Looking to buy a white background

    Hi,
    I'm looking to buy a white background sheet/roll and frame to hold it. It'd be for portraits of my kids.
    I think I'd prefer a roll/not a sheet, like a bed sheet, if you know what I mean.

    My thoughts is that a roll is less see-through and would tend to wrinkle less. If someone sits in a sheet the whole sheet can wrinkle.

    Any thoughts and recommendations please?
    Thanks,
    Pa

    White paper rolls or else a HiLite. Everything else will require lots of light and processing to get rid of wrinkles andcreasess

    I'd recommend the Lastolite Hilite, once you get it setup and correctly exposed you'll just keep getting it perfect every time. I used experiment with sheets/paper rolls etc, but the lastolite just gets it right every time.

    It folds down small and flat for easy storage will easily fit into a wardrobe or slide under a bed, it folds down into approx a 3ft diameter circle

    Tha ks for the replies. I was hoping for a much cheaper option.... But I guess for a perfect background you might have to pay more.
