Hi there, i am looking into setting up a simple home studio, but as i have never looked into anything like this before i am little out of my depths when it comes to selecting the right kit

We recently bought a cheap eBay special backdrop kit at work (£30 for stands and a white backdrop) for occasional use, but the fabric backdrop looks terrible and if very wrinkled

I don't want to break the bank, but equally i want something usable, but there seems to be a minefield of different backdrop materials (polyester, cotton, muslin, vinyl, paper)

So if anyone can recommend either a half decent quality kit setup, or at least which type of backdrop i should be looking at, or the pros/cons of each stype of backdrop

Cheers
 
Unless you want to be ironing/steaming the cloth backgrounds before every shoot then you would be better looking at paper or vinyl roll.
 
Did you buy the backdrop stand off eBay?, I too am looking for an inexpensive option to start me off, just for use in my home.
 
I have bought a mid range one off of eBay, should arrive some time this week, I will put a quick review up when it arrives
