ive been looking through the forums and got myself a little muddled. (not hard to do!) Ive recently bought a canon 500d and a 100mm usm macro lens as i want to take pictures of my stick insects and other bugs. Im looking into lighting and have decided to purchase a cheap light tent for working...

Ive just picked up a second hand canon 100mm usm macro and im well happy with it. I bought it intending to should insects that i keep and breed and like the idea that i dont have to get right on top of the animal. so far ive not needed a tripod. You can always pick up some x1/x3/x5/x10 58mm...

No thoughts at all?

Just wondering if anyonme has see/used one of these double flash unit? Macro Flash Kit for Canon 40D 50D 5D II 450D 1000D 500D Item number: 260476201807 (ebay) http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260476201807&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT any comments please.

thank you all!

For all I know it could have been an old lead or may be some other reason it became faulty. I'm just not keen on leaving my cable on 16 hours a day due to heat - the chargers get way too hot. It's a good idea to use a docking station though. Seem most are saying just run it. My work...

might not damage the battery but it can do damage to the charger. Chargers are 30 to 60 pounds! They get very hot! I try to charge over night then use without the charger till battery light comes on. Then use with charger till batterys charged and then turn it off again this way it gives charger...

Id love the twin unit but a little pricey for me even a second hand is a bit over budget at the moment. I think ill be looking at a 430 with diffuser for now and play around with placement and if im shoot indoors using a mini studio (tent) with two 50 watt lights i should have enough...

great lens ...great price!

thanks for the welcone Dave.
