Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of an Angler Collapsible
Background!
Angler’s collapsible backgrounds are compact and lightweight
accessories that are ideal for use in the studio or on location. Made
with 100% cotton, they absorb light and help eliminate unwanted
reflections. For transportation or storage, they easily fold down to a
compact circle and fit neatly into an included carry bag.
Each collapsible background is stretched on a self-supporting steel
frame so that a stand is not needed when leaning the background
against a wall. In addition, the background contains a top loop and
two side loops with heavy-duty touch fasteners for convenient
attachment to a tripod, stand, or background holder. The fabric is
spot washable to ensure optimum performance and long use.
