Hi there,

I was wondering if anyone know of an online tutorial or even some tips basic setups that will help me get started with this flash (that I have had for 12months and used twice) but I would like to learn it and feel that although flash never seems to work for me I think it can give another dimension to some of my insect shot and macro work in general.

Regards Darren

P.S. I use the MT24-EX with the Canon 100mm f/2.8 macro lens and the 350D


Canon 350d & other Canon things...

What aspects are you having problems with?

I know it's a massive learning curve but the best thing to do id use the MT and get used to it. I used a static subject and worked out the differing effects on light etc of moving the heads and angling them etc. I haven't even got around to looking at ratios yet.
