I have a 10x20 chroma key green backdrop and it doesn't fit across using all 4 bars. I can only use 3. Is there a backdrop that can fit this?

It really depends on what you want to do. The 10x20 fabric can be used either vertically or horizontally. If it is used vertically it is long enough to be draped on the floor so the subject's feet can be fully chroma keyed. Use it horizontally for groups of people or action sequences. The bars are each about 1 meter (40 inches or so), so 3 bars will be about 10 feet - 4 will be a little over 13 ft. It would be necessary to use additional stands or bars to hang a full 20 ft. width of fabric.

yes you can. all you have to do is use the middle bar with no ends and use two of the bars with the fitted ends to connect the 3 cross bars. hope you understand my explanation. but yes it does.

Yeah, you should be able to use it with a grommet top. The backdrop is sizable

Not sure about a four panel scrim, we use two mega bars for our duo band and the lighting is awesome!

I found this video helpful. It's for a 10x30, but the same principles apply. Good luck! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnvJeRXNsoM

I went to Lowes and got 3_10ft pvc pipes, and using my 9x22 backdrop canvas and have no issues. I'm thinking my pvc is heaver than your paper?

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

You make the bar the correct size and can peel the shade down to match the length of the bar. Very very simple. Corrects only the width of the shade, not the length.

I don't know exactly. I used a black backdrop that was a shower curtain cover and it worked fine. It is a bit "flimsy" but it has worked great for my purpose. I didn't have it fully extended, it was one bar less. It did not sag in the middle. I think this would be good used as a portable unit. For the price it was well worth it for me. I shoot floral arrangements for my web site at my flower shop. Let me know if you have any other questions. Hope this helps.

This thing is tall and wide. Don't think two velcro will do it. Best to secure the background with two light stands with clamps on each side or lean on something sturdy. The background is not heavy but is big.

The stand should work well considering I do use a 10x20 muslin on it. My only concern is the weight of your backdrop. It may bow if too heavy. As for the grommet top, make sure to check the specs of the top tube that it is thin enough to allow your backdrop to move freely. I have to reiterate, the stands are durable!

There is a Velcro strip inside to attach the backdrops. If your is similar maybe it will work.

the backdrop seems to be a very good quality, however for this particular shoot I was looking for more of a blue gray as shown in the picture the grey background would be fine for another shoot but it just wouldn't work for me this time if you're familiar with the zone system I would say this would be Sixor or seven or closer on the grayscale

I doubled mine up...If you do that it should be OK... if you want a better solution, goto a camera store and buy a roll of paper background...No wrinkles and it works great...

Hi Kimberly:You don not need a Green screen. You can use Photoshot CS to remove the background, Clive from EzBackground have a video on, how to remove backgrounds and insert EzBackgrounds in the Photos. You will enjoy the EzBackgrounds, they have it for every possible senario. I recomend the this product, get the set it is easy to work with, Clive is very helpful. Enjoy and happy shooting.

I wouldn't purchase this for a vinyl backdrop. It sags in the middle. The other thing is, if you have vinyl backdrops that are various sizes, it doesn't go up and down, so you are stuck. I use this for blanket backdrops during newborn sessions and it works perfect for that.

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.

These cross bars should work with any stands or backdrops. As you can see in the photo, each side has a hole on the end to mount the bar onto a stand and you screw the end of the bar tight to secure it.
