The Aluminium Frame Support Kit is a versatile accessory compatible with the Manfrotto Skylite panels, Panoramic backgrounds, EzyFrame backgrounds and the StudioLink Chroma Key background system.
This useful adjustable support can be used in three different ways.
The first is as a handle for the smaller Skylite panels. The handle can be configured to a width of 1.1m, 1.5m or 2m, allowing it to be used on the 1.1m x1.1m, 1.1m x 2m (either dimension), 1.5m x 1.5m and 2m x 2m Skylites. The handle simply attaches to either side of the Skylite’s aluminium frame and provides a sturdy crossbar to be handheld or attached to a support stand using the Manfrotto griphead (LL LA8446).
The second application is as a support leg to support a Skylite, Panoramic, EzyFrame or StudioLink in the vertical position. As with the handle the leg can be used as the 1.1m, 1.5m or 2m length depending on which product the user is looking support. The leg simply attaches to the aluminium frame at one end and the other end rests on the floor. The floor end of the support leg features a useful eye hook to allow the easy attachment of a sandbag for added stability.
The third application enables the user to support a Skylite on the ground at different angles depending on the length and angle of the leg, creating a useful directional fill light.
