Macro Photography Tip

[XinWongDigital]

you don't have to use a tripod when you use a flash. the flash helps to bring more dynamic into your shot and also, importantly, helps to freeze the moment and allows you to use faster shutter speed.

use a tripod with only one leg extended (eg. a monopod) for things that move, you can still move around but have good stability

@DavidHeatonPhoto yep good idea

Blah, I don't use a tripod at all and shoot bugs all the time. A tripod is almost impossible for bugs, they move too fast.

@wallmartkiller good point

[mjoraid]

@wallmartkiller hahaha i can't see my self moving the tripod and chasing the bug all over the place

also shoot at highest or smallest ie biggest number f-stop

if you use a ring flash, you then have the speed and the light, and almost all your pictures are gonna be yousfull
