Phottix Studio Pro Boom Stand WAH220 - 4m Aluminium Boom Stand with 2.2m Arm, 8kg Load, Counterweight

Overhead lighting setups often require awkward positioning of stands that can intrude into the frame or limit creative angles. The Phottix Studio Pro Boom Stand WAH220 solves this by providing a robust, height-adjustable boom arm system that allows you to place lights exactly where needed—above your subject, over a set, or at challenging angles—without compromising stability.

Who is it for

This boom stand is ideal for studio photographers, videographers, and content creators who need precise overhead lighting control. It suits portrait, product, and fashion shoots where a traditional straight stand would be in the way. Whether you're using strobes, softboxes, or monolights, this stand handles the load with ease.

Tips

When moving the stand, collapse the boom arm and legs, and consider adding optional wheels for easier transport in the studio.
