NEEWER 90-160cm Tripod Boom Arm with Sandbag

Seems to work as it is intended to. Sure helps with overhead flashes in studio.

well Build Quality

Very sturdy. I was surprised by the heft of the counterweight on the boom (not sandbag). Very pleased with the arm. Speedy delivery.

Great quality. Nice weight at the end. Easy to use

Review:This is an excellent beginner boom arm, and honestly even professionals can use this is a pinch. It's not the most durable, secure and strong boom arm, but it does the job so well for the price that this is a no brainer product for a beginner to have in his kit, and even a backup in a professionals kit.The arm has worked perfectly for me in every scenario, and weighting it with the bags was such an easy process.Pros 👍:✔ Easy to use✔ Price✔ SizeCons👎:✘ None!Score:★ ★ ★ ★ ★Conclusion:I would recommend this product

This is an impressive boom arm with removable weights and sand bag. Just overall an impressive performer. The weight can be unscrewed but it also has rubber lining on it's backside which lets you stand the whole stand upright solidly, but also lets you stack them tightly if need be.All the adjustments are well controlled and the knobs feel good to hold and handle. The locking parts lock securely and tight without the need to torque them super tight. Sliding the boom arm for balance or reach is also nice and smooth.The one thing to note of course it eh 5kg weight limit, and the fact that this boom has a good amount of weight on its own even without the additional sand bag---so just make sure at the very least your tripod or light stand can handle all the extra weight other than the intended equipment that will be mounted atop this boom arm.

*** The good 👍✅ Overall Quality: The whoe boom is made of oversized metal tubing. The counterweight, as you can see in the first part of my video, is a heavy piece of metal.✅ Accessories: The "sandbag" is thick and can be unzipped large enough to fit a few books, allowing to add more weight without dust.*** 👉 Other comments🌐 Adjustments: The sliding lock is very sturdy and the tripod anchor is standard.Verdict: I give it a good 5 stars. I find it is well built, does one thing, and does it well.

Big & Thick, it's definitely well builtEasy to attach to another tripodMedium price with supiror valueI have other items from the same company and the quality is second to none highly recommended

Honestly, nothing bad can be said about this product.Sand bag: A nice denier, with bias tape all around, reinforced handle. And if this was not enough, a double zippered pocket on each side.Counterweight: Easy to install, easy to balance, with the boom sliding easily in and out.Female holder: An all metal base, with an adjustable handle that can get out of the way. The angle has positive locking, so it won't move easily. The boom can be fixed in place easily.Boom: Nice hard anodized finish on a decently sized boom. It extracts and retract pretty easily and lock firmly with the all aluminum toggle clamp system.Male baby mount: Aluminum baby mount, with a flat surface to lock your equipment, and a metal 1/4-20 screw at the end (not a cheap aluminum screw)Overall, this is a professional product I will use a lot (once I upgraded my cheap tripod).

This tripod boom arm when using it in conjunction with my C-stand gives me a great way to fix my LED video light so I can get some great lighting. Now I can reach farther with this adjustable boom arm that can be extended up to 155 cm. It as a counterweight at one end that you can also fix a sand bag that is included. I have a lot of video and photography light that I can fix on its universal lamp holder. This boom arm offers me new possibilities for my lighting in my studio. Just be sure to respect the maximum load capacity (5KG) so your precious equipment is safe. Very happy with this product and it’s going to be using a lot.
