I hope that all the recent drama will subside and we can get back to why we all migrated here in the first place.
Just a public thought... :)

OK, I'm totally in the dark here, there are flashes specifically for macro work? Or are you guys talking about using a regular flash while doing macro work?
I really prefer natural light :)

you could save some $$ and just get an off-camera cord if you already own a flash. of if you're a Nikon boy, use your wireless settings

I think they are these funky little ring flashes you can attach to your camera. I know that's how they work for underwater macrophotography...
Ah, Found one

I'm a Nikon girl :)
So it's not a special flash, but a normal flash (I have the SB600, works great as a remote wireless).
I thought you guys were talking about some other contraption.
Sorry, too slow. I was answering DreamStalker

I believe he was refering to a ringlight flash such as this:
Ringlight macro flash |

Ah, OK, yes, I've heard of those ring flashes. Somewhere I saw a bunch of butterfly shots made with the aid of a ring flash - they were just beautiful.
Has anyone here tried these ring flashes?

It's a bit different than that Tim. If you use a normal flash gun hand-held, you're going to get serious shadows. Even with reflectors all over the place, the camera lens is so close to the subject that you can't get light onto it.
The ring-flash is the best way but they're expensive. Even a light tent doesn't work that well as again the lens just gets in the way and casts shadows
