Guide to Optimal Camera Setup For
Maximum Auto-Focus Performance
We recommend setting the camera up so that
the head is about 14 to 17 inches above the
document. This will give you max zoom and
the fastest auto-focus speeds.
12 to 13.75 inches (30 to 34 cm)
1x to 8x Autofocus
Up to 25x Zoom with manual near
focus adjustment.
The AFL-80 is equipped with an incredible 12x optical
zoom. This is a best in class feature typically not found in
a gooseneck camera. The benefit of a full 96x zoom (12x
optical * 8x digital) is that the camera can get up close to
an object without physically moving the camera head.
Many other gooseneck cameras rely on something called
mechanical zoom to zoom in on an object. Mechanical
zoom is the natural enlargement of an image when the
camera lens is moved closer to the object. This is not true
of optical zoom.
96x zoom means you can setup your camera, center your
document or object and simply use the zoom feature to
get up close. No need to reposition the head closer and
then re-center, refocus, etc.
Of course if you wish to move the head around an object
to capture it at angles and unique views then please do!
The AFL-80 will still perform at the top of its class and the
combined mechanical zoom and optical zoom available
in our macro shooting zones will get you up close to your
object.
