Surfactants and tubes (connectors).

Both depend on increasing the distance between the lens and the camera body, the farther you are between them, the closer you get to the subject. To install the bellows or link ring, remove the camera, then install the bellows or ring, then reinstall the lens by installing it on the front of the bellows or ring of the camera. You must first remove the lens from the body

In comparison between the bellows and the connecting rings, we find that the bellows have more flexibility than the rings, as the distance of the bellows is adjusted from the subject by sliding it on two rails of its own, forward or backward, while to adjust the connecting rings, you have to loosen it a little or tighten it to the camera lens. The link rings consist of three rings of different widths that can be interlocked with each other. One or all of them are mounted together between the camera lens and the body

The depth of field decreases with the use of focal rings and bellows, as they enable one to get closer to the subject than the aforementioned close-up lenses. When you use them, you will notice that you cannot take a sharp shot without the help of a pillar because of the camera’s vibrations, which are similar here in their vibrations to the vibrations that occur when using a telephoto lens

Another obstacle we face here is the decrease in the amount of light reaching the film because of the long distance that the light has to travel to reach the film, which means a significant decrease in the sharpness of the image. As we have seen previously, you overcome this obstacle by compensating for the amount of light, either by adjusting the aperture or by adjusting the shutter speed, in proportion to the amount of light lost.

Other accessories are of little importance compared to additional lenses, which are considered essential accessories in photography. Of the accessories that come after the lenses in terms of importance, we find the lens cover or protector - filters of all kinds - the three-legged and single-legged pillars

Lens hood: Lens hood is available in different sizes and types. There are metal protectors that you have to remove from the lens every time you want to return the camera to its leather bag after use. And there are rubber protectors that you can leave on the lens even when you want to return the camera to its bag. Lens protectors of all kinds provide great protection for the lens and film from glare that damages images.

Filters: We will discuss filters and their work in detail in a later chapter. Now, as a starting point for our talk about them, we say that the yellow filter is preferred when photographing in black and white because it brings rich details to the clouds in the sky, and the ultraviolet filter is preferred when photographing outdoors with color film to avoid exaggerated blue color in

Heaven's favourite. In general, we find that filters made of glass are those made of gelatin, as glass is more durable and does not scratch as easily as gelatin. However, whatever type of filter you use, you have to

Use it carefully and gently, and clean it from dust and fingerprints that may be attached to it. And remember that filters absorb an amount of light that you have to compensate for as recommended by the manuals that come with them, unless your camera's meter is of the internal type (TTL). Here

The amount of light will be adjusted automatically. Remember that the ultra-violet filter does not need compensation for lighting because it does not absorb any amount of light, so its role is limited to preventing ultraviolet waves from reaching the colored film and spoiling the proportion of colors in it.

Stilts We will discuss the pillars later as well. In general, the pillar must be strong enough to bear the weight of the camera and the lenses attached to it, and to hold it steady when using slow shutter speeds. The pillar must also contain a socket to move the camera in any direction steadily without the need to move the pillar as a whole.

Finally, photography equipment is of great importance in improving the quality of your shots. Some of them are very important and others are less important. Start by acquiring the most important thing, but avoid becoming a mere buyer of this equipment. Try to get the most out of the equipment you buy and we will help you and walk you step by step
