Yes
what are the backgrounds made of? vinyl, fabric, paper? Which is easiest to use?
 
That is going to depend on what lighting you have, how hard wearing you want it to be.... loads of factors....

If I was setting up a large perminant studio I would be tempted to use vinyl painted matt black... But for portable stuff I use a cotton cloth...
 
I think paper is very good if you take care of it, either that or matt painted walls/floors and maybe a large sheet of perspex or maybe glass to get that reflective look on the floor.

Take a look at peoples photos, see the effect the background gives and if thats something you're looking for ask them and you'll know what you're after :)
 
I use paper - have a white roll and a black roll. At the end of a portrait shoot I'll cut 1-2m off if dirtied...

They cost around 50 quid a roll so I just buy a new one when I'm getting low.

Works well for me !

cheers

Thanks... perspex sheets are definitely on the list!!

Will have a look at some pics and get some ideas from that/
