Re: Portable backdrops

I use a lastolite sytstem to hold the backdrop up and then use a sheet over that which at some point i will get my mum to put a thickr backing onto it so it is less see through but it does work and is a lot cheaper than other systems.. you do need to keep it ironed though LOL

Re: Portable backdrops

Yes I have seen the lasolite stands while surfing around.

I have sheets of various colours and I am fed up with the ironing lol.

i was looking at the collapsable ones like the reflector that folds ups.

seen them for about 130 but wondered if anyone had seen them cheaper.

Re: Portable backdrops

Would it be cheaper to buy the stands, and then go to the market or fabric shop to buy long lengths of fabric? or curtains? Feel free to ignore me i use sheets, and duvet covers and clothes pegs
