"The I.P.S. is an inflatable alternative to mid-afternoon sun, partially cloudy days (which can cause a white balance and exposure nightmare), and battling moderate weather elements. It is intended to be another tool in the toolbox. It was essential that is be compact and, most importantly, affordable. It inflates in 3-4 minutes and deflates in 4-5 minutes. Once rolled up it measures about 40" x 15" x 15" and weighs a mere 40 lbs. Fully inflated it measures 12 feet wide x 20 feet long by 12 feet high. We do make custom versions if you require a different material or different size. The large version uses a 2 ft drum fan that is very quiet and pushes over 2500 cubic ft of air per minute making the walls pretty solid. The flooring is re-enforced for traffic and the material is not going to collapse in the event of a power outage. As mentioned, it takes several minutes to deflate. The fan can also be adjusted to blow on the model is needed. The I.P.S., with fan, starts at ONLY $499. We do ship international."


side note : the site is down since they have to many orders now but its funny that there was some disclaimers and notices to people using the studio -

"It is not recommended that you smoke, cook or have any open flames in the studio. Also lights can become very hot and melt the studio. Do not rest lighting or position it against the sides. Curling irons, hair driers (sic) irons, and steamers can also melt the plastic causing rapid deflation or possible fire."

"For instance, in the event of a "rapid deflation," not to worry! You have at least four minutes to get out alive -- if you remember to crawl and "keep your arms up at an angle in front of you." (Um, okay!)"

"In the event of a thunderstorm, flash flood or hurricane, do not use the IPS as a shelter or flotation device."

This is just too funny..
