If you're looking for a great black & white backdrop for a portable studio, this is it.
I shoot headshots, both in my home studio and on location. I needed a backdrop I can easily bring with me on the road and allowed me to shoot both white or black and everything in between. I also needed it to be a quick setup and tear down. This backdrop met all my needs. Added plus is that it looks to be made as well as much more expensive, similar backdrops. There are no seems in the backdrop and it opens up with zero wrinkles. I own other collapsible backdrops that always have wrinkles. Not a big deal unless shooting in a real tight space but it's nice not to have to worry.
It takes a bit of practice trying to collapse it but so do all of these fold up reflectors and backdrops. It's large so it may be a little difficult to collapse if you're on the short side. I'm 6 foot so I can easily grab both sides to fold it up. But my wife, who is 5'3", had a little trouble.
One added note... this thing can double as a white reflector or a flag. One more can you ask for for a measly $55? I attached a couple of photos I took with this backdrop. The shot with the gray background is actually the black side but with a strobe hitting it to make it gray.
