Big and convenient, the 2 things I needed it to be.

I find this muslin backdrop portable, despite its size (and it's pretty big!). It can be scrunched up for the texture option, or left to hang and/or gone over with a portable steamer to get rid of any folds or creases for a flat backdrop. They're also machine/hand washable. I opt for the gentle cycle and low/no heat in the dryer. Black, white and grey provide the necessary neutrals and I can add color via gels or and RGB light if I want. Fabric surpasses paper in durability and reusability and for a portable studio, these are basic and well priced. I have Westcott X-drop backdrops too, but these are larger and still pretty portable when I need something larger. They're also a 1/2 to 1/3 the price. I don't have a static studio location, so everything is on-location. Versatility and portability have to be hallmarks of my equipment. It also helps if my studio components are price effective. Adorama's Glow line of products fulfills my needs admirably in terms of cost and a better than reasonable degree of quality. I appreciate value for my money and Glow provides that in terms of material and build quality as well as being economically priced without being cheap. Honestly, I find the build and material quality surpasses Neewer and Godox in almost all respects at a comparable or better price point.

Overall, this is a great product. I wish the material was a bit thicker.. However, if there is no light source behind the screen, this is not an issue. Thin material results in light weight product and makes it easier for travel.

The material is a little thin, so some editing was required to remove light spilling through from a window (blinds down) behind, but it is definitely worth the asking price.

Good size for hanging vertically and having 10' backdrop and 10' floor. Can also be hung horizontally for a 20' wide background. Photographs well with very little reflection from lights. Any backlight will show through the fabric as it is a bit transparent from the thickness of fabric. Anything thicker tho will add a lot of weight to the backdrop. Over all good for what i need it for at the price paid. Take a min to steam the folds when you first get it.

Very large, wanted the shorter one but it was out of stock. Nice quality for the price and I was able to get the wrinkles out by hanging it up and using a garden air pump sprayer with warm water that I use only for this purpose. Great background for adding textures in Photoshop. I've never been disappointed in Glow products and this is a good value as well.

It very nice for the price, is lightwaight, not too bulky and easy to carry arround. The only 2 downsides for this is that of course, that you'll need to iron it first because the foldings are marked, and second, because of the lightness of the product, its quite easy to see through it. This has not bothered me since once you put a flash on to it you will not see thrugh the fabric. But over all, its very easy to use once you iron it.

The item in overall is very nice at given price with big discount. But it might be thinner than expected. Some people mentioned one may need extra item to be placed behind because of transparency. It looks like cotton. Light, easy to carry. The carry bag is not in tripod bag shape as shown on the photos. It is wide, longer and flat shaped.

Cannot beat the price. A little see through, but if you fold it over, it works well for a table backdrop.

Color is great and the fabric is easy to manage but it is pretty thin.

The backdrop came as advertised. It worked very well and allowed me to create effective contrast for my clients. Just be mindful that you have iron it out as it is folded when packed.

Large enough for singles, coupled and small groups without overwhelming set up

A little bit thin. Some light can pass through if directly behind it. Otherwise nice flat black. It is lightweight and comes with a storage sleeve

Great for the price. I ended up having to put a bed sheet behind it to block some backlighting that was leaking through? although that may make for a cool effect. Great size for a small group photo. Overall satisfied with the color. Thicker backdrops would easily cost twice as much so I am happy with it. It was pretty easy to iron/steam out the wrinkles.

While not as black as a KOYO visible light absorbing flock sheet, I'm reasonably happy with the level of black that this comes in, especially given how large it is. Probably the best quality black background for the money that I found.

Great background. Makes location backgrounds easy for events weddings and such where large groups are being photographed. The blue makes it easy to change the background in post processing.

Works nicely, though you need to let it hang for a bit for wrinkles to settle out.
By John M.
It does work well, and is opaque enough for background clutter to not show through. I only wish I had a curved support arm to run through the sewn edge. plus you do need to let it hang for a bit for wrinkles to settle out, unless you have a portable steamer. It does work nicely for colored light projection as well, be it for mood, etc. I used it for a background for a sculptural piece I built.
Glow Black backround
By JOSEPH L.
love the quality
TheGlow 10x10' Black Muslin Backgroundis a seamless 100% cotton non-reflective fabric richly colored material with a sewn edge on all sides. This length is ideal for full length shot of children and subjects that need continuous, uninterrupted backgrounds. Muslins can be crushed for strong textured background effects, or folded carefully in storage, or rolled on a rod to totally avoid creasing. The background has a sewn 3.5" rod pocket on the top to accommodate a cross pole support system.
Lighting plays a large part in the flexibility of this product. A well-directed cross light across the surface, enhances the depth illusion of the rippled, draped or manipulated fabric for strong subject to background separation effects. It matters not which side faces the camera, as the color is thoroughly saturated and evenly finished. Great for still or video photography, the washable fade-free fabric takes a beating and comes up for more and more luxurious use.
This black version is unique for a secondary function. Hung horizontally, behind the photographer, it serves as a blind for sensitive items that reveal and absorb reflected light, like textured oil paintings, and keeps the colors rich, without influence from other sources of tint.
