Westcott has just launched the Easy Boom ($299.90), which promises to be a game-changer for studio photographers and videographers. The Easy Boom features a 26-inch boom arm extension, allowing for precise positioning of your lighting equipment. With a full range of motion and 360-degree rotation, this boom arm is perfect for any studio setup.
The Easy Boom supports up to 15 pounds of lighting gear. Its brass bearings ensure smooth movement and easy placement of the light at any height or angle. However, despite its robust design, the Easy Boom is compact and lightweight, making it ideal for studios with limited space. This new tool is designed to simplify lighting setups and enhance your creative workflow.
Versatile counterweight options
Westcott has equipped the Easy Boom with a sliding counterweight system. This allows the boom to handle lights and modifiers of various types and sizes. It comes with a refillable weight bag that can hold up to 15 pounds, a weight plate bracket, and a clamp for optimal stability.
Safety and reliability
Safety is, of course, a top priority. The Easy Boom includes a 39.5-inch braided safety wire and a steel locking pin to keep equipment secure. These accessories make sure that any lighting gear remains safe during shoots.
Easy mounting and adjustments
The boom arm features a 5/8-inch stud for mounting lighting gear and a 5/8-inch receiver, making it compatible with optional C-stands. Its durable construction should give years of reliable use, while its compact design allows for effortless vertical adjustments.
Price and availability
The Westcott Easy Boom is available to preorder now for $299.90 and should be shipping soon.
