Thank you astroNikon. I have 430ex, I just wondered overall what the best method would be.

Thank you to everyone who has offered suggestions.

I'm looking for a photography backdrop stand and am willing to spend a little bit more to get good quality and ease of use. I've been researching and the reviews on most places have about 50/50 good/bad, so I'm not interesed in taking that chance. It seems the Flashpoint mentioned above may be an okay option. I saw that Cowboy studios had a triple crossbar but the reviews were not satisfactory. It would be nice to something that I can preload and switch easily as I will be alone. It must be on a stand, not wall mounting, for portability.
