| This is a Nikon D70 body, a closeup tube, a PB6 bellows
|
| and a 105 macro lense. A 200mm telephoto works well too,
|
| on this rig. The 200mm allows you to mount the camera
|
| further back from the subject.
|
|
|
| The closeup tube is inescapable, because the D70 body
|
| won't mount directly onto the bellows. The back
|
| end of the bellows bumps into the bulging hand grip built
|
| into the body of the camera. There is no auto-focusing
|
| with this rig and no light metering either. But you don't
|
| need it. You're not shooting film, so you just set a
|
| reasonable F-stop and then shoot and delete images
|
| in a loop, until you get the image you want.
