Sunwayfoto MFR-150S Overview

The Macro Focusing Rail with Screw-Knob from Sunwayfoto gives you the ability to precisely adjust your camera distance when shooting macro photography. The clamp at the top is Arca-type compatible and locks down with a screw-knob clamp. The focusing rail itself has a double-dovetail mount and will fit most Arca-type clamps on the market.

The Macro Focusing rail has both a ratchet handle, for fast and quick adjustments, and a thumb-screw knob along with engraved index marks on the side of the rail for fine adjustments. The CNC machined T6061 aluminum rail holds a maximum weight capacity of 15.4 lb, but may hold less weight once the angle of the rail is changed.

The Type III black anodized aluminum is scuff and scratch resistant, and the finish is also resistant against corrosion. In addition, two focusing rails can be stacked for dual axis adjustments (forward and back and lateral). Located on the bottom of the plate are two safety stop screws to prevent any accidental pulling or falling out of the rail when a clamp is partially open.

Sunwayfoto MFR-150S Reviews

Incredible Bargain

By George
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2024-01-04

I bought 2 of these and arranged them so we an precisely adjust camera position when shooting macros of small medical instruments in the studio. They are incredibly well built and very reasonably priced. We have lots of Foba and Arca Swiss accessories and these are every bit just as good for 1/5th the price. I highly recommend Sunwayphoto products.

Very good for the cost

I'm glad I bought this rail. I like the lower cost of Sunwayphoto products. The little crank is only friction fit, so if you need high quality everything, this isn't it. Otherwise, it works great.

Sunwayfoto also makes this rail with a locking lever instead of a knob. I see B&H does not carry that version. I actually prefer the convenience of the lever, but is the knob actually more secure?
Asked by: Larry
Both are very secure and a matter of personal preference. With the knob, you can apply more tightening force than the lever but of course the lever is more convenient.
