Default Yongnuo MR-58 Ring Flash

Has anyone used the Yongnuo MR-58 ring flash?

I am looking to get into Macro photography, and plan on buying a Raynox DCR-250 because I dont want to buy a full fledged Macro lens until I have a feel for it. Nor, do I want to purchase an expensive macro flash... so...

I stumbled across the Yongnuo MR-58.

I cant seem to find any reviews on it anywhere. Is it a relatively new item? Has anyone on here had experience with it. Its a great price in my eyes compared to the canon ring flashes.

Any experience shared would be great,

Ben

If you already have a 430ex or similar I would use that off camera, generally more pleasing lighting than ring flash.
