pivoting overhead boom clamp. By transitioning from a standard 3.92m vertical tower to a 1.91m sweeping boom arm in seconds, grips and gaffers can instantly position hair lights, shotgun microphones, or lightweight modifiers over the talent without swapping stands or introducing additional grip heads to the set.

Crafted from high-tensile aluminum, this stand excels in dynamic on-location scenarios where payload safety and torsion management are paramount. The rigid 4-section center column utilizes robust tube diameters (spanning 35mm down to 20mm) to minimize torsional flex and deflection under load. When operating vertically, the stand comfortably accommodates a payload capacity of up to 9kg, easily supporting high-output LED fixtures and heavy modifiers. When deployed in its boom configuration, the included sandbag counterweight system ensures absolute center-of-gravity balance, safely supporting a 2.0kg payload at maximum horizontal extension to keep crucial gear secure over the action.

Designed for tight studio spaces and expansive location shoots alike, the generous 109cm footprint diameter establishes a highly stable foundation that resists tipping even on uneven terrain. At just 2.7kg overall weight, the unit remains exceptionally portable. This allows solo operators or lean crews to rig complex overhead lighting arrays or boom microphones efficiently, bypassing the exhaustive haul of traditional, oversized C-Stand boom arrays while maintaining uncompromising on-set safety.

Production FAQ

How quickly can this unit transition from a straight stand to a boom?

The conversion is nearly instantaneous; by loosening the central articulated joint, the top tube pivots seamlessly from a vertical locking position to a horizontal boom arm without requiring you to unmount the top tier or add secondary grip hardware.

What is the safe payload limit when the boom arm is fully extended over the talent?

When the arm is pushed to its maximum 191cm extension, the stand safely supports up to 2.0kg (4.4 lbs), provided the included rear sandbag is properly weighted and secured to counterbalance the payload.

Will the base fit easily onto smaller, cramped interview sets?

Yes, the stand requires a maximum footprint diameter of 109cm, striking an ideal balance between critical overhead stability and a compact floor profile for tight interior locations.

Can it mount standard professional cinema lighting fixtures?

Absolutely. The unit features a universal Type 25 receiver with an industry-standard 013 Spigot Adapter (5/8-inch baby pin), ensuring immediate compatibility with the vast majority of LED monolights, fresnels, and audio shock mounts.
