The three-section Pro Duty Steel Drop Stand from Savage automatically collapses when it is lifted, making it easy to move from point to point on set. The stand rises to a maximum height of 7' and can support light fixtures and modifiers up to 30 lb.

The general-purpose Pro Duty Steel Stand has all the expected features of a standard light stand, including a rigid steel construction and an integrated 5/8" stud for accepting small light fixtures or grip heads. However, this special design from Savage allows the stand to quickly fold up when lifted and stay folded until it is dropped back down. This gravity-operated functionality also lets the stand instantly redeploy and saves time on set, especially when auditioning the position of lights. The tripod can be locked down along the center column when the perfect placement is achieved.
