Q: 6. How much weight does this stand hold? Also, is the cross bar heavy duty?

A: The crossbar on this pro version is rated for 38 pounds.

Q: 7. What would be the benefit with the pro backdrop support kit? Would the non-pro be more beneficial for portable use vs studio use?

A: I own the pro version and the main difference is the weight it can hold on the crossbar. The non pro version is only rated for 20 pounds where the pro version is rated for 38 pounds. I have the 140x105 paper backdrop and could not imagine the non pro version being able to hold it. My thought is that if you are investing in something that you need to be over 12ft wide then I would get the higher weight rating.

Q: 8. How do you think this backdrop will do if kept outside in the rain? I will use mine only outdoors and it is convenient for me to just leave it set up there with heavy sandbags. But if it will get ruined quickly, I'll just have to bring it in. Thanks.

A: Since I have not left my back drop out side, through all types of weather, I can not answer your question truthfully. I have looked over the two tripods and the cross bar and I think the enamel coating would be safe from rust from rain and snow - I think, but I can not say for sure. The possible concern for rust would be the threads of the screws for the tripod sections and the holders at each end of the cross bar. I can not tell if they are galvanized, or resistant to moisture. If you are concerned for possible rust, you could possibly wrap electrical tape around the exposed threads. This would probably not be so easy to do on the screws that secure the cross bar. Just my opinion, no guarantees. The construction of the back drop is sturdy and well made.

Q: 10. Can the cross bar be shortened to any length. Could it be used at, say, 8 feet? Thanks, Jeff
