Review on MOUNTDOG Backdrop Background Chromakey Photography by Jack Ford

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Solid value

Bought on Prime Day. I wanted something primarily for video calls, although I'd like to experiment with photos as well. Since it came with 3 different backgrounds I figured this would be a good choice. Setup is easy and intuitive. I tried zooming (in backgrounds and filters you can set it to green screen) and it was noticeably better with a custom background. Depending on how wide your camcorder is recording, it can be difficult to get full coverage. I had to get the background pretty close. Depending on your camera, you can also change the border width. The background is made of fabric and will be a little wrinkled upon arrival, but when used as a green screen for a video, the wrinkles don't matter, I haven't smoothed them out. The stands could be more durable. Indoors I don't see a problem, outdoors I would be concerned. I haven't played around with sandbags but I'm sure they help stabilize it outdoors. The carrying case is for the stand only, 3 backdrops come in 3 separate zipped containers. It would be better if the whole set fit in one bag for easy storage and carrying. Basically I am very satisfied with the kit. It would be better if the whole set fit in one bag for easy storage and carrying. Basically I am very satisfied with the kit.
