as was stated in another thread I'd avoid green screen backdrops unless its for video use. also 105watt bulbs wont be nearly powerful enough.

I don't have this backdrop, but I have some ePhoto light stands and umbrellas. They are very cheap and flimsy. I wouldn't want to use them for professional work where you have clients, but for a hobbyist like myself they work great if you treat them nicely. You can't really beat their prices either.

I guess it's another one of the "you get what you pay for" situations. For light use they are good, but will wear out faster than professional stuff.

Thanks guys!

I was going to build my-self with PVC pips with all possible adjustments and solid base, sturdy width and height and going to cost me $30 but before doing that I wanted to have second opinion!

About Green screen good point I was going to buy one but now I will order more of some pattern background and not solid color ones.
