NiSi NM-200S : The New King of Macro Focusing Rails is here! [ Review & Tips ]
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 мар 2023
- This review video is of the new, recently updated NiSi NM-200S quick adjustment macro focusing rail. The major upgrade to the previous iteration is the implementation of a much more reliable push button on the side of the clamp instead of a lever that completely eliminates any backlash and makes precise adjustments much more effective.

Helpful video. Nice to hear that you feel the build quality is excellent. I have one on backorder from Nisi and very much looking forward to playing around with it. Thanks for making this video.
@@cv4u thanks a lot for your feedback and hope you’ll have a lot of fun using the rail! Cheers
Looks like an amazing piece of equipment for macro work. Thank you for sharing your review and examples. Great review. Thank you and have a great weekend Peter.
Thanks a lot buddy, appreciate it! Have an awesome weekend!
@@peterviragphoto Thank you so much my friend.
Hey Peter, it is a testament to your excellent work that @NISI asked you to review their updated item. Great details as usual. Keep up your great work. 👍🇦🇺👏
Thanks a lot Alex, much appreciated!
That's awesome 💯 Excellent work my friend 🙂👍
Thanks a lot, appreciate it! Have a great weekend:)
Great review! 👍
Thanks a lot!
Nice review! Thanks for sharing, buddy!
Thanks mate! Have a great weekend!
@@peterviragphoto You too!
Hey this was really cool Peter. What a great piece of kit and it’s not that big either. Mate you explained it really well on it’s use. Well done and thanks for sharing 👍🙏
Thanks Adrian. Will be testing it more for videos too when I have some time. Have an awesome weekend mate!:)
Nice review thank you
Thanks a lot Pierre. Have a great day!👍👍
Hi Peter it's great that you share your expertise and this equipment though you think it's quite expensive looked great, the photos were so good :) ~ Anna
Hey Anna, thanks a lot! Hope you guys have been well! Have an awesome weekend:)
Király videó lett! Köszi :)
Koszi szepen Jozsef! Remelem jol telik a heted:)
Thats smaller than thought it would be, great video Peter. Who knew salt would be fun to shoot?.
Haha, yep salt is cool. Wish I had picked larger crystals though, also lighting it properly was very difficult. Cheers
I have the previous version of the NM200 and the only complaint is that it was easy to accidentally knock the lever and disengage mechanism. The push button is a definite upgrade. Not enough for me to buy the new one but it would now make it perfect product.
Hey Stuart. I totally agree. I think the previous version is great as well and some people had issues with the resistance when trying to slide the clamp and/or minimal backlash but it wasn't a problem for me, just had to position the lever midway. Thanks a lot for dropping by. Have a great weekend!

That looks incredibly useful Peter but I couldn’t help noticing at 4:33 that what look like a clamping screw on the plate hitting the adjustment job and reducing movement
Hey Chris, you’re right, but that only happens when I have the rotating clamp turned. The adjustment range is 180mm in the default position. Cheers:)
Hi Peter, how were you able to use the focus rail on your insect subjects? I'd like to try but would think the insects would move around to much.
Hi Dan. That would be extremely difficult, unless they are sedentary species. So 99% of the time I just shoot hand-held while in the field, except for videos where focusing on super tiny subjects e.g. Springtails the rail can come handy. I’d mostly recommend the rail for studio work. All the best!:)
Just got this rail, I also have the 180. Did you notice if the locking screw for the plate had resistance; seems very tight when trying to lock plate in? I contacted Nisi, no help since I did not by from an authorized dealer, to whom I have asked for assistance, but, still no answer. Thanks.
Hi there. Mine was ok, I just wish the knob was larger which would make the whole process easier. Hope you’ll receive some assistance!🤞🤞
So would you recommend using a focus rail in the field instead of studio for bug close up/extreme close up macro photography?
Hey. If the subject is stationery then it can work for sure but I prefer shooting hand-held when in the field and use the rail primarily in the studio. Cheers
I got the NiSi NM 200S after watching this video but the clamp did not open enough to attach the supplied camera plate or any Arca Swiss style plate I had. Returned it to Amazon but the second one had the same issue. NiSi service told me they know about that issue and claimed they are recalling that product. Otherwise it looks great but what is the the use if one can not attach a camera? Is there any quick adjust macro rail except this or its previous version?
I never had any issue and managed to use the plates in both this new updated & earlier version. Sorry to hear, I can totally understand your frustration. The only thing that I can say is that turning the 360 clamp before attaching the camera with a plate helps as it makes access easier. If the control knob was bigger it would make the process smoother as you wouldn’t have to apply as much force to turn it. Cheers
hello Peter. do u miss the xy axis ability. i do see u can rotate the camera but do u miss being able to move along two different axis ??
Hi there mate. I definitely didn’t miss it to be honest as I don’t do much panoramic stitching. Cheers
looks super narrow, is their wider feet you cam get for this? Pretty sure my camera would tip it over.
Hey there. I’ve used it with a behemoth like the 1 DX II as well and it’s fine but I would not use it as a tabletop device, just when it’s attached to a tripod. Cheers
I have been reading some people complaing the the bracket does not open wide enough for the arca plate, anybody else notice this issue? I was about to but this today to replace my 180, but, reading reviews saw that issue.
Hi. Never had that issue, with the first iteration either so can’t comment on that. Wish the control knob was slightly larger but that’s about it. Cheers
Filter size of that Laowa is 67mm and you put 49mm close up lens?
Yes, as I wanted to start testing this yet unreleased close-up lens. Also Used an adapter ring to attach it.
@@peterviragphoto Hi Peter, nice job. Can you now tell us what the lens is?
I received a parcel with Nisi NM-200S. There is play in the carriage, the main threaded axis is not straight, it is bent, causing the movement to run out. Apparently two plastic parts are still stuck. Now the task is how to return this miracle... Don’t buy, the Chinese may do something normally, but every now and then)))
That’s not good damn… you should definitely return it and ask for a new product/refund! Contact their customer service asap, they should be able to help. All the best!
