## Summary description

Manfrotto MS0490C is a lightweight lighting tripod stand designed for mounting lights and small accessories. It has three legs, a maximum height of 197 cm and minimum 61 cm, supports up to 1.5 kg and weighs 0.78 kg. Finished in black and red, the stand suits studio and on‑location lighting setups where portability and adjustable height are needed.

## Long description

The Carbon Nanopole Stand is Manfrotto’s lightest Nano stand designed for image makers who need to travel light and reduce kit bulk. Combining an aluminium base with a removable carbon fibre centre column, the stand supports small lighting equipment up to 1.5 kg while folding down to a compact 51 cm for easy transport. Manufactured in Italy, the stand offers durable construction and practical features for on-location and studio use.
Advantages
Weighing approximately 750–780 g, the Carbon Nanopole Stand is extremely lightweight yet stable for its class. Its removable carbon fibre column can be used handheld as a boom for precise light positioning. The compact folded length fits carry-on luggage or most tripod pouches, and the aluminium base with levelling leg and hook for a sandbag increases stability on uneven terrain.
Suitable for
Outdoor and location photographers using speedlights or small LED panels
Traveling creatives who need compact, lightweight lighting support
Studio setups requiring a secondary or portable light support
When it may not be suitable
This stand is intended for small lighting units up to 1.5 kg and is not suitable for heavy lights, large softboxes or boom-mounted heavy modifiers. Users who require very high load capacity, extreme height with heavy gear, or permanent studio rigs should choose a more robust stand or full-size light support.

How to use
Set up the three legs on a stable surface and extend the sections to the required height, using the quick-release twist locks on the carbon fibre column. Deploy the levelling leg if the ground is uneven and attach a sandbag to the base hook when additional ballast is needed. Mount your speedlight or LED fixture on the 16 mm spigot and secure it with the 3/8" thread or the removable 1/4" adapter. The carbon fibre centre column can be removed and used as a handheld boom for fine positioning of the light.

Check required maximum height (up to 197 cm) against your needs
Folded length (51 cm) and overall weight for travel constraints

Usage recommendations
Use the levelling leg on uneven surfaces and add a sandbag in windy or outdoor conditions. For handheld positioning, attach the light securely to the removable carbon column and keep loads within the 1.5 kg limit to maintain stability and longevity of the stand.
