![]() Most cannot focus close enough to get into truly macro magnifications and might be better labelled "Close Focusing". It's become common for manufacturers to add a "Macro" label to a lot of their zoom lenses. The prime lens simply has fewer moving parts, a smaller number of lens elements and is a lot less complex. Pretty much all true macro lenses are primes, because it's much easier to build a high precision prime lens, than it is a precision zoom lens. you are mixing up certain terminology in a somewhat confusing way.Ī zoom is a lens that changes focal length (eg., your 18-55 and 55-250).Ī prime is a fixed focal length (eg., your 50mm). But, please read my additional comments about using extension tubes, below.įirst, to clarify. With a set of three tubes, you get a total of seven different possible arrangement. I recommend the Kenko or Adorama sets (of three different size tubes) as the best values that are still very easy to use. It's just too long a focal length for your particular purposes, when mounted on a crop sensor camera.)Īny lens' close focusing ability (the problem with your 50/1.8 ) can be increased simply by adding a macro extension tube behind it. (This isn't to say that the 100/2.8 Macro lens isn't good. On any crop sensor camera, a 100mm lens act as a significantly "longer" telephoto. Also, Canon and others design some lenses to only be usable on crop sensor cameras. ![]() This has to be considered when choosing a lens, unfortunately. The smaller sensor models - like yours - are commonly referred to as "crop sensor" cameras. Your camera has a smaller sensor than a full frame camera like a 5D MkII or a film SLR. In fact, you will likely be stopping down quite a bit to get more depth of field.Īlan Myers "Walk softly and carry a big lens."ĥDII, 7DII, 7D, M5 & others. You don't really need a large aperture lens for this sort of work. When you have to shoot 100 items and need to take 3 or 4 views of each one for the customer to select, you really don't want to be running back and forth arranging things. The main reason to use these shorter focal length lenses is that they allow you to work close enough so that you can reach out and arrange the items while keeping your eye to the viewfinder. I can control the plane of focus to either get the entire object in focus or deliberately narrow it to emphasize just one aspect. I prefer tilt shift lenses for this purpose for the reason given already. ![]() If shooting with full frame, I'd prefer a 75mm TS lens, but Canon doesn't make one. Personally I use 45mm TS-E for small product/tabletop shots, when using crop sensor cameras. Two operator remote stop buttons are available near the table height adjustment for safety and two built in fork pockets allow for easy loading and unloading of the machine for layout flexibility.īuilt in the USA with premium quality components, the Pallet Hawg Pallet Dismantler is designed for low maintenance costs and service.For this type of shots a 100mm macro will be too long on your crop sensor cameras, unless you like working from a step ladder and/or have a really big studio.Ī shorter macro like the 60mm Canon or Tamron might be a good choice. Two removable wheel cabinets allow for easy access to the two 27” bias ply tires and blade guide assemblies for maintenance. A mechanical blade tension system ensures proper blade tension at all times unlike other dismantlers that use air or hydraulic for blade tensioning. Due to the unique combination of high torque and low RPMs, the bi-metal bandsaw blade running at 2,200 fpm has an expected blade life of up to 1,500 dismantled pallets per blade which is nearly double the blade life of competitive pallet dismantling saws. A pneumatic table lift has preset heights with 5-1/2” of travel below the blade to enable quick and convenient shifting between upper and lower cut points to easily adjust for block pallets, stringer pallets, or specialty pallets and skids. Average production will vary per 8-hour shift but the PD200 is designed to dismantle approximately 400 pallets per shift with one operator. ![]() Two easily removable pass back bars located above the blade allow for a quick transition between a two person and one person operation. ![]()
