Stabilize your light stand by weighing it down with a Heavy-Duty Sandbag from PortaBrace. This black saddlebag-style bag ships empty and will hold up to 15 pounds of user supplied sand. Constructed with 1000-denier Cordura fabric and durable nylon webbing, the separate interior pouches are double-lined to prevent leakage. The bag features a strap and a steel hook so you can hang it from a support, wrap it around the base of a C-stand or tripod, clip it to an equipment case, or strap it to a light stand.

Uses:

• Preventing the legs of a tripod from moving when a “lockdown” shot is required.
• Adding stability to a tripod – hanging a sandbag from the center lowers its center of gravity.
• Stopping a moving camera dolly on a track.
• As an adjustable base to put a camera on for a ground level shot.
• As a wedge used to level gear.
• As a cushioned knee rest for camera operators or talent.
• As a step for talent to stand on if an increase in height is required.
