Background support

[PatrickO]

Can anyone recommend a background support to take a 2.8m paper roll.
Looking for: sturdy, inexpensive, portable - or is that too much to ask

Thanks, Patrick

This is pretty cheap, HERE but if you already have the stands look out for an aluminium scaffold pole, you can cut in half and get connectors to reassemble when needed.

Just stay away from the Amazon cheap ones. They barely hold muslin backdrops!

Calumet does some reasonably priced own brand units. Make sure you also buy some sandbags as you wouldn't want the whole lot falling on your subject's head!

I have the Lencarta one and it's great value.
