5001B-1 - MANFROTTO - COLLAPSED 19.29" MAXIMUM HEIGHT 74.8" COMPACT LIGHTING STA

16 November 2021

Well made and reliable brand

The 5001B-1 and the older version 001B, are well built light stands that fold to an easy to pack size. If using umbrellas, or light boxes, be prepared to hang a weight from one of the lower knobs. There are various water bags or empty bags that can be easily filled on site to avoid travel weight. Manfrotto provides an illustrated spare parts list on its website -even for three models back from the current selling version. They carry spare parts in inventory. I recently purchased a spare part for the oldest version of this light stand when the part was missing from a used stand I bought. I have a variety of larger, sturdier light stands I use when shooting group photos, high ceilings are available, or using my largest light modifiers. These smaller Manfrotto’s are great when minimizing what I need to carry and doing smaller shoots. With weights, they can handle a 60” umbrella, but I stay under 40” to be more solid and stable. Currently very handy for continuous lighting with 30” umbrellas shooting on-site training videos.

Canon 20D sports photography

I upgraded from my Canon 10D. Canon's are great for lens compatibiliy -use EF lenses that date back to the 80's or brand new. Nikon has lens compatibility issues (check out a Nikon 60D at dpreview and see 12 lines about what features work with which lens series) The 20D is lighter and seems more cheaply built than my 10D. I upgraded to get the instant on, faster focus, less noise at ISO 1600, and faster write speed. I shoot volleyball and basketball (courtside -I have a pass) without flash. Although this camera is rated to have better images at ISO 1600 than the Canon 10D I've not seen much of a difference. I've not noticed any improvement in focus speed either (EF 50mm f1.4 lens). The instant on and faster write speed have been handy. Getting 5 frames/sec is handy for basketball and track. If you are just starting out -get the 10D so you'll have more money to buy a good lens.
