ReviewsSubmited By: on 07/03/2004This flash unit is by far one of the best Speedlite MR-14EX Macro Ring Lite accessories I've purchased...macro shots are much easier with this flash and I don't have to worry so much about blurry pictures. The bulbs can be set to fire at different ratios and it's possible to turn one side off completely, allowing for nice shadows that give your images more depth. The ring itself can rotate, so the flash can highlight any side of the subject. It has two small focusing lamps that illuminate your subject while you focus, which makes it a lot easier to see what you're doing. It even comes with a nice padded carrying case. This flash gets a lot of use and it's now a major asset to the rest of my gear...it's definitely worth the money. Submited By: Bond... James Bond on 06/07/2007Canon packages their macro ring lites with an EOS Speedlite MR-14EX Macro Ring Lite and macro lens for use by dentists for good reason: for close-up macro photography inside someone's mouth where you want to be able to either avoid or control shadowing effects, this is an indispensable flash that provides better close-up illumination than you can get with just a hot shoe flash. I am using this on an EOS 30D with their excellent Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM Lens for Canon SLR Cameras and a Canon Macrolite Adapter 58C for Canon G2, G3, G5, G6 & Pro1 Digital Cameras
Even though the "Canon Macrolite Adapter 58C" says that it is for G2-G6 Speedlite MR-14EX Macro Ring Lites, it fits their 100mm Macro Lens also. The flash secures onto grooves in their 100mm Macro Lens, but if you prefer to leave a UV-haze filter on that lens, the filter covers up the groove. Therefore, to not have to remove the protective UV-haze filter lens in order to attach the ring lite, you need to screw the "Canon Macrolite Adapter 58C" onto the lens, which then provides the grooves that the ring lite then attaches to.
I use this ring lite for both indoor and outdoor nature macro photography and it is the perfect flash when the natural lighting is less than optimal.
