Q: 1. can the base footprint be adjusted? if I do not want to fully extend the legs?

A: Hi David,The short answer is no. The triangular footprint is designed to provide maximum stability when the legs are fully extended and the 3 wheels are angled correctly to roll smoothly on the floor. When properly set up, the 3 sets of orange coloured support bars should be parallel with the floor. I bought 2 of these from B&H last Fall and I choose them after months of research. They are build to last, very sturdy and heavy but if you need the mount a monolight and softbox securely, these Matthews stands tick all the boxes. Hope this helps, Gerry

Q: 3. Does this work well outside on a paved or smooth surface, like a sidewalk, driveway, boardwalk, etc

Q: 4. What are the measurements of the base when closed? Can they fit in a lighting bag?

A: A rough measurement around the three folded legs was 28 , about 10 between two legs and the folded height was just shy of 54 . As stated in a previous question/answer, I don't see packing this thing into a case. it's already a beast and adding the weight of a case would be a show stopper (for me). It's built like a tank so It'll handle some banging around. I've used this indoor and outdoor when I wanted a solid base and weight to counter wind. Just hope you're not carrying it far.

Q: 5. I have a space of 128 cm in the trunk of my car that is small. I would like to know if this stand with wheels reaches in that space. According to the specifications says that the length closed is 120 cm but I'm not sure if that includes the wheels or just the column.

A: In transportation mode , I.E. When the stand is collapsed with the wheels folded the total length required to store it would be 133.5 cm. The casters do not come into play because they are attached about 10 cm up the tri-legs. When folded the unit actually stands on the end of the tips of the tri-legs and not on the casters at all. When the unit is in use with the legs extended and resting on the casters, the height from the floor to the top of the collapses stand is 129.5 cm , but I don t think you would be wanting to put it in your trunk this way. In any case all of the measurements are greater than the 128 cm. If the

Q: 7. Would a Matthews Infinity Arm plus this Matthews Hollywood Baby Jr. Triple Riser Stand make a decent tripod stand in for a lightweight mirrorless camera? https://a href= http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1251333-REG/matthews_429627_infinity_arm_kit.html target= _blank www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1251333-REG/matthews_429627_infinity_arm_kit.html/a

A: I'm afraid that you have no very good idea of how big and tremendously heavy the Riser Stand is, so I'd have to say that you'd be insane to use it as a stand-in for a tripod to hold a lightweight camera. Yes, the Stand is on wheels, but better to use a really lightweight stand from any one of many tripod manufacturers, that you could pick and move with a few fingers on one of your hands.

Q: 8. Are all of the column extension sections made of steel?

Q: 9. What is a good travel bag for this stand ?

A: Great question! I ended up trading mine in for a slightly smaller Matthews Baby Jr. Steel Wheeled Stand, so that I could fit it into a Tenba 48 Rolling Tripod/Grip Case. I fill that bag with umbrellas and smaller stands as well and it all fits (but is very heavy). It does have wheels. Good luck!

Q: 10. is the black stand more expensive only because of the color?
