Manfrotto & Macro
Posted: Wed Feb 23, 2005 9:26 pmI have been asked about what I use when taking macro photographs, other than the lens so though I would post some pics for everyone.
The first image is the Manfrotto macro arm. As can be seen you can mount 2 flash units, if required, and the arms are adjustable. The platform that the camera attaches to can be swung up to the portrait mode and the whole platform can be slid to one side to offset. This is actually quite good for panos.
The next 2 images show the Manfrotto micro slider plate. The lever next to the thumbwheel can be used to move the whole assembly quickly for rough focus. The humbwheel gives 1mm of movement for each turn of the wheel enabling accurate focussing.
