I have just received a Lastolite collapsible Reversible Wyoming/Mississippi backdrop without the instructions as to how you fold it up after use? I have tied myself in knots and am about to throw it out the window - help!

lol yeah the twist is the pain, hold either side with ur hands, then twist one side forward and the other side back and it should fall into a smaller circle.

Dead easy.


Fold it corner to corner then twist your hands in opposite directions.

just in case some of you guys dont reguarly buy AP, in the feb 11th issue there will either be a free handheld collapsible reflector or an autowhite balace card thingy for digital cameras. If I get the white balance card does anyone want to swap it with the reflector? :D I know, a bit cheeky seeing as I'm new here but if you don't ask you don't get.

I subscribe to the mag so don't know which one I will get till it drops through the post, and I don't even know what white balace is (well I do really but I have no use for the card), oh, and I'm a tight Scotsman :D
