Manfrotto 1004BAC stands connect to each other for easy transportation, and an air cushioning protects fingers and mounted equipment. A wide footprint of 106cm allows for great stability.
The main features of the Manfrotto 1004BAC Stand Master Light Stand include:
Aluminium stand, air cushioned. 4 sections, 3 risers
Maximum weight capacity: 9 kg
Top attachment: 1/4" screw, 3/8" screw, 5/8" (16mm) stud
Something that wasn't mentioned in the product description is that these mic stands inter-lock (and can be released with the push of a button), which makes it easy to carry several at once in one hand.
The fit and finish is all excellent, and the included adaters to go to 3/8" thread (for mic clips etc) make life very easy.
I have tested these stands a little at the workshop, and look forward to deploying them for my up-coming classical recordings.
I bought the Manfrotto 1004BAC stands as a cover-all to replace my 1052BAC and larger heavy stands. The 1004BAC are noticeably heavier, but you expect that when they reach over 3.6m tall! I am hoping that these will be all I need for any situation now. I love the way they clamp together, which makes transporting them in their bag easy and hassle free - something important to me. I hate juggling stands on location!
