Light Stand for Diva 400

Matthew's Hollywood Beefy Baby Stands are my favorites for the Diva 400.

When out-of-town I usually just rent C-Stands, but if I need to air transport them I'll use Avenger's A0035B Baby Alu Stand 35 with fly-away sand bags.

Generally I avoid Avenger gear because I can't get it repaired on the West Coast, but prefer the longer baby-pin on top of their aluminum stands to the other brands'.

On another note, my preferred method of mounting Divas is to grab the lollipop near the baby receiver with a 2.5" grip head, much like it's done with the 4Banks. This allows greater tilt when the light is rigged vertically.

While my favorite grip heads are American's, the inexpensive Avenger's are my choice for Divas. They have a hole that perfectly fits the Diva's lollipop, & the baby receiver is threaded in two places which makes it easy to mount on cine, or photo, light stands, which often have different length baby-pins.

These are black, but mine are chromed.
