One of the most important considerations in macro photography is achieving accurate, sharp focus. Modern mirrorless and DSLR cameras feature impressive autofocusing systems, but many macro photographers prefer to shoot on manual focus.
When you focus manually, you can’t rely on algorithms and high-tech camera components. Instead, it’s a good idea to invest in specialized equipment like camera bellows and focusing rails.
Bellows & Focusing Rails for Macro Photography
Bellows units and focusing rails are two common pieces of equipment that macro photographers rely on for capturing their subjects. Both tools make minute camera adjustments possible, but each has slightly different uses and functionality.
How to Use Focusing Rails
A focus rail is an easy tool to use successfully. All you have to do is attach your camera to the rail and then mount the rail on your tripod. Once everything is set up, you can rotate a knob to move your camera forward or backward in very small increments.
If you ever try to handhold your camera for precise macro shots or felt that moving your whole tripod to compose your image was too hit-or-miss, you can streamline your experience with a focus rail.
How to Use Bellows Units
Bellows units attach between your camera body and your lens. They act like flexible extension tubes so you can increase the distance between your lens and the sensor of your camera to suit each subject. Some bellows feature electronic connections for maintaining full-camera functionality while others are purely analog.
Why Use a Bellows Device?
Some lenses have a very close focusing distance so you can get the lens inches away from the subject and still achieve sharp focus. Other lenses have a minimum focusing distance of a few feet or more, making macro subjects impossible to shoot.
Moving the lens farther from your camera’s sensor decreases a lens’ focusing distance so you can magnify small objects more effectively while maintaining fine detail and clarity.
Accessories for Your Bellows Device
A bellows device mounts to your camera and lens, which means you need to use a bellows system designed for your specific lens mount. Many companies offer adapter rings so you can connect different lens systems and camera bodies.
Quality Counts for Bellows Devices and Focusing Rails
Leading photography brands like Flashpoint, Novoflex, Fotodiox, and NiSi produce impressive, durable photography equipment. When you want to level-up your macro photography capabilities, you can start with gear from these companies.
