Motorised Quad Background Expansion-Drive Set for Seamless Paper or Vinyl Backgrounds

Four backgrounds, one remote. This set mounts up to four seamless paper or vinyl rolls of up to 2.75m and 10kg each, and switches between them from where you are standing rather than from the top of a ladder. Each pair of hooks on the wall brackets takes a pair of expansion drive shafts, and each of those shafts has its own motor. The rolls need a core between 50mm and 65mm. The wireless remote has 99 channels, so every drive can be addressed on its own and a neighbouring studio cannot accidentally move your background. Mounting is the part to plan first. The brackets go onto a solid concrete wall or ceiling only, not plasterboard and not a suspended ceiling, and this drive set can no longer be used on light stands. Check the supplied fixings suit your surface before you drill, and if you are unsure what load the wall will take with four rolls on it, ask a specialist rather than find out later. Set up this way, a busy portrait or product day stops being a series of interruptions. You light the set once, then change background between looks in a few seconds without anyone stepping into shot to do it.
