Matthews 20" C+ Stand with Turtle Base and Grip Head and Arm, Chrome, 4-Pack
Over the years, Matthews Studio Equipment has revolutionized the world of lighting support with their innovative C-Stands, first introduced in 1974. Known for their durability and versatility, these stands have become essential tools for professionals in the motion picture, television, and photography industries. The 20" C+ Stand with Turtle Base and Grip Head and Arm, available in a convenient 4-pack, exemplifies Matthews' commitment to quality and functionality.The term "Century Stand" harks back to the early days of film production, when stages relied on natural sunlight and large reflectors to illuminate sets. These reflectors, often 100 inches in size, were pivotal in shaping the lighting techniques of the time. As technology evolved, so did the need for more adaptable equipment, leading to the creation of the C-Stand. Matthews' original design featured welded bases that, while non-adjustable, could nest together seamlessly, maximizing space on set.Today, the C+ Stand continues this legacy with its unique features. The staggered leg design allows for tight nesting, enabling multiple stands to be positioned closely together without interference. This design also includes a sliding leg, perfect for use on uneven surfaces such as stairs or curbs, and even on elevated areas like desks or countertops. The removable turtle base enhances portability, making disassembly for travel straightforward and hassle-free.Crafted with a chrome finish, these stands are not only robust but also aesthetically pleasing, ensuring they blend seamlessly into any professional setting. The included grip head and arm provide additional support for lighting and modifiers, offering flexibility and precision in positioning. With patents applied for and pending, Matthews' C+ Stand is a testament to their ongoing innovation in the field of lighting support equipment.
