Q: 2. Before I return this boom to B&H, when i received the boom, all these small metals studs fell out of it and the boom will not tighten completely. Is this normal??

A: No - that's not normal;send it back. It's a great piece to have, but it shouldn't be falling apart out of the box.

Q: 3. Do I need anything additional to allow boom to swivel/raise/lower on my stand? I saw one comment saying you needed to buy a grip head...

A: Nope...it has it's open 5/8 receiver. So as long as you have a sturdy C-stand, you're good to go. A drop pin adds some extra versatility and Safety cables are always advised. Both are cheap add-ons.

Q: 5. Which stand best suits the avenger 600 b

A: This is a good boom, I like it a lot, good quality and heavy-duty (which you wouldn't guess from the name mini ). Due to limited space in my studio, my favorite stand by far is Photogenic PHTA34MS58 8' Light Stand with 19 Caster Base. Works great with this boom. The caster base is heavy, the wheels roll very smoothly, and the small footprint is wonderful, so much nicer in the studio than the typical tripod light stands (been there done that, I replaced them all with these 19 caster base Photogenic stands).

Q: 6. Does the baby pin receiver fit into a junior receiver on a combo stand? It looks like it should but isn’t mentioned in the specs.

A: Yes the outer portion of the receiver on this boom will fit a junior receiver.

Q: 7. how much weight will this item hold ?

A: Not sure what the limits are but I have a 8lbs light and 55 inch octabox and it holds well at 45degrees extended 2/3 out and 1/3 on the counterweight (2 sandbags). YMMV.I''m more wary of the vertical light stand stud that this sits on.

Q: 8. How much weight can this arm support at its minimum extension?

A: I typically use this boom with Bowens monolights and anything up to a 40x60 softbox, which combo weighs around 12 lbs. I would typically have between 4 and 5 feet boom length from the fulcrum point to the head (implying around 20 - 30 of extension of the internal bar), with around 18 counterbalancing length on the other end and between 20 - 25 lbs hanging from the hook (I would use an Impact CT40 MB turtle stand or similar for the base). There's almost no deflection in the boom in those circumstances and the whole rig is rock solid. I would fairly confidently suggest that with less extension than I use, the fulcrum point more centered and with similar counterbalancing weights, you shouldn't have any problems. The rig will manage higher weight with ease - it's a very solid boom

Q: 9. Can the 40 arm hold a Mola Setti and Strobe?

A: Hi Sean,I use the 40 arm to hold a 22 Mola Demi on an Einstein strobe. The Avenger stand and arms are built like tanks, so I unless your strobe weighs a ton, I can't imagine the arm or clamp would be challenged. Don't forget sandbags for the base if the arm is extended. Best regards.

Q: 10. Will the Matthews Pin with Collar - 6" also work with this stand?
