Although the links currently redirect to the purchase page of the exact product that makes up the system, a future user could buy the same or look for something similar depending on their needs and budget. We provide links to review and purchase each part of the system in its two configurations. We present two configurations for this macro photography system, one for capturing images of adult insects and one for photographing genital structures. Therefore, we think about the possibility that a visitor brings with them a photography system that allows them to capture quality images and that does not imply very high costs. It also often happens that at the time of the visit the equipment is being used by other visitors or by the collections curatorial staff.

Although many of the collections have photographic equipment, this can be very sophisticated, and the visitor may have to invest time of their visit -an often-scarce resource- to learn how to properly use the available equipment. This system proposal arose as a response to the need to photograph important specimens during visits to entomological collections. In the world of macro photography there is a whole range of qualities and prices however, the system that we present in the following pages prioritizes two elements: low cost and portability. Introducing an affordable and portable option for macro photography.
