Do you have a Macro rail?

[dullbird]

Hey Guys

As I'm aware a number of you do macro photography...

So I'm guessing some of you may have rails for your tripod I know Derek does..

What rail do you use??:)

Lou, I have one but don't know the brand - an eBay unit I've never used it so you are welcome to borrow it to try out.

I used one quite some years ago.
The are great fun. Coupled with a flash trigger I got some great photo's.

All long gone now.

RRS Is as good as it gets. Also worth checking out their guides, tutorials an how to's.

RRS is bloody expensive though..I know you get what you pay for but I struggle to pay hundreds of dollars on something I know I wont be using all the time as im not a dedicated Macro photographer

Oi! I haven't used the rail yet so I can't be broken. Oh, wait on....

I've got a fair amount of old Pentax M42 equipment, all in MINT condition (some boxed), don't know what I'm going to do with it, and amongst that equipment is a Pentax Macro Focus Rail 111, still in its original box! It cost around $300 new!!!

Advertise it on the Pentax forum. We Pentax users clamour after good Pentax accessories. M42 lenses work perfectly well on Pentax DSLRs (with the M42-K mount adapter).

Wait...

Just give it all to me. :D
