Jinbei M-1

The Jinbei M-1 aluminium boom tripod stands out for its versatility, robustness, and high-quality workmanship. The studio tripod, made of durable and resistant aluminum, adapts flexibly to all requirements on the set with its large action radius.

A special highlight of the M-1 tripod is that it offers three tripods in one. It can be used as a lamp tripod, a simple camera tripod, or a boom tripod. It shows its strengths especially in portrait, beauty, fashion, or product photography. In its function as a lamp tripod, it provides many alternatives for attaching light sources, flash holders, umbrella tilters, or hot shoe adapters for clip-on/system flash units via the reversible 5/8 inch spigot adapter with 3/8 and 1/4 inch external thread. It can become a camera tripod with a smaller ball head. The center column of the tripod is adjustable in height between 135 and 395 centimeters, and the individual sections are locked by means of screw locks.

The lamp tripod transforms into a boom tripod when you pull the upper section out of the underlying tripod segment and fold it to the side using the boom joint as a boom arm. With the boom stand, you can realize a wide range of lighting variations without the stand getting in the way. Light can be positioned from the side, diagonally, directly frontal, from high above, or very low near the ground. With the up and down tiltable boom arm, you can quickly place studio flash, flash head, or continuous light in all positions.

The robust aluminium construction with central struts ensures stability under load and holds up to eight kilograms. To balance the attached load, use the included sandbag, which you fill individually and attach to the end of the boom arm for optimal balance. With the separately available Jinbei JB11-036 tripod castor set, the M-1 boom stand becomes a rolling tripod that can be conveniently moved to the desired position in the studio or on location.
