Cameta Digital & Film SLR Macro Lighting Kit: Ring Light Flash + NiMH Rapid Charger + Rechargeable Batteries - for Canon EOS Rebel XT, XTi, XS, XSi, T1i, 50D, 40D, 5D SLR Digital Cameras

Kit includes: 1) Cameta Cobra Macroflash; 2) NiMH Rapid Charger with 4 High Capacity 2700mAh Rechargeable AA Batteries. The Cameta Cobra Macroflash Automatic Ring Light is a convenient and creative lighting solution for medical, dental, flower, insect, jewelry, coin, and other small subject close-up photography where built-in and conventional flashes are impossible to use. The circular flash tube design encompasses your lens to provide shadow-free, even illumination on your subject. An added benefit of employing electronic flash technology rather than a continuous light source is that it will freeze action, so that a lively butterfly or flower waving in the breeze can be photographed as if they were posing for your camera. Unlike other ring lights that require a bulky and heavy power supply, the Macroflash is self-contained and powered by only two AA-size Alkaline, NiCad or NiMH rechargeable batteries. A PC cord and Hotshoe-to-PC adapter are supplied, enabling the Macroflash to be used with almost any Canon Digital or Film SLR Camera with a hotshoe or standard PC socket. This versatile Ring Light Flash can mount to almost any Canon Digital or Film SLR lens using the supplied 52mm, 55mm, and 58mm adapter rings or if necessary, with other optionally available adapter rings. Optimized to prevent vignetting with most lenses having a filter size of 58mm or smaller, these optional Series 7 adapter rings are available separately in sizes from 43mm through 77mm. The rechargeable memory-free NiMH batteries included in this kit will provide faster flash recycling time than regular alkaline batteries and because they can be charged hundreds and hundreds of times, they will save you money over using disposable batteries.
Customer Review: Not bad at all.
For the money I spent on this item it is not bad. The only complaint I have is that it will not work on auto with my Canon PowerShot Pro1 camera. This means that the flash unit fires at it's full power with every shot. The unit has a powerful flash so the guide number is beyond my cameras f-stop range for macro shots. But I have found that I can compensate for this by using ND filters. Overall, I would say that this is a VERY good buy, and well worth the money!
