Comments about Westcott Westcott Green Screen Digital Photo Kit, with 5' x 7' Green Screen, Wall Mounts & Software:

The first time I used this the green screen ripped. I am an adult and I was using it with adults. The software for it to be useful at all you needed to spend more money to upgrade. I feel like I was ripped off. A waste of [$]. Save your money!!!!

Comments about Westcott Westcott Green Screen Digital Photo Kit, with 5' x 7' Green Screen, Wall Mounts & Software:

alot of the color corrections you need the upgrade for. And i keep getting a green halo around the subjects head and the help button doesn't really help me to fix it,
but it is very easy to use and the back drops are cool and you can change them easy
but it is weird that the export button is the save for the pictures
but is is perfect for kids pics and baby pics and is wonderful for photography hobbies and fun to use
easy to self learn to use

Comments about Westcott Westcott Green Screen Digital Photo Kit, with 5' x 7' Green Screen, Wall Mounts & Software:

This software offers numerous background fills, very lightweight background material,disappointing results, many "extra" features locked out to be purchased in an expensive upgrade. You'd be better served to spend the money on a decent background and equipment. It will serve most casual photographers well, but not for the serious.

The kit is good for someone to learn what green screen photo is about. If a person has a little experience with green screen photography than they need to buy a better kits with a larger green screen and more backgrounds.

Cheap way to get started

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Westcott Westcott Green Screen Digital Photo Kit, with 5' x 7' Green Screen, Wall Mounts & Software:

I had no problem in using the product and getting good results. You will need some additional lighting. Basically you have to light the green screen and subject seperatly, so there are no shadows on the screen. I used a couple of the cheap clamp on reflectors and 100 watt compact florescent bulbs to light the screen, and bounce flash to illuminate the subject. This worked very well.

Comments about Westcott Westcott Green Screen Digital Photo Kit, with 5' x 7' Green Screen, Wall Mounts & Software:

Photo Key Lite===You really need Photo Key 3 to get the job done. Green screen is on the small side. Software works well but only as a starter kit. Example: It doesn't include Text writing. The company in England is outstanding if you have a problem or a concern. Wescott is not as supportative. Go for Photo Key 3 and get a larger green screen and you will be set. It's fast and does the job.

Comments about Westcott Westcott Green Screen Digital Photo Kit, with 5' x 7' Green Screen, Wall Mounts & Software:

A great low cost entry into the "Green Screen" World...My goal is to never ever do a non-green screen backdrop again...it is just fantastic...have already upgraded to their pro version. No more wrinkles in the backdrop...fewer on-location trips...adds realistic shadows...takes backdrop out of focus.....WOW!
love it!!!!

PhotoKey 2 Lite

Not full version

Photography, Portraits
Describe Yourself:

Bottom Line:

Comments about Westcott Westcott Green Screen Digital Photo Kit, with 5' x 7' Green Screen, Wall Mounts & Software:

Dollar per dollar this is a great buy, You get PhotoKey 2 software, 5 x 7 green screen and 100 backgrounds, screen is great for portraits, the 100 back grounds are all kinds of things and very nice. The PhotoKey 2 Lite software is not the full version and your unable to do a few things from the full version, You can upgrade to the full version for another $75 ,that upgrade seemed a little high to me since you can get the Full version of "PhotoKey 3" for $110 and it does so so much more than Photokey 2 , but your looking to get started in green screen for the first time this is a great buy.
