A multi-purpose light stand with a detachable base that can be used at either ground-level or mid-range heights. The versatile Backlight Stand with Folding Base achieves a working height of just 5.5 inches when mounting the included double-sided stud directly to the folding base. Alternatively, place the extendable column into the folding base for a mid-level height range of 21.5″ to 34″. The stand is suitable for holding a ringlight or vlogging equipment on or next to a tabletop, and can also facilitate low light placement for illuminating backgrounds, providing unique lighting angles, or lighting a subject from underneath or behind. A variety of other grip equipment can connect directly to the base’s 5/8″ baby receiver. Both the stud and the column are double-sided and reversible, with a 5/8-inch stud with 1/4″-20 threads on one side and a 5/8-inch stud with 3/8″-16 threads on the other. This provides excellent flexibility for connecting a wide variety of gear to the stand. The entire kit folds down to just 18.5″ and weighs less than three pounds. All three parts are detachable and the base folds, making the kit easy to break down for transport or storage.
