hey all,

i ve been considering getting a ring flash for portraits and what not or just to use as a flash (i have a sb 600 already).

^i wanted to know what you flash gurus think of that and if you have suggestions of using it or if there is a better one for the better bang for the buck!

thanks a lot in advance!

thats for macro. ive seen people use it on people, but its not powerful enough to get shoot during daylight. you need to look at Alien Bee AB800R thats what everyone here is using. That or a Profoto one.

awesome, thanks for the quick reply!

kinda a noob question; for the ring flash, is there a special way to use it? or do i use it similar to my sb600?
