Durable and versatile, the Kupo Convertible Junior Boom Stand is a practical equipment for every studio and outdoor set. It can be converted from a regular light stand into a junior boom arm: all you have to do is pull the center column out of the stand and use the pivoting collar for positioning the arm the way you want. The boom arm comes with a chrome-plated steel construction. It can support a payload of 66 lbs at its minimum extension of 5 ft and 17.6 lbs at its maximum length of 9 ft. Apart from square-end legs, the Kupo Convertible Junior Boom Stand has a single, adjustable leveling leg that is useful for balancing the stand on uneven terrain.
