[Fabric] Great for a quick background set up for portraits - very robust and easy to use!

[Fabric] Picked it up on a dealzone special. I am very happy with it. If you light it correctly the white is white and the black is black. Like all spring steel it takes a few tries to get the hang of folding it but it works very well.

[1] Nice, realistic-looking background. I lack the manual dexterity to fold it, however. I mean that I CANNOT fold it. I can build you a house and fill it with hand-made fine furniture. I can disassemble, repair, and reassemble your iPhone. Or your car. But I CANNOT fold this background. Yes, I've watched tons of videos. My bad, not Lastolite's. Going on Craigslist soon.

[1x Bag] This is an easy to use, easy to transport plaster & brick wall. I was able to quickly satisfy a client looking for a grundge feel to their portrait without having to scout out a location, transport my equipment and deal with the Northeast weather in March. Natural looking shadow on the brick gave a realistic look to the shoot. I purchased all four Urban backgrounds and they all give my clients the look they are seeking while making things easy for me by keeping everything in studio.

[1x Bag] This 5x7 collapsible is a great addition to my kit. As a videographer and sometimes photographer, having this large background is nifty for when traveling and/or quick gigs like portraits or social media spots. I'm going to assume that most people who are looking for this item are familiar with what it is so let me talk about what makes it 5 stars...

- The polyester muslin fabric reflects less light and is spot washable
- 6 colors - green, blue, black, white and 2 grays
- Velcro straps at the top and sides are a plus
- The carrying case has a large clear window
- It does NOT look or feel cheap

This backdrop is a great buy and a very affordable price! I'm a fan!

[I have received this product in exchange for my honest review]

[1] Excellent Product, very useful and made of great quality and it doubles as reflector as well.

[1] I wanted to make portraits with a black background. After learning about subject to background distance and exposure I was still getting unwanted details in my background. This product filled the bill perfectly. I'm now learning about white background and how to light the white side of this to produce a clean look. If it isn't lit directly the white side turns out grey, due to flash fall off. It is a bit challenging to fold up again. My long arms help, but it does take some doing to get it back into the bag.

[1x Bag] This dome works so well with my Flashpoint Zoom Li-On X R2. I have used it to shoot red carpets and events and it knocked the images out of the park!

[Fabric] This is the missing element in making flashes on-camera not a challenge. Beware if you are wearing the camera on a sling it can and will fall off and you become sad

[1x Bag] Just used this for photo shoot last week and I love how the background looks. It really looks like a brick wall with missing plaster.
