[QUOTE="RobV, post: 501543, member: 40570"] Newbie here. When you say flash, you are not referring to the ring light around the lens? I thought that was also considered a flash. (I have not held one in my hands, yet - ring light) Also, I read from unreliable source (Ken...) that 60mm is not useful in macro, because you have to get too close to the subject. With a ring light, that is negated, correct? I didn't really want to hold a large 105mm lens for closeup work. But then, I have not shot my first true macro picture! I have a Nikon 60mm f/2.8 AF Micro coming tomorrow. [/QUOTE]
