The Best Mic Boom Arm - Rode PSA1 or Blue Compass?

The Blue Compass can be the best Boom Arm for the Blue Yeti, but the Rode PSA1 can be a Camera & Light Stand. The PSA1 is much more versatile!

Canon 600D DSLR Camera
The main camera I used in EVERY VIDEO I made for my channel so far... BUT it is very old: it doesn't record in 4k (the maximum is 1080p) and the low light recordings are very noisy... There are many better options now. I just purchased a Panasonic Lumix G7 and its 4k image is SO MUCH sharper - even if used on 1080p projects.

I have 2 of these lights, and I use them with sofboxes.
PS: I made a custom mount to hang them.
