Hello Marten,
I've been away for a couple days. From the list I see more replies from
this
thread which I haven't read yet, so this may already have been discussed.
But it is just natural lighting, either overcast, or I try to shade the
bugs
with my body. I can shade a wide area :-)
I made a styrofoam ring flash for the C5050 a number of months ago. Your
post has reminded me that I've never actually tried it yet for bugs,
flowers, etc.
I don't particularly like insects. But when I get bored...... I can
see
more detail in them on the screen than with my old eyes in the field, so
enjoy I seeing just how intricate they are.
Wayne
