Just a question for those of you who own a lastolite Hilite background, when you assemble it, i'm guessing it has a few crease's in it as would a normal collapsible background, so do the lights blow the crease's out, or do they come out once it's been up for a while and stretched, or can you iron them out before assembling, or do you end up having to PP them out in photoshop, feedback much appreciated :thumbs:
 
The material that the hilite is made from is a sort of latex. There are creases when it is put up but once the hilite is lit you cant see them.
 
yeh, i agree with strax, i was kinda concerned over the creasing of the white background wthin the hi-lite... however, once lit you can't tell... be very careful if you are going to try and get rid of te creases, as with it being vinyl, the surface couldl melt / burn... contact Lastolite for more advice...

Thanks for that Robert :thumbs:

Thanks Dan, i only mentioned ironing as i was unsure of the material, now you've said what it's made of i don't think i would attempt it :D i'm thinking of getting one but my main concern was getting the creases out without having to use Photoshop, and from what has been said this doesn't look to be a problem, i guess i should really go and take a look at one in the flesh :)
 
don't worry about the creases it will be fine....

As for the floor..........
