<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jaelus, post: 2121340, member: 46237&quot;]In looking at a lot of copy stands, I found that the cheap ones are too short and the next price tier up either have mixed reviews due to build quality or are sturdy but bare bones. Common complaints were cheap bases made of particle board, key weight bearing components made from plastic that wear out or break quickly, and mounts that don&#039;t support the camera adequately and cause it to sag so that it doesn&#039;t face straight downward. A few companies had really solid copy stands with nice features, but they weren&#039;t cheap.</p><p><br /></p><p>After some searching, I found a bargain on a used Beseler CS-14 copy stand kit with copy light arms, lamps, and reflectors. It&#039;s got a metal base board and an adjustable mount with counterbalance, so it looks very sturdy. So, I should be all set now. Thanks everyone for the input. I&#039;ll post updates once I&#039;ve got everything set up.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
