Kupo Folding Base Mini Stand (013)

Overview

The Kupo Folding Base Mini Stand (013) is a compact, lightweight professional lighting stand designed for low-height lighting applications in film, television, photography, and studio environments. Its foldable base design makes it highly portable while still delivering stable support for small lighting fixtures and accessories.

This stand is ideal for positioning lights close to the ground or behind subjects for background illumination, product photography, and controlled studio setups. The adjustable column allows flexible height positioning from floor level up to 85 cm, making it especially useful in tight or creative lighting environments where standard stands are too tall.

Built with a steel folding base and aluminium extension pole, the 013 combines durability with portability. The base can also be used independently as a very low-profile mounting solution using the included 5/8" (16 mm) baby stud, offering additional flexibility on set.

A universal mounting system ensures compatibility with a wide range of lighting fixtures and grip accessories, making it a reliable tool for fast-paced production workflows.
