Kirk FR-3 Macro Rail

Precise Focusing with the Kirk FR-3 Macro Rail

The Kirk FR-3 Macro Rail offers you super fine camera-subject focusing, specifically developed for the demands of macro photography. With an adjustment range of the lead screw of approximately 10.8 cm, you can perfectly capture even the smallest details.

Versatile Coarse Positioning

The coarse positioning of the FR-3 Macro Rail can be done in two ways: by releasing the lock on the rail or by sliding the lower clamp profile in the coupling of the tripod head. This flexibility allows you to easily and quickly adapt to any shooting situation.

360-Degree Rotation for Maximum Flexibility

A KES 2.6-inch quick-release clamp is mounted on the FR-3, which can be rotated 360 degrees in 90-degree increments. This allows you to easily mount a camera body or a lens with a collar and have the freedom to shoot from any angle.

Combinable for Extended Functions

When you combine two FR-3 Macro Rails, you get a powerful cross rail that offers you even more possibilities for the perfect shot. This focusing rail is ideal for macro, panorama, and product photography.

Optimal Solution for Panoramic Photography

For panoramic photography, the FR-3 can be used as a variable nodal point rail to create impressive panoramic images. The laser-engraved scale ensures the highest precision.

Robust Materials and Construction

Made from high-quality 6061-T6 aluminum and 18.8 stainless steel, the FR-3 Macro Rail offers a robust and durable construction. The surface is anodized in black and satin silver, which not only provides an elegant appearance but also additional protection.

Safety Mechanism for Worry-Free Use

The macro rail is equipped with two safety stop screws that provide extra security. This allows you to fully concentrate on your photography without worrying about the stability of your equipment.

Compatibility with Arca-Style Systems

The clamp profile of the FR-3 Macro Rail fits into Arca-Style compatible 38 mm quick-release clamps, and the coupling accepts Arca-Style compatible 38 mm dovetails. Additionally, the rail is QD-compatible and ARCA-compatible, offering you additional flexibility when using different tripod systems.

Practical Storage Solution Included

The Kirk FR-3 Macro Rail comes with a neoprene storage bag, ensuring safe transport and storage. This keeps your macro rail always protected and ready for use.
