i got a Canon T2i and i just got a 50mm 1.8 for starters. i also just won a Canon macrolite 3 and i was wondering if i'll need an adapter or anything? if $47 bucks a good deal for a ML-3?

mine is just like this.

looks similar to my MR-14EX, if it works as well then it is a bargain. Should just clip over the end of the 50mm lens.

not much information on it, but we'll see when it gets here. i also got a 430 ex (old kind) for $67 bucks :D i guess its not too bad i just didn't want one of those basic 200series canon flash. i plan on getting a 580ex II soon :D and learning how to use the speedlites and the slave functions im still a noob :(

Google is your friend....

Tons of info about the ML-3 here: http://www.mir.com.my …ared/Macrolites​/index.htm (external link)

There's a link to download the manual for it, too (probably also available on the Canon website, but I haven't checked).

Whoops! Looks like that link to the manual is not working. It's not on the Canon USA site either.

Try http://butkus.org …n_flashes/canon​_flash.htm (external link) to get a copy of the manual.
