Many photographers enjoy having a large camera stand in their camera room.
A camera stand is usually a 6 or 7 foot tall column with a crossbar that raises and lowers with a camera mounted to one side and an accessory tray mounted to the other side. I think this is just fine. You can get quite high and quite low with these heavy and expensive stands. In my case, I have a fairly small studio and space is always a consideration. I have elected to stay with a tripod for all of my work.
