¿Does anyone use LED lighting for studio macro?
A nice fan-cooled pro studio flash pack is £6,000, and you cannot get fiber-optic adapters any more, so why not LED?
Ring-lights can be useful as fill, but I want a single LED bulb with an integral lens on a flexible stalk, e.g. as a spectral light for a diamond, or to light a small part of a subject 1cm or smaller.I've decided to start looking for lighting now to go along with the 120 and one of the ones I'm looking at is a LED ring light.
A wonderful person your Grandmother is! I A lovely portrait that will be cherished for generations.A little different than what usually posted here, this is a portrait of my grandma, 85 y.o. and kicking b.tt! Here she is at her writing table (she wrote all her life for herself, but started having her work published in the last five years, and is now keeping at it intensively! I wish I'll have a tenth of her energy if and when I'll hit 85):
Taken with a Hassy 501 CM, 80mm, Leaf Aptus II 12R, 2 Nikon Speedlights to the rescue with Honl modifiers.

Just got back from a workshop my store held in Monument valley, we had native american photographer Mylo Fowler (who mainly shoots 4x5 film) organize and lead it. Weather was iffy, but I got a some nice things.
Big plus one from me, Wayne. I especially love that last two. One rarely sees these sorts of photos from Monument Valley, and while always impressive, the usual type are, well, usual. BTW, the sky in the third shot was worth the trip. wish it was in the second too. :clap::clap::clap:Those are wonderful.
