Thank you for doing this video. Helped me set up my Varipoles a lot.

Excellent, detailed video. You showed me exactly what I needed to know. Thank you.

The rubber cups at each end of the poles will leave a mark (round dark ring) on the ceiling. I suggest placing a small sandwich bag over the end of each pole before putting it in place. Especially if you plan on leaving them in place for an extended length of time.

Great point. I wrapped a small piece of wood in duvetyne where it came in contact with the wall. Thanks so much for the comment and have a great day!

Does this have a spring loaded end like the Autopole 2? No one seems to mention this in their reviews

Built out a kit in B and H and it’s not too expensive. However the shipping costs of backdrop paper??? Literally added 210 bucks to my shipping costs. Oh boy. Lol. Thanks for the video!

I tried to install these in my studio, cement ceiling etc. I thought when you clamp down the handle that the top pole would actually move it up a bit and then clamp down tight. It only tightens around the pole. I moved it a bit to check and it slipped and every time. I want to add 3 paper rolls and I don’t think I’m keeping them. Just my thoughts.

Can you get floor stands for these poles?

Thanks!

Thanks. This is the first I've heard of these. Wish I would have seen this before buying my c-stand.

I’m redoing my home studio now and ran across your review on the Varipole. I’ve subbed, specifically due to your production quality - well done I can’t wait for tutorials on how to improve my game. Thanks for being here!

Wait, you were able to attach a boom arm there on the left?

Great video! May I ask what extension stand did you use to mount the light and connect to the super clamp on the auto pole?

Hey Iann Wu,I actually used Super Clamps with 5/8 Stud pins (www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/824368-REG/Impact_srp_107_4_7_Snap_in_Pin_for.html) to hang up all of the lights in my setup. The only extension unit I used was a boom pole to hold my shotgun mic.

EXCELLENT video. Subscribed! What if your space is like 13' from wall to wall... do they make a 14' or 15' pole? I'd rather ceiling-mount it, than floor-to-ceiling which wouldn't be as useful. Thanks!

@@DeafDirector THANKS. Exactly what I was looking for. It should be sturdy enough to mount like a few CFL lights (without softboxes... I just mount the head itself, less bulk.. haha) and some type of mount for a mirrorless DSLR, I think... mic/arm? I think all of that stuff should be light enough for the total weight.... thanks again, so much!

Perdón si mi español es un poco torpe, pero muchas gracias por el comentario y ¡que tengas un gran día!

Hi - great review; so you have used this from floor to ceiling....how about using this from wall to wall. That way you can place the pole high towards the ceiling and hang lights and cameras for overhead shots. Could this be mounted across a room wall to wall?
