The telescope system is, in my opinion, a great thing for the little home "Studio". Especially (as in my case) for product photography, macro and still life a worthwhile purchase, I think. With ~ 2.5 to 3kg photo cardboard rolls are Walimex Studio Tetenal background carton (1,35x11 m) Thunder Grey in 1.35 m width also not too heavy for the Walimex Telescopic system. For professionals, the system may not be the ultimate, to me as an ambitious amateur, it is sufficient, in this combination, completely (!) Out. Stability / structural stability and resilience are for indoor use and with the aforementioned combination, in my opinion, quite sufficient. Even with brocade 1.40mx 3m I have to have a positive experience. I was thrilled this background system - and it still does.
