Macro Shooting

[Fraustbyte]

How do you set up  a X pro2  to shoot macro or shoot up real close.

Hi Fraustbyte,

I have done some experimenting and so far the biggest magnification I achieved is 1.81. The setup I used is X-Pro2 set to manual exposure and manual focusing, Micro Nikkor 200mm, 1.4x teleconverter (by Fujifilm) and two extension rings (11mm and 16mm). Light by Nikon SB-910 triggered by Fujifilm EF-X20. You can see the result here: http://eng.roguski.eu/2016/06/26/and-again-macro/.

I have given some try to Fujinon 60mm Macro as well - discussion and results you can see here: http://eng.roguski.eu/2016/06/25/fujimacro/. In the introductory post I wrote "almost switched" - this is why "almost" :-)
