We bought this to hang shear cloths over. my Husband is the photographer and he said these stands are adjustable so the background needs to cover the subject that you are photographing.

It depends if you want to have a gathered look or a flat look. Really any size will work. The bar is adjustable so you can use a very narrow backdrop or a wide one depending on what you are shooting. The height is also adjustable.

It will work fine with a muslin backdrop, or a 4' or 9' roll of seamless paper, depending on your needs.

At least 10x10 or larger. It is a beginner canopy but works for our purpose.

You would use 2 backdrops side by sideI ended up buying 2 rolls of tech green screen (about $7 each) because the included backdrops are cloth and i had animals near the set so i didn't want the hair sticking to the backdropHope that helps

I use clamps all the way across and it's perfect. My stand is like yours and I have no problems. I highly reccommend this as an affordable backdrop.

This is a backdrop only. Mine came packaged in a plastic shipping envelope. It arrived in excellent condition and is a very good quality backdrop. I use it for covering things like desks or chairs where I need a solid object, but want to change the appearance of the object in the final process.

This YouTube Video is very good on every size collapsible backdrops. I refer to this often because I tend to forget how to do it. I hope this helps? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKVaz_95RjE

I used this backdrop last year for a Christmas party/portrait shoot. I was really impressed not only with how the backdrop looked, but also the size was great for family/small group shots.

I think the crossbar, if fully extended, might not handle the weight of the vinyl. Not knowing how much the backdrops weighs or the dimensions. I have a 10x20 muslin backdrop and the crossbar is fully extended. It does sag a little, maybe an inch or two. I hope that helps.

I would probably go with a minimum of 35 x 10. I needed to cover a 40' x 10 section and went with 50' x 12 and it worked out great

Ravelli absl stand is much better but it doesn't come with backdrop. Buy your stuff separately. Pick the best items you can afford.

It comes folded up in a small pouch. If you don't mind all the creases from being folded, then use the pouch. After I ironed out all the fold lines, I threw the pouch away and roll the backdrop on a 6' piece of 3" plastic pipe to keep it from wrinkling.

I've used several different backdrops for this particular stand and they have all worked well. However, a few of the backdrops have been heavy enough to make the stand a bit unsteady, otherwise I have encountered no other issues of incompatibility.

The ePhoto is quite flexible but the backdrops are not very big. They are big enough for the work that I am doing, but if you had to include several people in a scene the backdrop would not be large enough. Did I answer your question?

The stand Stands Extend to 8 feet height/Opens up to 10 ft wide and the Chroma Key green Muslin Backdrop itself is 10x12. I discovered that the stand can be adjusted to accommodate a 5'ft green screen for smaller projects. It's a nice stand but could definitely be heavier. I would also recommend getting the adjustable Background Support Muslin Holder Clamps for Green Screen Studio Backdrop Stand. They will help stretch the green screen and get rid of some of the wrinkles if you pull them tight enough.

I couldn't say because it arrived with a broken piece. The collar that tightens the legs down on one of the stands was shattered - either in-transit or it was packed broken. I think it would be sturdy enough to hold a vinyl backdrop otherwise. I have contacted the manufactures to see if they would send a replacement piece, but they haven't responded. I will probably have to just return the product.

Courtni, this backdrop can be used with a background support system, however there are no loops so you will need clamps. We appreciate your inquiry. Alex G

Not if your backdrops are large (6 feet plus). This adds approximately a foot to the width of backdrops.
