      Comments about Novoflex Focusing Rack Small (Mini):

      I use the product in close-up work. It is nice and small, very compact. However, it is so difficult to turn the dials that the camera shakes terribly. It's virtually impossible to focus accurately.
      I wouldn't recommend.

        Comments about Novoflex Focusing Rack Small (Mini):

        Mounting a Canon EOS 5D MarkII + MP-E 65mm (fully extended to 5x) + Macro Twin Lite MT-24EX in portrait will not work with this rack. The rubber cover of the mount comes loose. Due to the weight the camera can not be fixed tight enoughand the camera will slowly tilt downwards.
        In landscape it works as expected!

          Comments about Novoflex Focusing Rack Small (Mini):

          With my Leica R-8 or Digilux 3 using a 60 mm Macro Elmarit and extensiuon tube it is extremely easy to close-focus on tiny flowers simply by setting the lens focus and racking the camera forward and back until the image is sharp. Far easier than trying to coordinate tripod placement AND lens focus.
