This portable background support features metal collars with an aluminum crossbar and uprights with a black finish to cut down on reflections. The air cushioned uprights have three sections with the diameter of 33mm for the largest section. The uprights extend from 44 inches to 120 inches (10 feet). The crossbar has 4 sections. It extends to 130" when all 4 sections are connected. As little as two sections can be connected allowing the use of backgrounds that are narrower than 10 feet. This is especially useful in confined spaces. The sections are very easy to connect...just slide in and twist. Included is a heavy black nylon carry/storage bag that features "zippered" closures and a nylon carry grip. These features are usually only found in background supports that are at a much higher price point. No tools are required. Blue background material pictured is sold separately.
