1. Walimex Background Expan + Chain & Weight
For those who work extensively with backgrounds in the studio, robust and flexible equipment is essential for quick and repeated rolling up and down. The Walimex set, consisting of background expander, chain, and weight, is the perfect choice for this purpose.
Background rolls with cardboard cores of approximately 45 to 78 mm can be mounted on the expanders and then rolled up and down using the chain. The counterweight on the chain prevents unwanted snagging, which is particularly useful when using multiple expander sets. The expanders can be easily hung in a wall mount with background hooks (not included). This allows for a quick change of your background setup in a matter of seconds. Maximum load capacity per expander: 6 kg.

2. Walimex Telescopic background rod
The Walimex pro telescopic background rod consists of two separate extendable telescopic rods, which are mounted foot to foot with the help of a spigot. This results in a long telescopic pole that can be extended on both sides. It is supplied in two parts and therefore compact. The two poles are simply plugged together and secured by twisting. The sturdy design enables a high load capacity. The telescopic pole can be extended variably at both ends. To do this, unlock the telescopic system, adjust the length to your requirements and lock it again. The minimum width of the pole is 2.25 m and the maximum width is 4.0 m when fully extended. This gives you full flexibility, especially in comparison to plug-in systems. The Walimex pro background rod is therefore suitable for all common background sizes. At both ends of the background rod you have the option of attaching the rod to a 5/8 spigot connection (e.g. lamp tripod, super clamp etc.). This offers you a wide range of possible applications. You can easily secure the rod with the attached screw. This makes it safe and easy to set up, dismantle or even simply convert. The diameter of the background pole is generously dimensioned at 30 mm in the centre and 28 mm at the sides. This means that the system has a maximum load capacity of 6 kg even at full width. The background rod is suitable for paper backgrounds with an inner roller core diameter of at least 40 mm, for fabric or PVC backgrounds.

4. Walimex 2in1 folding background
Two-colour folding background for mobile use. This folding background is a versatile aid for your photographs - both in the studio and outdoors. It can be used in portrait and landscape format and can also be hung on tripods or walls using the five loops and two enclosed snap hooks. It can be folded down to 65 cm in a few simple steps. A transport and storage bag is included.
Black and white side. The white side of the reflector helps you to brighten up subjects or simply serves as a white background for photos. The black side is an ideal shade and keeps out light from an excessively strong light source. As a background, it is ideal for low-key photography. You can therefore regulate the illumination of your subject very well yourself. The solid, durable metal spring tensioning frame provides the necessary stability, it pops up automatically and can be folded up again in no time at all and stowed away in the transport bag supplied. This folding background is made of polyester, which hardly creases. The 2in1 folding background is ideal for portrait, people and business photography. It also performs well for cropping tasks in product photography with both the white and black sides. It is also ideal as a neutral background for video calls in the home office.

It finds its diverse application in both portrait and product photography, as well as in the video sector.
High-quality craftsmanship - the collapsible background is of excellent quality. Its stitched, extra-strong spring ring ensures a smooth and wrinkle-free background surface. A folding mechanism allows the reflector to be collapsed in seconds. The flexible metal frame keeps the reflector taut at all times. Ring loops on the background frame enable attachment to support systems or background systems. A provided bag is included for storing and transporting the collapsible background, while also protecting it from dirt.

The gray coating is perfect for later integrating textures in digital image editing. The collapsible background is of outstanding quality.
