Lightboom recommendations

[Joel Arvidsson]

Looking for a heavy duty light pole boom. The most interesting I found so far is the manfrotto mega boom. But I wish to find something little with little more max payload. But im interested to hear your recommendations.

The Maga boom works great. The 6kg payload is at full extension at 3,30m. The lamp attachment is rated for 30Kg. I really dig this thing

Original design was RedWing's.

If you don't mind transporting it, Mega Boom is heavier duty [by far],
and extension, rotation & tilt are all geared.
