[QUOTE="hark, post: 546953, member: 13196"] The rail I chose is the Oben MFR4-5 Macro Focusing Rail. I'm not sure this one has been mentioned previously here on Nikonites. It is solidly built--didn't notice any play or creeping although it was positioned upside down on my tripod. The gears were clean without any grease or noticeable lubricant yet both rails moved without any trouble. I could feel the ratcheting of the gears as the rails moved front/back and side-to-side. It has an Arca Swiss QR plate on it. It's the first time using that style although I prefer my Manfrotto QR plates on my tripods. The rail has some weight to it. Overall, I am very pleased with it so far.
