C-stand for camera tutorial Parts of a C-Stand However, I keep seeing tons of bloggers telling people this is THE way to do an overhead shot and many of them are not using the C-stand properly for their camera. So this post is to show you how to do it properly if you really want to use this method.
There are 100’s of items that are made that can attach to a C Stand arm. There aren’t a lot of ways to attach a camera, because of what I mentioned above.Brown, Blain (2002).

However, when I’m doing overhead food photography, I always pull out one of my C-stands to keep my camera over the food. I’ve found for me, they give me a very sturdy platform to hold the camera while also giving me lots of adjustability to get my camera in just the right position.

Not only does this provide some weight to counteract the camera hanging off the other side, but it also helps to keep the C-stand from moving when I accidentally bump it when I’m positioning the food. This always happens at least once during the shoot.
