what is the smallest dimension it could be closed to be packed? what is the length of the boom arm closed?

I am estimating about 4.5 feet or a little more without actually closing it up and measuring. The specification for this product says 50 inches but after you attach the wheels I think it will be longer than 50 inches. It is great for studio use but would be heavy and bulky for taking it to locations. The boom closed might be about 50 inches.

The boom arm is telescoping and comes off easily. The legs with the casters on them do fold in but not a tight as when it was shipped. This is a heavy unit and is made more for studio work and not location shoots. Folded, mine fits behind the seats in my van and is at wide as my van.

Boom arm closed is about 53". If you remove it from the stand the stand length is also about 53". As far as packing it goes, the bottom of the stand with the wheels is a little bulkier than the top. Approx 13/14 inches across when closed. I have not used it on a job yet, but have set it up an played with it. All in all seems to be well built. I would say it is a good deal for the price.

The closed umbrella is much shorter than 43", I would estimate approximately 24" long and 6-8" in diameter. I'm very pleased with mine! It's perfect for location work!

Collapsed, it's 39"x19"x12", rounded up to the nearest inch. This would be the size of rectangular box that could hold it. In reality, it's deepest and widest at the end with the wheels. At the handle end, it tapers down to about 3"deep and only about 17" wide. To give an example, my car's tiny trunk has instructions and a diagram to help fit (cram) two golf bags inside, and this carrier fits in the trunk collapsed with a little room for small bags of groceries or toothpicks or something.

Max load weight is 20 lbs and maximum Boom arm length is 7 feet. And it does include the boom arm.

I don't know the minimum height, but the arms definitely won't fit under a low profile desk. You could always leave the arms off, though.

I think it "was" around 5ft square. I threw it away. It was impossible to figure out how to fold back up even with all the YouTube videos and challenges to family and friends. Finally ripped from all the handling. I think if you can keep it open all the time you will be fine.

Outside to outside at the end of the legs when open: 40.125" Folded, front to back: 26.5" Lowest Boom Height (top of end of boom to floor): with boom in shortest position: 21.75", with boom in longest position: 4.125" Folded dimensions: You already asked for one dimension (see above), width: 29.5", height: 59.875"

The opening (which is square) in the closed position measures 1.25 inches between the corners, 1 inch between the sides. That would be the minimum opening size. The mechanism is adjustable to larger sizes that would appear to accommodate frames of almost any size (at least several inches in diameter). The carriage of the assembled stand using a back pack would be awkward in my view.

Gave it as gift but IF my memory is correct, it is about 4 inches closed and 8 inches open.

This tripod is approximatey 1'5" long when closed. BTW, this is a fantastic tripod.

I'm not sure exactly since its backed away but it's REALLY REALLY small packed down... I was very surprised... I've yet to find one smaller

Its dimensions are 5.3" x 4" x 11.1" - close, but not exactly what you need.

Closed, its about the size of an old Palm Pilot, or a slightly oversized iPhone. I Measured it, and it is 3.5" X 10" open, and 3.5" X 5" closed, and about .5" inches thick open.

Hi Jack E... The width is 21 1/2 inchesThe height is 25 3/4 inches And it is only 2 inches thick when it is folded up. I do not have the weight for it but if it's not on Amazon you can go directly to the manufacturers website and get it they also have an 800 number. It is not heavy and it is super easy to open and close. I have had surgery on both of my hands and I can open and close it one-handed. I highly recommend this tool I love it :-) I hope this helps you decide...

I figure it would be around 25 in by 4 in. I have not been able to close mine all the way. I am very disappointed in the product. You can buy the same product at Wall Mart for $18.
