None came with instructions or any printed material at all. I hope I can figure out how to use them. It is not obvious. In particular, I don’t see how to adjust its spring for the weight of the installed light. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good addition to your home studio *by 2***S on June 5, 2024* While this Pantograph is intended for studio lights only, my plan is to affix a hinged ring light and tripod for either a phone or lightweight camera like a GoPro for overhead shots. After receiving it, I realize it is certainly up to the task. It is heavier than expected, so plan to install into a stud/floorboard/truss or, as I'm doing, put it on a DIY rail system. I love that it can be easily raised or lowered without stopping the shoot and adjusting several tripod legs. At this price point, it is a good piece of equipment for a small photographer, videographer, or vlogger who is looking to up their game. ## Frequently Bought Together - DATOUBOSS 2M Drop Pantograph, Studio Lighting Hanging Equipment for Photography Studio Lighting Ceiling Rail System, Live Broadcast, Monolight, Softbox, Reflector, Umbrella (Drop Pantograph x 1Packs) - Selens Photography Studio Wall Mount, Camera Wall Ceiling Mount Boom Arm Up to 22" for Photo Video Monolights, Umbrellas, Reflectors, Overhead with 3/8" 1/4" Thread - LimoStudio [2 Pack] *Extra Strength Wall & Ceiling Mount Bracket, 5/8 inch Stud and 1/4 inch Thread with Screw Tip for Photo Video Studio, Stage Setting, Light Fixtures, Multi Purpose Mount, AGG2801 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/625102018-datouboss-2m-drop-pantograph-studio-lighting-hanging-equipment-for-photography](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/625102018-datouboss-2m-drop-pantograph-studio-lighting-hanging-equipment-for-photography) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-06-07*
