Lastolite LL LB67WD 6 x 7 Feet Collapsible Reversible Background with Train (Washington/Dakota) Review

I really looked forward to getting this (the 6' x 7') and being able to pop it open, stand it up against a wall, shoot, then spin it back down again and walk away.

That's just not the reality though, and I knew the instant I pulled it out and began to set it up that I'd been taken for a marketing ride, and not a pleasant one.

The hoop construction is too flimsy for the size and weight of the two cloth backgrounds attached to it, and it won't stand at all. It required two people to deal with setting it up, and requires two light stands or similar to hold it up, and of course, they don't come with it.

The photo of the woman holding one end of it is totally unrealistic. That may be a smaller one, but there's no way you can do that with the 6' x 7'.

That was a huge let down. At this point, I wish I'd just bought two decent muslins of those colors and used them as I do the rest; fold or roll for transport and hung from standard backdrop stands. There's just no advantage that I can see for the hoop construction if it's not going to stand on it's own.

The 'reversible' background with two colors is just two separate backgrounds stitched to the hoop assembly, doubling the weight. I guess I just figured it'd be a single sheet of whatever with a color/pattern on each side. As it stands (or doesn't, as the case actually is) it might have actually stood on it's own had it only been a single fabric at half the weight. The alternative would be to use a beefier hoop that can stand up to the weight.

As for the color and pattern, it's good, but really, that's all you get, and that alone doesn't justify the cost.

Bottom line: This was engineered to fail. And it does that with flying colors.

Save your money and just get a couple muslins instead, then hang them as normal.
