bellows extension

= reproduction ratio x focal length

= (2-0.5)

X

82

= approx. 123

In

other

words,

you

get

2X

magnification

when

the bellows is extended to approx. 123mm.

To

calculate

reproduction

ratio

with

the

bellows

extension

value

read

off

the

scale

on

the

bellows,

divide

the

lens focal

length

by

the extension value

and

add

the

reproduction

ratio

of

the

lens.

For

example, if the bellows extension is 165mm;

0-5 = approx. 2.5

In

other

words,

approx.

2.5X

magnification

(1.1/2.5

reproduction

ratio)

is

achieved

when

the

bellows is extended to 165mm.

For duplication work

More

precise

accuracy

is

required

for

duplication

work

than

for

general

close-up

photography.

For

maximum

benefits

from

the

Close-Range

Correction

System, the lens should be focused at as close a dis­

tance

as

possible.

For

a

reproduction

ratio

higher

than 1:2, the PK-llA, PK-12, PK-13 and PN-11 rings

are available. Make the extension as short as possible.

For

example,

to

get

a

reproduction

ratio

of

1:1.6,

you

can

use

the

PN-11

(with

52.5mm

thickness),

PK-12 (with 14mm thickness) and PK-13 (with
