Cracking set!

I was in Wales last week. Also spent a day on the Orme eating the best sausage and chips I have ever had!

This is my unused macro flash. I know use my modern flash guns with a specialist diffuser for macro.

It also comes with a 52, 55, and 58mm to 49mm adaptors to fit various macro lenses.

This flash has to be used in full manual or in flash sync mode on modern Pentax DSLR's.

Note - On my K3 I put something under the main body of the flash. With the batteries in it is quite heavy, and all the weight is forward. As it can prevent the gun making contact on the hotshoe.

£75 inc delivery.

It would be helpful if you could post an example of an image?

Meanwhile, IR light will focus at a different distance to visible light and not many lenses are corrected for this. Some lense have an IR correction mark on the lens so this can be accounted for. Focus normally and then move the point of focus slightly closer and see if that helps.
I'll stick something up shortly..... need to fugure out how to get it of the camera n on to the tinterweb
