Manfrotto Master Light Stand, 144 with Air Cushion, 4 Sections & 3 Risers, Black

The compact size and lightweight construction of these stands make them a practical tool for your lighting support needs. The patented Quick Stack System (QSS) allows you to easily stack the stands together with their built-in connectors for portable transport and storage. The Adapto collars and spider casting material are crucial in providing high performance and lightweight. Adapto, a material specifically developed by Manfrotto for both collars and spider castings, is comparable to aluminum in strength but 50% lighter, with excellent resistance to extreme temperatures and no risk of corrosion or oxidation. Additionally, Adapto is an excellent vibration absorption material. The new Adapto collars are made from a single locking component, ensuring better performance and easier maintenance. A stronger and more ergonomic handle makes it easier to secure stands into the operating position. A 3/8'' screw top female to 1/4" adapter male (015) allows you to connect additional accessories. The new bi-injection casting provides the photographer with a better ergonomic grip.
