Rough Handling

Each package leaves our facility in perfect condition. The Column boxes are constructed using thick cardboard, some packages include engineered plastic walls, end caps and banded protection corners. The column is packed using dense foam to protect against reasonable impacts. If the box is handled roughly it will show signs of transit damage. Carefully inspect all components prior to assembly. If there are damaged parts, do not assemble the stand. If the damage is noticeable such as cracks or bro-ken off parts contact your dealer for exchange. You can also contact Studio Titan America by email with images if you require a second opinion.

Intended use

This product is intended for use by professional and commercial photographers in a studio environment with a high ceiling. The wheels are designed to be used indoors on a floor that is smooth, hard, flat and unobstructed. The Studio Stands with internal counterweight are designed to be used at all times with a load (Camera or laptop shelf or both).
CAUTION: This product is not recommended for use by hobbyists or in a household environment with a low ceiling or carpeted floors. Carpeting or pitted surfaces are not recommended because of the increased rolling resistance which can cause the stand to tip over. If the surface is not ideal, the stand must be moved with CAUTION, very slowly, using both hands one at the top and the other at the bottom to steady the stand in order to prevent the stand from tipping over. If the surface is not ideal, lower the load to waist level before moving the stand. We also recommend the use of a sandbag or weight attached at the base when conditions are not ideal to prevent tipping over. Ultimately it’s the users responsibility to understand how the stand operates and to use the stand within its specification limits, as intended to insure their own safety and the safety of their equipment. It is also recommended to use a short tether cable to secure the camera to the stand in the event that the head, head plate, attachment stud or camera adapter plate comes loose or fails. Please read all documentation prior to assembly.

Theory of Operation

A studio stand is used by professional and commercial photographers to capture images accurately and repeatably.
It provides a rigid and stable platform for professional DSLR imaging cameras.
It allows the photographer to focus on the subject matter and image composition instead of holding the camera.
It provides a variety of creative options that are unachievable when hand- holding a camera.
A studio stand is a tool. It provides the user with added technical process steps that brings out the best in High-Resolution Sensors.
A studio stand reduces vibration which increases image sharpness and clarity. With a head, it allows the user to accurately zero or datum the camera and then maintains camera to subject flatness of field the vertical planes of travel. The flatness of field is maintained as the user moves the stand vertically.

Tip-Over Hazard: Caution must be used when moving the stand to prevent tip over. Move the stand slowly and avoid uneven surfaces as well as low and high-level objects. Additional caution must be used when the Side Kick Arm with load (Camera ) is used in the upper area above the midpoint of the stand.
