Compact extendable light stands seem like a portable answer to vlog tripod stands for travel photography and camera lighting gear that's small lightweight and easy to fit into luggage, backpacks and camera bags. But they are not. Don't be fooled, These compact extendable selfie stick stands are not stable enough for expensive cameras or lights, flashes, or video lights. I highly suggest alternative compact travel light stands for photography and video as shown in this Youtube video.
