Manfrotto 5001B-1 Nano Black Light Stand - 190cm, 1.5kg Load, 48cm Folded

For photographers and videographers who need serious height without the bulk, the Manfrotto 5001B-1 Nano Black Light Stand delivers a rare combination: it collapses to just 48 cm yet extends to a full 190 cm. That means you can pack it into a carry-on, a backpack, or a small studio corner, and still have the reach for key lights, rim lights, or background separation. Built from aluminum, it weighs only 0.95 kg, so it won't slow you down on location. The 5-section design locks quickly and securely, and the reversible spigot adds real versatility—flip it for a 3/8" thread or use the included 1/4" adapter. With a stable 70 cm footprint and a 1.5 kg load capacity, it's ideal for speedlights, LED panels, and lightweight modifiers.

The Nano's user-friendly design shines in fast-paced environments. Its five sections extend smoothly and lock firmly, allowing you to set up or break down in seconds.
