Teleconverters in macro
Hello gang, I am wondering.... If I use an 1.4x teleconverter, it increases the focal length by 1.4 Meaning, when I use an 10x Mittu on my Canon 70-200 and one 1.4x converter, my magnification ends up at 14x? I think 1.4x tele is a good choice since it only take 1 f/stop Not sure if my calculations ...

Re: Shutter speed vs magnification
The solution I think is to use the Live view mode together with the silent shooting option (EFCS) Electronic Front-Curtain Shutter You can read this article (use the google translator if you don't understand Spanish) I did read some of the article and I did some Google as well. Found that a possibl...

Re: Shutter speed vs magnification
Does "live view" means that you are using electronic first shutter curtain but mechanical second curtain? If so, then be aware that the mechanical second curtain can induce motion blur that gets worse with faster shutter speeds. The underlying cause is that when the second curtain starts to close, ...

Re: Shutter speed vs magnification
My setup is Canon EF 70-200 f/2.8 with Mitutoyos on StackShot
It's set on a Manfrotto 055x proB and 410 geared head
The floor is concrete in the basement. No draft down there
That table you showed

Re: Best BD option for 50x on FF?
I was reminded of this recently and decided to try it again. I am not sure why my initial impression of the ring light was so poor, because the ring light gives me what looks like very acceptable epi darkfield illumination with my mitutoyos. This is how the ring light looks: Do you have a type id o...

Re: Shutter speed vs magnification
Hi physicsmajor, Thank you for your quick and clarifying answer I will study my images, looks like it's some kind of motion blur When I do my next run I will increase the ISO to get faster shutter Have done many without any at 5x, but when I do 10x or 20x it looks like motion blur Thanks for your ti...

Re: First image - crustacean in DF
Hi imkap,
I think this is a good start
It seems a little bit dark/under exposed on my calibrated screen
Keep up the good work and keep those images coming

Shutter speed vs magnification
Hi good people,
Is there a calculator, table or formula that tells the safe shutter speed vs magnification?
From experience I've learned that you need a faster shutter speed at higher magnification
I always use live view and mirror lock-up

Re: Weevil
Hi,
To my eyes, I prefer black background as I think the colors pops more on black
Well, that's what I think
All the best from Norway!

Re: Novoflex Focusing Rack
Hi,
Thanks for great response!
I stay with my StackShot a while longer.. I have to live without the blue button
Don't think it's worth spending 1900€ - and maybe not that much better
Thanks again!
All the best from Norway
