I didn't expect much for the price, but this was not worth what I paid for it. The "stand" on the back had been put on upside down at the factory, and didn't work to hold the back upright. Since I needed to use the item, I made my own stand to hold it up. I should have made my own with foamboard and construction paper. (This in no way is a bad review of Adorama. I didn't make a complaint since I altered the item to make it work.)

This package has a nice set of colors. Great for small to mid-sized items. Perhaps I'm asking too much for paper background, it'll be perfect if it's washable

I'm fairly disappointed with the background kit. You could get the same results by purchasing different colored paper and attaching it to a folded piece of cardboard with clothespins; it doesn't look or function much differently than that. Don't waste your money.

I had a need for a mini studio to shoot closeups of gems and gold and silver nuggets, this is perfect for closeups.

The product served the intended purpose .. a quick way to set up still or product photography, but it is nothing more than a piece of plastic with a flimsy stand. This is what it's advertised to be, so there is no surprise there. It is overpriced for what it is. The paper that's included is nothing more than construction paper and when photographing on it, shows all the textures of the paper, so for me, it is useless. Overall, it is useful if you have a small area for photography and need a quick and easy set up, but the same thing can be made with some cardboard and tape.

If you're shooting tabletop shots of small items, another component of a successful image is an attractive background. The Ego-sweep is fast to set up, easy to use, and compact to fold up. It comes with a generous selection of different colored paper for creating a smooth background without a visible corner.
The Ego-Sweep is easy to use. Fold out support stand on the back. Choose the paper color & attach to the background clips. Tape the front ends of the paper down if curling is too great. Place the object & arrange your lighting for the desired effect. Experiment to achieve the best results. Keep the object towards the front end of the sweep paper to minimize shadows on the back. Try different camera angles for the best composition.
Now anyone can create great looking professional results in their home. Lowel, the Academy Award winning world leader in location lighting for film & video, introduces a revolutionary tabletop fluorescent Digital Imaging Light & Background, the elegant & easy to use Lowel Ego.
