Useful for the studio or when on location, the Small Background Support Kit from Raya handles seamless paper rolls or fabric backgrounds and gives your work a polished look. The kit includes two support stands with a maximum height of 6'. The four-piece crossbar can be snapped together in two different lengths - 4.9' which is suitable for 53" seamless paper rolls or 9.8' which can support 10' wide muslin or fabric backgrounds. The weight capacity is 6.5 lb at the minimum width and 4.4 lb at the 9.8' width.

Two A-clamps are included in the kit to ensure that the seamless remains at your chosen length or to secure fabric backgrounds, while the provided carry bag makes taking the lightweight 4.8 lb kit on the road effortless. Optional sandbags, such as those made by Impact, are always recommended to stabilize your set up.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. are sand bags recommended for indoor use? if so, what weight? thanks

A: Sandbags are always recommended as a good option for ballast and security when using stands or a background support system such as the Raya Background Support Kit (Small), both indoors and outdoors. While there is not a specific weight requirement, I would recommend using two (2) or three (3) 15 lb sandbags on each leg, though you may try to get away with one (1) on each leg indoors. The Impact Filled Saddle Sandbag (15 lb, Black), B&H # IMSBFB15, or the Impact Empty Saddle Sandbag - (15 lb Capacity, Black), B&H # IMSBEB15 would be good options. The Impact Six Empty Saddle Sandbag Kit - 15 lb (Black), B&H # IMSBEB156K, would be a kit of six (6) sandbags you can fill with your own ballast.

Q: 4. What's the difference between this and 'Raya Octa Soft Box for Octa Fluorescent 7 (32")'

A: The softboxes are the same. The Raya Octa Soft Box for Octa Fluorescent 7 (32"), B&H # RAOCOSB80, by itself is specifically dedicated for use with the Raya Octa Fluorescent 7 Socket Fixture, B&H # RAOCOF7, which has a built-in speedring designed for use with the aforementioned softbox. As such, to use the softbox on light fixtures that use the Bowens S-mount connection, the Raya Octa Softbox with Bowens Mount Speedring Kit, B&H # RAOCOSB80BMK, would include a speedring that is dedicated to this softbox, but which would allow the softbox to be used on light fixtures that use Bowens S-mount light modifiers.
