This patented background system from Lastolite allows photographers to work in ways that were extremely difficult in the past. High key photography "on location" or in tight spaces is easily achievable with the HiLite system. With this background system, you no longer need a light source directly behind the subject. Furthermore, you do not require elaborate lighting of the background to achieve a bright white. Additionally, the subject can be positioned very close to the background without creating distracting shadows. The HiLite background can also be used as a large light wall to create naturally soft lighting. Due to its ingenious folding design, it is ideal for transport. This patented HiLite background is a must-have in any studio.
