Rochester Resources for macro equipment

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Is there a good source in the Rochester, NY area for good used
photogrpahy/microscopy equipment?  Hopefully a place where I can also
get some selection advice.

I'm photographing coins using a standard macro lens (Canon EF 100mm F2.8
Macro USM) on a Canon 5D body.  This is working great for 1x
magnifications.  I also want to get magnifications from about 4x to 40x.
I've decided the most flexable way to accomplish this is to mount a
microscope objective on a bellows.

All the equipment I need is available online.  But, since this is all
new to me I would preffer to handle and inspect the pieces  and
hopefully get some advice before I buy.

Is there a source in the Rochester, NY area for used equipment?  The
things I'll be needing are microscope objectives, a t-mount to RMS
(microsope abjective lens mount) adapter, bellows, and possibly t-mount
extension tubes.

I'm in the middle of a project photographing the collection of the
Rochester Numismatic Association (RNA).  Our web site is at
http://www.the-rna.com.

Thanks,
Tim Corio
