"I'm an ex-machinist who's relatively new to photography. I know tools a lot better than I know how to take a good photo. For an amateur (or even a professional), this is a really excellent product. Macro-rails consist of X and Y movable tables - a ubiquitous configuration in the machinist trade. The X axisgoes right and left, the Y axis is towards and away from the operator. The ones on this unit mo..." Read Full Review »

"I bought this product several years ago to replace an ancient Novoflex focusing rail that wore out. I've hardly used the Velbon for a couple of reasons: The first is that with a heavy camera and lens attached, there's too much up and down flexing in the rails.

I disassembled and modified my Mag Slider when …" Read Full Review »

"I bought this product to replace a double rail bellows I used for critical close up focusing. I am used to using this method for still subjects, but the present project is of moving invertebrates in a "natural" setting, so I have found it difficult to use its functions to keep up with the movement. …" Read Full Review »

"This is a very well made, very sturdy piece of equipment. I've used it for several studio macro shots and it's worked very well. Movement in two axes is pretty handy.
