The 4-section Padat 300 Compact Light Stand from Phottix rises to a maximum height of 9.8' and, thanks to its reverse-folding leg design, breaks down to a space-saving 34.6" that's conveniently flat for packing. One of its convenience features is its four air-cushioned sections that gently lower your light to avoid impact damage. The Padat 300 has a 5/8" top stud for matching receivers and will support gear weighing up to 11 lb.
