Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Westcott 750 Photo Basics 7.0-Foot Light Stand
Customer Review: Good Stand
Summary: 5 Stars
I haven't had any problems with this stand. It's got spring loaded sections so when you loosen a section to extend it it kind of pops up. I'm not sure why that is. Maybe it's actually to cushion them coming down.
Anyway, it's nicely built and sturdy. It's kind of large IMO, so not something you want to carry around all the time. It would be nice if it came with a carry bag also.
Customer Review: Light, wobbly, great stand for the price.
Summary: 5 Stars
I use this at weddings. It's a very light/slightly wobbly tall stand. It also folds up pretty small. I used it to attach a remote flash, and just do my best to place it in a spot where nothing will touch it (I think it will fall very easily).
Basically, its incredibly convenient. Makes your light taller than most people, as long as they won't bump into it. I'd purchase again.
Customer Review: cheap and good
Summary: 5 Stars
I own several light stands as I use them to hold up my touring puppet stages. This one seems as good as several of the $80-100 stands I've purchased. I'm curious to see how it holds up to touring. It has a strange spring mech. that causes the ends to pop out a few inches. I'm not sure what the purpose of this is and it doesn't realy bother me, I just haven't seen it before.Customer Review: Very Nice Light Stand
Summary: 5 Stars
This light stand, while not professional quality, is very good. I have a small home studio and have purchased several light stands of similar quality. This one by Westcott is very sturdy and quite well made. Adjustments are easy and the stand has a nice feel/weight to it. For the price and what it is, a light-weight light stand, I would highly recommend this product.Customer Review: An excellent stand for strobists.
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased 2 of these based on the good reviews and I must say, I was not disappointed. These stands seem very durable and unknown to me beforehand, they ARE air cushioned. I do agree that these are designed for lightweight flashes and not heavy objects. It holds my SB-600 with 40" umbrella no problem. It's great for a travel kit. Definitely Recommend.
