This black Matthews 40" C-Stand with Sliding Leg, Grip Head, and Arm features an adjustable third leg to accommodate uneven terrain when shooting on location. This flexibility makes this the ideal stand for tight spaces or when working around obstructions.
Sometimes called a "Rocky Mountain leg," the sliding top leg of this C-stand makes secure rigging possible even in restrictive situations. This special leg can be used to adapt the stand to inclined terrain or to safely mount a modifier or fixture on staircases. Matthews's large T-handle knobs give operators an ideal grip for tightly locking down the position of the leg. The stand supports gear up to 22 lb and rises to heights up to 10.5'.
The Road Flags II kit offers a 4 x 4 surface for modifying lighting, making it perfect for highly mobile location shooters. The kit includes "slip-on" fabrics that allow for quick setup and packaging, and additional fabrics are available for instant recovery of the 48"x48" frames. The entire kit can be easily packed into a lightweight, self-contained soft bag that is just 28" x 50", making it convenient for transportation in any vehicle.
The Road Flags II kit offers a larger surface area and more fabric options compared to its predecessor, making it a versatile and convenient choice for photographers.

Newly designed 90 degree Flag and Cutter frames have been introduced to provide more flexibility in positioning the instrument over the set wall or creating a box with multiple units for better light control. The new design features three square corners, unlike the previous design which only had two. The 48"x48" frames have also been updated by removing the mouse ears and squaring off the corners. Flags are frames with attached mounting pins and covered in a solid cloth material, used to control both natural and artificial light. They can be used to protect the camera lens from flares, control spill light, or block light from certain areas on the set. Sizes up to 24"x36" are known as Flags, while larger or irregular sizes are referred to as Cutters. Floppies are Cutters with an additional layer of material that can be attached with Velcro to double the original size. Bottom Hinge is indicated by the number followed by (B), and Top Hinge with (T). All Matthews Scrims and Flags are bordered with heavy duty, colour-coded webbing for easy identification.
The 5.25' Hollywood 20" C-Stand with Sliding Leg, Grip Head & Arm from Matthews is ideal for placing flags, color gels, bounce cards, and silks in front of light sources to block, direct, or modify the light. It can also be used to mount lights or rig any type of gear up to 22 lb. This Matthews stand nests with others of its kind, saving valuable space on sets. It also features a sliding leg to accommodate uneven terrain.
The Hollywood Combo Stand is a durable, time-tested solution for rigging lighting fixtures of significant weight. Lights equipped with junior pins slot directly into the top of the stand, which is rated with a maximum weight capacity of 90 lb. A spring-loaded 5/8" baby pin instantly pops up to transform the Hollywood Combo Stand into a heavy-duty support platform for smaller light fixtures. These units can reach heights up to 11.3', a range inaccessible by C-stands. One can also insert a 4-1/2" "lollipop" grip head into the junior receiver to set high-flying flags or start off a quick goal-post style rig (available separately).
