Hardmuth’s DIY Ring Flash Is Quite A Hack

Canon EOS 40D Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 USM macro Speedlite 430EX flash DYI RingFlash

This light-piped ring flash should do the trick. It’s gotta be cheaper than Canon’s offering (though cheap ring lights can be had for under $100), and it seems to work more than well enough.

  1. There’s also the ExpoImaging Ray Flash

    which works like the hack version in a slightly cleaner package.

  2. I wasn’t able to find instructions for making this ring flash on Hardmuth’s site. Got a pointer to how I can do this for myself?
