Is this screen opaque, more so than a muslin background sheet? I need to setup a shot at a client space with large windows everywhere.

Hi sir, Unfortunately I can't help you because I ordered this item but the company never delivered it. I got a full refund tho.I've bought a black screen and a white one as well and it's not completely opaque but it works well against a wall for example.

good Muslin material is generally much thicker than this particular product however I have not had any issues with this particular product in a very broad range of areas. it's more about properly lighting the screen and the subject then it is about the actual material. I have a high dollar Westcott muslin screen and I have not used it since I purchased this one.

The screens are translucent -- so if you have bright light, it will diffuse the light but not completely block the sunlight. I think it should work as a good block to keep the strong sunlight from "sunbleaching" fabric etc.

I was concerned about the same issue. There is a bag for the screen in side the bag that the screen goes into. The most noticeable crease is the one that goes horizontal through the middle. After it has been setup for a half hour or so, i don't think it is all that visible. I am very impressed with the ease of setup and when you consider the size of the screen, you have to expect something considering the size. My family and I are very happy with the screen, the quality and ease of setup. I hope this helps you.

We have connected two backdrops (one heavy two layer fleece backdrop to block light from behind with a separate muslin backdrop in front) on the full width crossbar with not problems. The manual for the equipment states "Notice: Once your background stand is set up please be aware that some sag in the cross bars can be a common issue based on the size and weight of the backdrop you are using." Additionally it is designed to support canvas backdrops.

I would say no I ended up getting screens that were made of pets and just doubled the screen in the window, didn't seem to block airflow to much and you can't really see in during the day, night time its the opposite you can see in as the light changes but I find that to be the case with almost any privacy DIY things I've tried ...good luck

though this sheet is fairly thick. If you have a light source behind it you will see through it

It's black but you really can see right thru it and it's not darkening to a room. Like regular screens on a window. It really is a good product.

Possible for low light applications where you want the screen to be significantly dimmer. It's a clear red plastic not cloudy, and it's a very dark red. Depending on the brightness settings for your screen and your resolution size you should be able to see through it.

My particular one does not. I understand that you can special order one with black borders and backing. I did not asthe location of the screen did not require it. This screen was installed where light is not an issue; however, there is lightabove and behind the screen that causes the image to fade when the lights are on. I think that if I had installed this overa window I would not be satisfied.

Well, transparent would imply completely see-through. It's sort of semi-transluscent depending on what is behind it. I used the material to backlight a projector image through a window and you could see the image clearly on the other side. Lookingout through the window or into the house however, you couldn't see anything. If it is stretched tight over something darker than the white fabric, you may be able to see underneath.

I just received mine and it is clear. Given the thickness, it's not glass-clear so it does provide some opacity however it's definitely not white. It looks like the painting drop cloths you see at Home Depot (but pay double for). This is a good product, I'm glad I ordered it. We're using it to solarize our soil in the lawn.

I went to Michael's and got a frame that is slightly bigger than the map. I used the black paper the frame came with to act as a background for the little bit of sides of the map that do not reach the frame. you can't tell, and everyone that comes into my office loves it. (sorry that phrasing is a little weird, let me know if i can clarify in any way)

Hi Partybot, I used navy blue over black vinyl. I got rid of most of the black but it does wear through here and there so I would think it would take many many coats to make it highly opaque.

The screen has a anti-glare coating and the only glare I have seen is from bright lamps and direct sunlight.Close the curtains and/or turn off any bright lamps and it's fine. Incandescent lighting isn't a huge issue, although it can bee seen depending on lamp placement.

While the material is black it does not block the view. Looking through this screen is just like looking out of any window screen.

Yes, but everything is blurred. The weave is somewhat open to allow air to flow through. I have a light beige material, but I think the darker color would limit the viability. I just went outside to see if you could see into the windows at night. Absolutely. Probably not a good choice for privacy.

the cover (the whole folder) is translucent not transparent. you can see through the color but it's not as if it's a clear plastic sheet
