That's very impressive, especially for field work!

What setup were you using for the bracketing sequence?

for this photo :
R5 MKII and mitutoyo 10x

for stacking i am using my diy ultrafast rail

Gear info: Portrait: R5 MKii + Mitutoyo 5X APO HR, stacked & panoramic approach (3 panels), ~900 images total, 2–3 minutes for the entire sequence Wing: Mitutoyo 10X APO HR, ~420 images Bee was alive and all shots was taken outdoor :) https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54372033800_e5cdcb53b5_h.jpg ...

i think not because raynox is a little bit smaller comparing to the kenko glass

Here are my test done yesterday Camera R5 MKII and Mitutoyo 10x HR kenko normal mount 70% crop no retouch (only downsized) https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54339501404_59ed275bc2_h.jpg kenko normal by Radoslaw , on Flickr raynox normal mout 70% crop no retouch (only downsized) between raynox and ...

You’ve given me something to think about regarding my sensor’s efficiency… I understand that the only way I can lower it is by a slight push-down (e.g., using a DCR-250), which will reduce the aperture from f/12. I’m definitely ruling out vibrations—I also did tests with a flash. But indeed, I’ll tr...

Hello, This year, for the first time, I plan to use Mitutoyo with a tube lens. The equipment I have includes: Camera: R5 MKII Mitutoyo 5x HR, 10x HR, and 20x Initially, I was using the DCR-150, but it seems that the Kenko NR 05 performs better. I set both the Kenko and Raynox to infinity by aiming t...

Sorry to ask,
Could you share which head/revolver you used for Mitutoyo?
I would appreciate your response!

Hi, Since I've always used Mitutoyo objectives set to infinity (with sigma 180 lens), but after some tests it turns out it's worthwhile to switch to a system of extension tubes and a Raynox, there’s one thing that’s been on my mind: how crucial is setting the infinity point on the Raynox? Currently,...

anyway if someone will be interested of copy i can share full working code and wiring

i start from scratch, there are some small info about aparature closing in binary thata, so i use it, and changing bytes i found out how to move focus forward and backward

i have support, and it slides on mitutoyo lens, but if You want i can send you jpg sequence

The lens has an extension of about 11mm, and in the control protocol, I divided this movement into an effective 4000 steps. It works perfectly up to a 50:1 scale – I haven't tried more because I don't have the appropriate optics. rjlittlefield – I created my own library for controlling EF and EF-S l...

To be honest, this is my main reason – imagine that a stack of 400 photos takes me 12-15 seconds – all in the field.

A Few Words of Introduction For the past 2–3 years, I have been successfully photographing and stacking using the Olympus OM-1 system, always knowing in the back of my mind that maximum detail and tonal range could only be achieved with a full-frame setup. The only thing holding me back was the ver...

I feel like my translation of the problem and solution is pretty bad (my English isn't great :) ). Basically, it looks like this now: Canon R5MKII + 181mm M42 extension tube + Raynox DCR150 mounted "normally," followed by a 50mm M42 extension tube behind the Raynox, and then the Mitutoyo lens. I'm g...
