Macro Photography

Close-up lenses and focusing rail for your Macro Photography needs

Macro photography is a fascinating photographic discipline, that allows you to creatively shoot every day objects, wildlife, plants and more in close-up detail. NiSi have recognised the growing popularity of this art-form in recent months and have developed a series of high quality, reasonably priced accessories to allow more people to explore macro photography.

You can enjoy NiSi quality and the experience at a fair price thanks to our unique business model.

Close-up Lenses

As you will have come to expect from NiSi, our close-up lens range are all manufactured using professional grade materials. The frames are of an aluminium construction and house the double achromatic optical elements, designed to significantly reduce the purple/green fringing you may find in cheaper solutions. The lens grade optical glass is Multi-Nano Coated for greater clarity and sharpness and to facilitate easy cleaning.

NiSi Macro Focusing Rails

A Focusing Rail is an essential accessory for macro photography as precision and stillness are vital when shooting at high magnification. Constructed in CNC machined aluminium and with a host of features usually found in more expensive rails, we have delivered a professional grade product at an everyday price.

You can use the rail on a table top or simply unscrew the feet and mount it to your tripod. The rail is compatible with the Arca-Swiss dovetail mount and the underside is compatible with ¾” and ¼” tripod mounts. Check out our Macro Focusing Rail NM-180 and Macro Focusing Rail NM-200 to discover the impressive list of features that set this rails apart from other, pricier, rails.

4 Way Macro Focusing Rail

For the most demanding photographers who need a versatile 4 axis movement, and the possibility of 360° panning, we recommend the purchase of two NiSi NM-180 rails or two NiSi NM-200 rails . The perfect compatibility of the two slides allows unlimited freedom of movement, with top of the range features, high quality and an irresistible price thanks to the NiSi model.
