42 Inch Counter Depth Refrigerator

This stand was better than expected. The legs spread very wide which makes it quite stable with a 42 reflector, even without using a counter balance. It meets my needs admirably and with minimal cost.

our refrigerator is covered with them!

I use this umbrella with a strobe light or one SB800 Speedlite. I also have the 42 inch in a different brand which I use with two speedlights.

I just switched up how I light single and double talent interviews this year.  I already had a Chimera 42 inch X 42 inch frame on hand so I ordered a Chimera 5142 1/2 Grid Cloth as the first layer of diffusion on my old school ARRI Fresnel key light.  Just in front of that I hang a Chimera 5162 72 inch X 72 inch 1/2 Grid Cloth for additional softening.  With a Matthews 4 foot X 4 foot Black Floppy for negative fill, I then add a single back light positioned and flagged for rim and shoulders.  Great results for interviews.  Chimera has a great crew and offers stellar customer service.  Really stoked about this new set up.

Holds a 42 inch TV without any trouble and makes it easy to change the viewing angle as needed.

This 65-inch umbrella is my next step up from a 42-inch octabox. Wow, it is a big step! I love the soft light it generates when combined with a single front diffuser. I use a Godox AD-200 with the bare bulb attached. Plenty of power for portraits at f5.6 and lower (using native ISO and minimal shutter speeds). Lightweight and decent build quality, but only for use inside, as the slightest breeze will take down large umbrellas. Everyone is awed at the large size, yet it breaks down into a compact unit for storage.

This very portable reflector can be used anywhere light control is needed. Mated with the 42 inch version makes a nice light control system anywhere. Very well made and easy to transport.

I bought this item for a 42 inch TV which I lost the power cord to and I couldn't be happier with it. Worked perfectly for the TV!

I've been a fan of Photoflex LiteDiscs for years using the 42 inch White/Silver frequently when shooting studio portraits with strobes. Lately I've been shooting flowers by available light and found that the Litedisc provided a bit of fill quickly and easily. I've bought several disks so that I can choose the smallest size needed for the occasion. I also use the white side for a background at times. The disks are well made and collapse easily into durable, zippered storage bags.

A very sturdy light stand and reasonably priced. I use it with my 42 inch reflector and it holds it well inside, outside I recommend weighting it down with a sand bag. I also use it with an external flash and a 43 inch umbrella inside and with sandbags outside. It is perfect for my use as a photo enthusiast. I would recommend it to a friend.
