Canon Bellows FL

The Canon Bellows FL is a macro extension bellows accessory designed for use with Canon’s FL and FD mount SLR cameras and lenses, providing continuously variable extension between the lens and camera body for close-up and macro photography beyond the native focusing range of the attached lens. By increasing the distance between the lens and the film plane, the bellows allows progressively greater magnification ratios to be achieved, with the degree of magnification determined by the amount of extension dialed in. The FL designation indicates compatibility with Canon’s FL mount lens system, though it is also usable with FD mount lenses via the shared mount interface. Fully manual operation is required as the bellows interrupts the automatic aperture coupling between lens and camera, necessitating stop-down metering for exposure calculation. A practical and versatile close-up photography tool for photographers working with Canon FL and FD mount equipment seeking macro capability beyond what extension tubes or close-up lenses can provide.
