Irix Macro Rail 180

Description:

In macro photography, moving the camera relative to the photographed object, even by a millimeter, is very important both for framing and correct focusing at the point selected by the photographer. In order to practically reduce the problems resulting from this factor, many photographers use a tripod with a macro rail.IrixMacro Rail 180 is made of a durable and lightweight,black anodized,aluminum alloy. The entire lower surface of the rail has a tripod mount in the Arca Swiss standard -so you can mount it on the head of a photographic tripod without the need for a plate. It is also possible to mount it directly with a 3/8-inchscrew. The rail is equipped with rubberized feetthat allow it to be placed stably on a flat surface without the use of a tripod. The feet can be removed.

A millimeter scale is engraved along the entire length of the rail, allowing for a precise movement of the camera. A similar scale is also applied to the quick-releasemounting bracket, thanks to which moving the camera relative to the object is possible in two axes. A screw on one side of the quick-releasebracketallows you to lock it in the selected position.
