Novoflex Portable Macro-Repro-Photo Studio

Novoflex is known as problem-solver for all the Macro and Repro photographers out there. With the new MS-MACRO-REPRO it lives up to its name.

The MS-MACRO-REPRO is a small and modular copy-stand and subject holder. In short: a mobile Macro-Repro photo studio. A typical NOVOFLEX-product. The modular photo studio can be used in different configurations, e.g., to turn small things into great objects, to create reproductions up to DIN A4/US-Letter size, or to digitize transparencies and negatives up to 6×6/2.4×2.4”.

The Macro-Repro-Studio consists of:

• Repro column
• mini tripod leg
• copy – / specimen holder in U-form with installed white translucent plexiglass plate.

The following accessories are available:

• slide- and negative duplicator
• infinity cove MS30
• metal base plate with 2 scaled magnetic strips MS-REPLA.

The repro column has been sized to duplicate templates up to DIN A4/US-Letter size, using a 35mm full-frame camera equipped with a Nifty Fifty or any other lens having 50 mm focal length. The two lateral legs of the U-shaped base frame can be individually positioned (shifted) by means of the rear toggle levers, e.g., to accommodate the slide- and negative duplicator MS-FILMCOP, the MS30 infinity cove, or the magnetic base plate respectively. MS-FILMCOP comes with exchangeable masks to digitize framed 35mm slides as well as 35mm negative film stripes. Holders for 6×6/2.4×2.4” and 6×4.5cm/2.4×1.8” film are available separately.

For the reproduction of plane templates, the white plexiglass plate can be replaced by the metal, magnetic base plate MS-REPLA. The magnetic plate is equipped with a raster, which makes positioning of your originals a child’s-play. MS-REPLA comes with two scaled (cm and inch) magnetic strips, which aid in positioning curled and/ or rolled originals.

The U-shaped base frame is equipped with a precise laser-engraved scaling to achieve reproducible results. To properly light subjects, transparencies, and negatives the NOVOFLEX MS-REPRO LIGHTs (5600K) can be attached to the 1/4“-20 and 3/8“-16 threads present. Positioning of the lights is made easy by the gooseneck arms each light is equipped with.

MS-MACRO-REPRO can be utilized in 2 configurations:

• as a copy stand and
• as a mini macro studio.

The mini macro studio- configuration with the fitted infinity cove makes this the ideal macro- and focus stacking accessory. Want to employ a natural background? Nothing could be easier! Just replace the infinity cove with the plexiglas plate and slightly rotate it. MS-MACRO-REPRO is the perfect addition to the NOVOFLEX modular tripod-system TrioPod and also for all products having ARCA-compatibility.
