[1x Stand] As I began to evolve my video and still photo set-ups past a simple lifestyle set-up, I wanted to add in a backdrop. This 5x7 option ended up being the perfect option for my needs. It’s easy to pop out and lean up against a wall if you are looking to spice up a room set-up and the Gray Pine is perfect for a blurred background in the distance. I really couldn’t be happy with the way this looks on camera. It’s really given new life to my photos and videos. I will say that it takes a little work getting it folded back up. Once you do it a couple of times, it’s easier, but that first time, I think it took me 3-4 times to get it looped back into the storage sack. The storage bag isn’t the best quality, but the backdrop, in my opinion, makes up for it. This is a very cost-efficient, good looking backdrop.

[1x Bag] The problem with Green and Blue screens is usually not wrinkles at all. It is shine and light spill from the screen fabric to your product or persons. The material on this is more light absorbing and light deadening pretty much eliminating the lighting feedback or spill completely.

A lot of people think that putting more and more light on the screen solves the problems when in reality it compounds the problem. With the Wescott you only need a kiss of light to do the job and to do the job well. The material they use is much closer to a felt rather than a bargain cloth which usually has a built in sheen to it. And that sheen becomes your problem. The Wescott is more like a microfiber cloth that deadens the light that bounces back.

The bigger surprise is you can take it right out of the included travel bag all crumpled up, put it in the drier at lowest heat setting for 10 minutes and the wrinkles are 90 percent GONE!! Unless you are using this and throwing them away, I would recommend this far and above over the other screens made with plain fabrics. Thumbs up!

[1] Both sides super for b&w or color.  Easy set-up and teardown.  Super portable.  Love it!!!

[1] Exactly what it needs to be, nice red color and the wood looks real when photographed. Very pretty and LOVE the collapsible feature.

[Fabric] The size is great, the material is great, it absorbs light, it isn't too bad on color cast for nearby subjects if they are not too close and it doesn't mark up when people stand on it. The wrinkle resistant part is a little suspect, but it works great. I throw it in the dryer for a few minutes to release wrinkles from storage.

[10.035 lb] Heavy duty screen fabric. Some initial packaging wrinkles, but they fell
out easily. Great product for the money and miles above the cheaper
options.

[Yes] I wasnt sure about this when I ordered the backdrop, I wasnt sure how realistic it would look.  I needed a larger backdrop, I have small drapes and such but nothing this large.  The blue looks really good since it does not have the usual folds you can get in fabrics.  The really stand out is the Gray pine up close its not that realistic but in pictures it looks great. The only real down size is that since it has lines you really need to make sure they are either true horizontal or vertical anything else looks a little weird, or least it does to me.
