What is the difference between the Doughty Pivot Arm and a magic arm?
They are the same type of product. Magic arm or articulating arm is the generic industry term for a multi-positioning grip arm with rotating ball joints and a locking elbow.

Always ensure the total load on the arm does not exceed the 4kg WLL. When mounting the arm on a lighting stand with a heavy camera or fixture, secure the base of the stand with a sandbag to prevent tipping. Position the stand so the arm extends over one of the stand's legs for maximum stability.
