The Manfrotto 272B is a black three-section telescopic aluminium support for suspending a photographic background between two suitable lighting stands. Its 112–298 cm range, low 0.92 kg weight and universal 9.5 mm attachment make a portable studio quick to assemble in both compact and wider spaces.
An adaptable crossbar for portable backgrounds
This lightweight black aluminium support forms a crossbar between two suitable lighting stands. Three telescopic sections make it quick to adapt the working width to the available space and background.
Compact for transport, quick to deploy
The 272B collapses to 112 cm after the shoot, making it easier to carry between studio and location. Durable aluminium keeps the weight to 0.92 kg, while the black finish remains discreet on set.
Flexible mounting on lighting stands
A universal 9.5 mm top attachment and support for pipes or columns from 20 to 94.5 mm in diameter simplify different studio configurations. The 298 cm maximum extension provides room for wider paper or fabric backgrounds.
