If you are buying a Light Stand for your equipment your choice should be made according to the following elements:
Light Stand max and min height
If you need to travel with your equipment you can also take in consideration the folded size
Weight
Keep in mind a too much lightweight stand could be unstable and you could put at risk your equipment. Lightweight stands can be appreciated if you need to shoot outdoor. If this is your case a sandbag is also highly recommended.
Boom arm and boom stands
A boom arm or a boom light stand let you place your light source on a table top and are needed to have the light over your subject without having the stand in front of your lens.
Be careful using those light stands because if your equipment is heavy and the arm is too much extended you risk to bend the boom arm. In any case you have to counterbalance with a sandbag or a weight
In some case you can find a maximum load value. This value can varies upon the arm extension. More the arm is extended more light should be the supported weight
