If I get one of these, how much use can I get out of it without buying extra gear? Like special flashes for macros. I'm assuming the bugs above were not simply sunlit. I'd love to start playing around with some closeup shots.

Sorry for the late reply but actually everything I shoot is naturally lit. I use the 100L extensively handheld in natural lighting.. its very good IS is a big reason I love it actually

I do not currently even own a flash

What magnifications typically? The magnification makes a big difference to lighting requirements.
