Show Notes: January 05, 2009
In the podcast Martin takes us through some thoughts about using a standard zoom as a macro as well as creating a black background in daylight flash images and using a ringlight for illuminating small things. Examples of the type of online instructional articles described can be found on The Global FlyFisher.

  2. Tripod

  5. Assessing results
  6. Bye
