Product Description

The Photoflex ProDuty(TM) BackDrop Support Kit includes our new BackDrop Pole, two 2320Y LiteStands, and a rugged carry bag to hold the whole kit. Shoot with confidence with this strong, stable outfit. The BackDrop Pole is a single-unit with telescoping sections that constructs easily with a twist and pull motion to extend each section and another twist to lock in place. The Pole stores collapsed at 4'-2 ". The Pole extends to 12' 6". Each 2320Y LiteStand extends to 12' high. The extra height afforded with these stands means you can shoot your model from a low angle without seeing the top of the backdrop in your shot. These are exceptionally sturdy stands with a maximum load rating of 40 pounds. The "flip-top" design of the brass post adds versatility for multiple uses in your studio. This kit comes with its own durable carry bag.

This backdrop kit is quite sturdy and easy to set up by myself on location. It comes with a carrying case that is especially convenient. I would recommend this setup to anyone looking for an inexpensive kit.

I'm a cinematographer and I often work on documentary projects. I recently purchased this kit so I could set up a black backdrop on location shoots. I travel with a lot of equipment so size is a huge factor for me. This setup packs smaller, yet extends higher and wider than the more expensive kits I looked at. It is sturdy enough so that I can mount a small back light to the horizontal pole in addition to a muslin backdrop. For studio use it might be a bit flimsy, but that's a sacrifice I'm willing to make for portability. It comes with a decent case as well, another plus. So far it's holding up well.

It is not the lightest or cheapest backdrop stand.

The quality is great easy to work with, stable and robust.

It is not really light and the only complaint I would have is that the bag has only a handle and not a shoulder strap (I will probably add that my-self)

Definitely would recommend it
