[QUOTE="aroy, post: 359562, member: 16090"] I think that ring flash has had its day, except for situations when you want a compact solution. For macro the flash shown a few post ago is the way to go. [url=http://www.nikonusa.com/en/Nikon-Products/Product/Flashes/R1C1-Wireless-Close-Up-Speedlight-System.html]R1C1 Wireless Close-Up Speedlight System from Nikon[/url] This is available in two kits - with and without the wireless commander. The system can accommodate upto 8 sb-R200 speedlights, four on the lense ring and others free roaming. For macro this may be a better solution, as unlike the ring, you can rotate and shift the SB-R 200 units to give optimal light (normally left, right and the top) so that you have minimal (if at all shadows). For portraits you can position two units one on each side of the subject (slightly behind if required) and one unit directed or bounced.
