Negative Positive
Title: Not worth buying.
Review: I got a pair of these when I first started in photography 2 years ago. They have been ok for most of that two year span, but today on a job, after I set up my Canon 580EX II atop of one of them, one of the 4 people I was photographing politely pointed out that the light stand pole had receded into the stand slightly.I felt like I had gone professionally impotent in front of the entire room.Apparently, one of the adjustment knobs that locks the extended pole in place, had just stopped being effective. How hard is it to manufacture a reliable screw?I recently replaced the cheap umbrella adaptors with adaptors from Manfrotto. I'm going to do the same with my two light stands.Save yourself the embarrassment and buy a good quality stand from the outset.
