Love it! buying more! - I don't give a lot of five star reviews, but the Flashpoint C stand deserves it. I have used a lot of C stands - mostly Avenger brand. I was a bit hesitant at the affordability of this stand and all of the features. I was worried the stability or quality would suffer because of the added features - boy was I wrong. If you are looking for a lightweight stand for your speedlight, this isn't it. C stands are supposed to be heavy and in my experience scary to use. I have had my hand or finger squashed many times with the old-school C Stands, and this is resolved in the Flashpoint version with the addition of inner springs, a great touch! I love the fact that the stand comes with the boom arm the knuckle and baby pin. What this means is that most lights you would use on this stand are accommodated right out of the box. Just setup the stand attach the light and your all set. I use this stand with my profoto D2, Photoflex Flexflash 400 and Starlight 600. The larger Photoflex Constellation continuous lights also work perfectly on this stand. Use and features: The padded grip is nice, and feels luxurious compared to the old Avenger stands. I like that the boom arm is included. Be aware that there is no bag included (which is not unusual at all) and this stand is super heavy. The knuckles can be tightened down hard just like the old Avenger stands. The 10 foot height is great and even with heavy lights at that height, the stand was stable and not "tippy". Pros: Heavy sturdy good quality stand Boom arm included, works with most strobes and as a gobo arm right out of the box Base is removable and the whole unit breaks down for easy travel (did I mention this stand is heavy?) Works with or without the boom arm. Risers are spring loaded (awesome feature) Legs lock into place when opened Cons: The only real negative which is an inherent negative with C stands is that they are heavy. Conclusion: Still with me? awesome! if you found my review helpful would you help me out and mark it as useful. I love this stand. As I said in the introduction, I don't give a lot of five star reviews I am very critical of my photo equipment. This stand for the price and quality is a great find. I'm sad that I waited this long to push the button and buy one from Flashpoint. Review: Great stand! - I now have four of these with two more coming. Love these stands! Well made, heavy, and durable. The grips are medium/light heavy duty, but work great. What I mean by that is, if you held a Hollywood grade grip in one hand and one of these in the other, you would instantly see what I'm talking about. However, that being said, I haven't had any problems at all. I've had an eight pound light at the end of the grip arm 11 feet over head with no issues. For the money... you can not find a better deal anywhere. And, if the grips are an issue, these stands are fully compatible with ALL century stand accessories. The turtle base (Which require both hands to open, you can't just roll them open off the leg) are standard size and very sturdy. The main stand stem has a junior pin bottom that slides into the turtle base with a baby junior pin top so you can place a light right on the stand. It also has internal springs for accidental drops (don't do that though). You will not be disappointed. ## Features - SECURE & ROBUST: The 10' Century C-Stand Kit is ideal for cinema & still studios, offers stability & strength for light stand photography & modifier support with 2-tier spring loaded riser columns & baby pin on top - VERSATILE & COMPACT DESIGN: This Lighting C Stand features removable turtle self-locking base legs, 120-degree lock position, & nested storage for multiple C Stands - NESTING CAPABILITY & UNIQUE STAGGERED LEG DESIGN: The C Stand Frame allows multiple Photography Light Stands to be used nearby, and the lower leg to slide under objects, maximizing studio space efficiency - ENHANCED STABILITY: The unique 'Turtle Base' design ensures a shallow center of gravity, preventing tipping when secured with saddlebag-style sandbags, perfect for a C Stand with boom arm - COMPREHENSIVE SUPPORT & FLEXIBILITY: This Boom Stand offers a 40" extension grip arm with 5/8" diameter, and Grip/Gobo/Knuckle Head combination, allowing for precise, adaptable support of light modifiers, arms, scrims, and more in C Stand photography - PACKAGE INCLUDES - Folding Turtle Legs, Two Tier Rise Center Column, 2x Gobo/Grip/Knuckle Heads, 40" Steel Arm Dowel, Baby Pin - Baby Pin stud for angular mounts - No further features available. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #319 in Photographic Lighting Booms & Stands | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 586 Reviews | ## Images ![Flashpoint 10' C (Century) Light Stand - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41dxZbIDQJS.jpg) ![Flashpoint 10' C (Century) Light Stand - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61P5oafg3AL.jpg) ![Flashpoint 10' C (Century) Light Stand - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61CHbBPuAgL.jpg) ![Flashpoint 10' C (Century) Light Stand - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61m0nmVZzdL.jpg) ![Flashpoint 10' C (Century) Light Stand - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61XnVUeYJXL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: does it come with the boom arm** A: Yes, it comes with the arm, two clamps, and a baby pin. I'm using it at the moment and have Matthews stands as well. I would say they are pretty comparable for the most part. The flashpoint one has a few benefits I like: it comes with the baby pin (Matthews doesn't), the riser is spring cushioned (the Matthews doesn't have any cushioning), and the boom has screw adapters at each end although I would have to check to get the exact size (Matthews booms don't have this. All that being said, the Matthews also have some benefits: the turtle base seems more sturdy and feel like it will last longer (time will tell), the clamps feel like they are made of a harder aluminum and are a bit more robust. Both are great depending on what the application is. **Q: Can i mount a westcott fj 400 strobe and an ez glow 42" soft box on the boom arm?** A: that shouldn't be a problem, assuming you have the correct mount to attach the softbox to your strobe. The stand came with a baby pin. I use that for my Glow EZ Lock Deep Parabolic Quick Softbox (38") and a FlashPoint AD200 strobe and it works just fine. **Q: Can a s-type bracket bowens mount holder for speedlite flash be mounted to the boom arm?** A: I use my Godox S-type bracket with this stand all the time. https://amzn.to/2O0LTbM It holds speedlights, my Profoto A1 and my Godox AD200 perfectly. **Q: Does anybody has a clue of the shipping weight of the c stand bundle $119.95? it can't be 3.5 ounces** A: I don't remember the exact weight, but it was somewhere in the range of 20 pounds (give or take 8-10 pounds). ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great quality C stand!

It is also very heavy; which is a good thing and a bad thing. The good news is that I no longer worry about a light tipping over. The bad news is that I'm not going to be tucking this thing under my arm and walking with a load of gear. Did I mention that it's heavy? It is so heavy and adaptable that it can be used for duties other than holding a light. Adding a ball mount lets me use it to hold a camera when I do product shots in my studio. I am able to position the camera to shoot down on the product, and with tethered shooting it really speeds up my work. It is a good product at a good price. ## Frequently Bought Together - Flashpoint 10' C Light Stand on Turtle Base Kit with Two Tier Spring Loaded Riser Column, Two 3" GOBO Heads, Baby Pin and 40" Grip Arm, Chrome, a C Stand for Cinema and Still Studios - Aimosen 4 Packs Sandbags Weight Bags for Light Stand Photography Video Equipment, Heavy Duty Saddlebag for Backdrop Stand, Photo Tripod, Canopy, Pop up Tent, Umbrella Base, Fishing Chair, Picnic Table - Amazon Basics Photographic Empty Sandbag for Light Stands, 4-Pack, Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.fr/products/18628104-flashpoint-10-c-century-light-stand](https://www.desertcart.fr/products/18628104-flashpoint-10-c-century-light-stand) --- *Product available on Desertcart France* *Store origin: FR* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
