Neewer ST005 Boom Arm 56-96cm Extension for Arca-Type Tripod with Sandbag
Product Description
The Neewer ST005 Boom Arm is a telescopic horizontal extension arm designed for photographers and content creators looking to capture precise overhead, flat-lay, or low-angle shots. With its Arca-type quick release base and robust aluminium construction, this boom arm makes it easy to integrate into most tripod setups while offering smooth and stable performance.
Perfect for product photographers, content creators, food stylists, educators, or DIY enthusiasts, the ST005 is ideal for top-down recording, unboxing videos, or tutorial-style filming. It provides the flexibility needed when working with DSLR or mirrorless cameras, and is also compatible with smartphones (holder not included).
Standard tripod setups often fall short when it comes to overhead or flat-lay compositions. The ST005 solves that by extending up to 96cm and offering a 360° rotatable ball head, allowing you to position your camera exactly where you need it. With a built-in bubble level and a scaled pan base, angle adjustments are intuitive and accurate. The integrated Arca-type quick release plate streamlines setup, while the included empty sandbag acts as a counterweight for stability during extended use.
Built from durable aluminium alloy and fitted with removable locating pins, the arm is tough enough to support up to 5kg of gear while remaining compact and easy to transport. Whether you're working in a studio or on location, the ST005 delivers the control and flexibility needed for high-quality results.

Common Dos and Don'ts
✓ Do use the bubble level and pan scale for accurate alignment
✓ Add weight to the sandbag when using heavier gear for better balance
✓ Use the quick release plate for fast transitions between tripod setups
✓ Remove the locating pins when you need broader compatibility
✗ Don’t overload beyond 5kg - it risks damaging the arm or affecting stability
✗ Don’t operate without a counterweight when the arm is fully extended
✗ Don’t use outdoors without proper anchoring - wind or vibration can shift the setup
✗ Don’t force the ball head when adjusting - use the knob for smooth rotation
