Do educate yourself about evenly lighting your green screen though as hot spots can make your chroma key footage difficult or impossible to use. I learned a lot! But the product was fine.

It works for its intended purpose. However, this backdrop is very flimsy and fragile. Make sure to use it indoors because any type of wind could destroy it. Even the zipper tabs broke in half while I was closing the bag. In my opinion it it overpriced for the quality of what you get.

The X-Drop ackdrops are a great addition to a portable studio setup. While nothing is -the- answer, there are a those that fill enough niches that they come closer. Westcott's X-Drop backdrops are portable, versatile, sturdy and have numerous options. The X-Drop Pro exceeds the original X-drop because it accommodates the full range of available background sizes... backwards compatibility. Wait, is this a videogame console? No... :) Nice product. I'd recommend.

Very fast setup but I bit too flimsy to heavy use. Had a Subject step back into the backdrop and it bent one of the support legs. It still works but it's very hard to pull in and out. Not sure how long it will last but it's amazingly fast to setup. Backdrops are a bit pricey but if you want it, you have to pay for it.

I have only had the chance to use this once so far, but I love it already! The backdrop material is much better than I had expected. Almost wrinkle-free out of the package! And this material should be very forgiving! Set-up of the support was relatively easy, but be sure to read the instructions before you start. I'm sure that the next time i set it up the process will be a LOT faster! I was very pleased with the results of the first shoot, even though I did have some lighting issues that were NOT related to the backdrop!

Just what I needed for pictures to drop the background out for sports composites. No funny green tint from a green screen. Easy to use and clean with the outstanding quality expected from Westcott. Will order other colors and types for future shoots.

This is super easy to set up. It's plenty wide. Only downside is that the hooks for the clothe to hang on are plastic. One of mine was broken upon arrival.

Quick & easy to set up, simple and efficient. I will be buying some alternative backgrounds to go with this setup, and potential adapting older backdrops to fit on the X frame.

I was pleasantly surprised the background is awesome. My clients even complimented me on the background. Very easy to use I highly recommended. Looking for more to come hopefully at a better price point.

It was just what I wanted in terms of background design. I had to sew pockets on the corners to convert it to the system that I have. It would be great if there were more background options for the system that I own.

The Westcott Neutral Gray Backdrop is my absolute favorite from the moment I put it up. It has both a rod pocket and grommets so I have options on how I hang it. I put it through the washer and dryer, and it came out wrinkle free. It drapes gorgeously over any box or bench put beneath it. Highly recommend!

Okay I like the new Westcott X drop pro, I have two 5x7 x drops and I would add they are great provided there is no wind. Yes it?s heavier and seems even more stable the footprint of it isn?t too substantial but you will need space. I have black and white 8x13 and highly recommend them but the white gets dirty so much faster than seem less paper so when shooting multiple subjects beware.
