Calling all photographers...

kath · 11-12-2003

My dad is an amateur photographer - he mainly takes pics of the grandkids, his cats and a lot of desert scenery. He's actually pretty darn good.

Anyway - he was wanting to buy a backdrop for taking pics - like a blue or white screen, something that would be good for Photoshopping the pics. I was thinking about getting something like that for him for an early Christmas present this year.

My question is... any recommendations? He's using a digital camera (not a cheapo... a nice high-end Olympus) if that makes any difference (versus a 35mm). I guess I'm thinking of the background type thing that has a stand so he could set up a place to take pics for the holidays.

I know we have a lot of photographers in this biz so hopefully someone here will have some ideas.

Thanks in advance.
