Impact Collapsible Background/Diffuser Overview

From Manufacturer

The 5x7' Collapsible Background/Diffuser from Impact is made with translucent fabric and ideal for videos, product shots, portraits, and fashion photography. It diffuses light and maintains a natural look by minimizing harsh shadows from artificial or ambient light. The background can be placed in front of the light source or even overhead to soften sunlight. The self-supporting metal frame automatically springs into shape, allowing it to be set up or collapsed in seconds.

Self-Supporting Frame
The background's self-supporting metal frame stretches the fabric tight, providing a smooth and seamless backdrop for photos and videos. The metal frame allows you to lean the background against a wall or hold it over your subject, eliminating the need to bring a stand on location.
Collapsible Portability
The frame collapses to 28" to fit in the included carry bag for storage or transport.
Attachment Options
Three integrated frame loops made from heavy-duty touch fastener straps allow you to hang the panel from a tripod, stand, or background support.

Impact Collapsible Background/Diffuser Reviews

I underestimated how big 5 x 7' is - its great

I was looking for a large diffuser to even out intense light on skin during sunny outdoor shoots. Found this and I was surprised by the price. The diffuser is high quality and not too heavy to hold above your head. One thing you should know!!!! This is not easy to put back in the bag and you should make sure to practice before trying to put it away at a photo shoot or in front of anybody you want to impress with your photography prowess. (Learn from my mistake...)

A must for EXT hard light...

If you're doing outdoor shooting with hard light - this diffuser is an excellent way to diffuse light and kill hard shadows. I recently shot in the Miami sun and having this diffuser made all the difference. This diffuser is also great for interior lighting setup if you have a large enough light source. Needless to say, this diffuser is huge and takes a little time to learn how to fold in up in it's storage bag. Also, when the diffuser is in its storage bag it's too big to put in a suit case so this 5x7 isn't ideal for traveling on planes. I highly recommend having an assistant and the diffuser for ext photo and/or video. It's possible to using a light stand with a sandbag, but i find that having an assistant hold it is just as good. [I have received this product in exchange for my honest review.]
