[QUOTE="Ironwood, post: 622006, member: 10447"] I put my Nikon 105 G macro lens on today, this might be the ideal working distance for me I think ( I was ready to sell it too, hasnt been used for a long time) I used just one flash in the softbox, on the LHS of the table. The first 3 have the white card ( 300 X 350mm ) with the black strip in the middle placed on the RHS reflecting back onto the pen, I have used a large sheet of white packing foam ( 600 X 900mm ) to fill in from the top of the card to the back of the table. I moved it around for each photo with varying levels of success.
