Q: What is our innovation and why is it better?
A: SMOOTH Ball Bearing Movements
The horizontal arm and vertical carriage glide effortlessly on 24 calibrated metal ball bearings. Smooth all ball bearing movements are beneficial when shooting with high resolution cameras and camera backs.
Other stands, that don't use ball bearings have too much play and don't provide smooth movements.
Q: I already have a tripod, do I need a Studio Titan Stand?
A: In today's dynamic studio environment, a top-notch studio stand is an absolute game-changer. It's not just about offering rock-solid support for cameras of all formats; it's the key to achieving seamless and time-efficient camera positioning that outshines traditional tripods. Imagine effortlessly taking your camera from floor to ceiling in a matter of seconds, traversing the entire studio in minutes, or instantly recreating the exact perspective you captured weeks ago—all thanks to a cutting-edge Studio Titan Stand. When it comes to speed, ease, and precision in camera support, nothing beats the modern studio stand. It's a must-have for anyone seeking efficiency and perfection in their studio work.

For the Aluminum components: Vertical column, Horizontal column, Legs, Die cast carriages, base, cap and head-mount plates. The typical percentage of recycled aluminum metal to raw aluminum metal is 70% recycled to 30% raw. This globally adopted ratio provides good strength and finish. For the Steel components like: circular or square columns, hardware, casters, gears and counterweight. We have confirmed that the steel is made up of recycled materials combined with raw materials. We are not able to provide the actual percentage of recycled to raw on these components. Each product uses a different ratio based on its particular end use.
