Top Rated Gear: Botero Backgrounds 037 5x7' Collapsible Double Side Background, Black & White Color: Black/White, Design: Black/White

The Botero 037 5x7' Collapsible Double Side Background (Black & White) is made up of cotton-polyester cloth with steel structure to stand it up. It folds down to a 2 ft circle.

First and the biggest issue is that its only 6' tall by about 5' wide. I built a PVC pipe frame to clamp this to that is 7' tall ( it will be used with other backdrops but specifically this one ) I had to remove one of the sections because the frame was too tall for the backdrop. Not a HUGE issue but if I purchase something that is 7' tall, I expect a product that is 7' tall. 

Second, its a very thin material and light shows through very easily. I used mine outside today and had a lot of light bleed through, it didnt necessarily mess up my shots but for someone else it could be a problem. 

It folded up easily and went back into the bag. 

Other than that, it performed up to expectations. Obviously, the material wont be a problem inside because there wont be light behind it unless I put it there. The missing 1' of height? Well that is something that cant be fixed.

Product isnt too bad, but there are a couple of issues with it.

Ever since I bought my first Botero collapsible, (I have a multi color and the reversible black and white), whenever I have a shoot of any kind bring them along.  You never know who will need a head shot!  They are so light and easy to carry and "unfurl"!  I will be buying another,  extra length floor capability.
Thank you botero!

Love Botero Colapsibles!

I purchased the Botero because the cheaper competitors received a number of troubling reviews. I am very satisfied with this product. The overall quality is excellent. I really appreciate it's light weight and solid feel. It has shaved 15 minutes off of my setup and tear down time for on site head shots. I have no complaints.
