Item Description
This is a custom-built, compact macro stand, using a “used” copy stand (like new), with new hardware components, that is easily disassembled for flat storage. It is suitable for camera bodies without a battery grip attached and for use with the compact Pentax bellows units such as the Pentax Bellows Unit II (late version), Pentax Bellows Unit K, or the Pentax Bellows Unit III. The optimum lens would be a 50mm macro, but standard 50mm lenses will also do nicely. It can be used with a focusing rail or without any precision focusing device.

If you are not using a macro lens or using a bellows unit with the standard lenses, close focus would need to be achieved using extension tubes or a Pentax Helicoid Extension Tube. The stand sits on four rubber feet, and the attachment screw also has a rubber foot, giving five support points and making the stand exceptionally stable even using a heavy camera body, bellows and Lens.

The Nikon Macro Copy Stand screws directly into the bottom of the upright rail, but it was designed for a wider rail than 5/8. To facilitate a snug fit, a small piece of aluminum bar is required “¼ x ¾ x 3” (included) and is fastened to the rail with captive screws.

Macro Copy Stand (Nikon: PB-6M) Bill of materials:
(1) Nikon PB-6M Macro Copy Stand (with translucent plate only)
(2) Hejnar Photo: Multi-Purpose 10” x 5/8 Thick Rail # G011-10
(3) Hejnar Photo: Clamp Set (back-to-back clamps) # F61BF61-1B
(4) Hejnar Photo: ¼ Spacer Block # SPACER-BLOCK-1-4, (Use between the clamps)
(5) Hejnar Photo: Index Stop Bar (use with bellows)
(6) Aluminum Bar ¼” x ¾ x 3”
(7) Hardware: Screws, anti-twist pins, Allen wrenches

Notes: (See all three configurations in the image set):
(1) To use the stand with just a camera body and lens, attach a bi-directional Arca-Swiss plate to the camera body and mount on the dual clamp set. With one clamp secured to the camera body the other can be loosened to move up and down the rail.

(2) To use one of the Pentax compact bellows units you can remove the dual clamp set and mount the bellows directly to the rail. Use the Hejnar “Index Stop Bar” as an anti-twist device and to allow the bellows lens to stay aligned with the center of the subject stage.

(3) Without a bellows, if you want the added precision of a focusing rail, instead of sliding the clamps up and down the upright rail for rough focusing position, use the additional two (supplied) components and reconfigure the stand using the instructions supplied:

Additional components:
(1) Hejnar 90 Degree Connector Block #G101 (modified)
(2) Hejnar 1 ½ Clamp #P61B
