Hi guys,

I have two lightstands but usually only shoot with one light and a reflector.

My heavy duty lightstand I use for my softbox/umbrella leaving the other lightstand unused.

However I'm looking to use it to attach my reflector to so I dont have to use an assistant(my wife) to hold it for me.

Is there something invented for this or has anyone a clever and cheap ideas of doing it.

The reflector is one of the common 5-in-1 circle ones.

Cheers

Dan

You mean one of these? ( in this case from Lencarta)

Available in most places that sell such stuff for about £20-30...
 
Yeah that'd be perfect, not as crude as a bulldog clip that wont stay on.
 
my general rule is if it moves when it shouldnt I use black nasty (gaffer tape)

(the other half which isnt relevant here is that if wont move and should i use wd40 .... and a lump hammer)

Keep your eye's open in the classifieds section. Thats where I bought my 5 in 1 and boom, a few weeks ago, I have seen a few appear in there latley. Or you could put a wanted request in the wanted section of the classifieds.

Edit: PS they come with an adjustable clamp that fits onto a light stand.
