Anyone here have any experience with this particular product: Westcot X-Drop 5' x 7' Backdrop, or know of any other product like it?
Edit: 3 Minute Introductory Video
I like the design concept, but I'm a little concerned about durability considering the low price and that it weighs-in at only three pounds. The other type of portable backdrop, the oval-shaped "reflector" mounted to a stand look like a fine choice if all I wanted to do were head-shots. The X-Drop is larger in both dimensions (which I like very much) making it much more versatile in my opinion, and the bottom edge can be used on a table-top to create a seamless backdrop for close-up/product-style photography.
I'm open to other suggestions and wouldn't mind spending more for a similar product I thought was worth the extra outlay.
