Review on Manfrotto 1004BAC Master Stand Black by Mike Snedeker

Excellent light stand. I am adding more light to my kit and need an extra one. This is my first Manfrotto product and the hype around it is backed up by the quality and durability of this product. The only thing I didn't like was that it didn't come with a carrying case. Just as I expect a shoe bag with my expensive shoes, I expect a suitcase with such a well-known and high-quality product. I understand though and I know that they "sell" a pretty good case that can hold up to 3 light stands. Eventually I may upgrade all my tripods to Manfrotto and hop around just in case.
