Impact Super Collapsible Background - 8 x 16' (Chroma Green)

Comments about Impact Super Collapsible Background - 8 x 16' (Chroma Green):

I have noticed that many of the reviews have made comments about the quality of the fabric and the difficulty of breaking it down and as a 5'4" female I found it to be a little overwhelming, but I am able to do it. Without any judgement whatsoever towards anyone else here, I have to say that I probably take my time and treat ever single photographic item I own as if it were the finest china. In fact, I get picked on quite a bit around the studio for my care-taking skills and lack of speed when it comes to breaking everything down. In regards to this Background, I have found it to be an excellent background for the purposes that my studio/location requires. Yes it is big. I haven't measured to see the 10x10 room, but it does feel that way, but I prefer more than less in situations such as this. I carry it with me all the time because of everything that you can do with the Chroma Key Screens, so I am READY! If you have any trouble breaking down this bad boy, then check out all the videos online that offer little tricks for folding the really big backdrops...that is where I got some great tips and tricks. This Collapsible Background does what I needed and it did it at a price that was well within the budget [...] It is with all of that information that I give it the rating that I gave it. Keep Shooting! oo

Pros: I have a small store and also would like to pop this thing up in a customers office when shooting their spot. This works Great. Probably the only Green Screen that could have worked for me. Keys great.

Cons: First time I opened it I tore the skirt away at the corner where it was sewn to the frame. Cheap cloth and cheap stitch. Just don't expect it to be as durable as your bed sheets and you'll be fine.

Awesome for full body green screening for dancing, walking, whatever. Works perfect. Only con is that it's hard to put back in the bag. Don't open it alone. I found myself on the verge of tears trying to cram the thing back in the sack for over an hour[*]

For less than $100 [...] this was an excellent value. The chroma screen is collapsible and folds up into a 3' diameter for easy storage. Expanded, it's 8' high by 8' wide, and includes an 8' pullout. The rigid frame makes it very easy to lean against a wall, and included velcro straps make it possible to fasten to a C-stand.[...]

Needed a green screen for customer projects.

Great size, good fabric, liked the compact format when folded

Not very well made (mine split at the seem between the floor runner and the main section). Need a backdrop stand to get the most out of it. You can lean it against the wall and it's fine but it's better supported by a stand.

Overall a good buy for the occasional shoot - probably wont impress your client tho'

I use this product for location video & photo shoots for trade shows and corporate events. Since purchased I have used this product only twice. Set-up & take down are quick & simple (someone not familiar with this type of "springfold" background may have a bit of difficulty folding it, due to its size) The perimeter spring pulls the fabric taught and there are no severe wrinkles. The floor apron does not fold well and gets unusably wrinkled unless you find a way to stretch it, iron it, or steam it. Overall this is a great product for the price.

Using this backdrop for full body chroma keying. Very easy to setup and tear down and pulls tight on it's own so I never have to worry about wrinkles or creases after transporting it. Great product, would recommend it to anyone doing chroma keying for smaller one-person productions.
