-Trying to get it to collapsible is kind of a pain, and it doesn't come with instructions on how to do so (though there are some on google)
If you need something that's easily portable and relatively inexpensive I say buy it. But, if you're in need of something more substantial/reliable I would say save up and invest in something better.

I bought the backdrop to use with a bit of location portrait work. I was tossing between this backdrop and the Lastolite (which was more than double the price) however was told there was no difference between the two.
When I received the backdrop I noticed the grey was a fair bit off the colour as pictured on my calibrated monitor (though I did note where it did say colours differ from monitor to monitor) and there were some creases in the backdrop that I don't think would come out and would definitely show up in photos. Wish I had spent a bit more and got the Lastolite version that is crease free. I hope my friend who bought this product too after my recommendation prior to receiving the product doesn't feel the same way.

Comments about Botero #050 Collapsible Background (5x7') (Studio Gray):
I use this for legal depositions. It is sheer, which is a problem. And today it was raining and when I took it out of the bag there were spots on the background which dried as huge water spots that did not come out. It is ruined. I am very disappointed with this product.

Perfect for headshots and 3/4 shots. Gray is easier to shift colors than white. Doesnt wrinkle and collapses into a small 1' circle.
