26-inch Boom Arm for Studio Lighting

The Westcott Easy Boom is a 26-inch (66 cm) extension arm built for photographers and videographers who need precise overhead or angled light positioning. It supports loads from 14.1 to 15 lbs and provides full 360-degree rotation for versatile studio setups. The arm is constructed from aluminium, steel, brass and plastic for durability.

Sliding Counterweight and Weight Bag Included

A versatile sliding counterweight system lets you balance different light fixtures and modifiers along the arm. The package includes a refillable weight bag that can be filled on site, and the bracket also accepts optional weight plates for heavier configurations. This system keeps the lighting angle steady while you adjust the boom height.

Clamps to Standard Stands with Brass Bearings

The arm mounts via a sturdy clamp and weight-plate bracket that attaches to common light stands. Brass bearings inside the rotation dial deliver ultra-smooth 360-degree movement without binding. Installation is straightforward, but you must ensure the stand base is heavy enough to counter the 14–15 lb load at full 26-inch reach.

Questions about this item

Will the refillable weight bag or optional weight plates need topping up over time?

The sliding counterweight system uses a refillable weight bag or optional weight plates to balance loads from 14.1 to 15 lbs; refill or adjust the bag whenever the arm drifts from level.

Which part reaches its limit first when the arm is fully extended at 26 inches with a heavy fixture?

The 26-inch reach combined with the 14.1–15 lb capacity means the boom’s structural leverage is the first constraint; stay within the stated load to avoid flex.

Does the 360-degree rotation dial or brass bearings generate noticeable heat or noise during all-day studio use?

The arm relies on passive brass bearings and a mechanical rotation dial with no motor or electronics, so it produces no audible noise and no measurable heat during continuous operation.
