Greetings fellow Pentaxians, I am a new *istDS user from Seattle, Washington USA. New to Pentax, but have dabbled in photography over the last decade or so. I've really been interested in digital the last few years using mostly Cano,...(do I dare mention on this forum?). The *ist DS is my firs DSLR. I am sure glad I went with the Pentax. Macro subjects have always interested me so I'm looking at purchasing a better lens than my Sigma DL's to shoot stuff like insects, flowers at close range. Also looking at a ring flash unit.
My question is regarding the AF080C ring flash. Is a used one in excellent condition worth $150 US? Those of you who have used it are you pleased with it and is it invaluable for macros of flowers and insects? I look forward to contributing what little knowledge I have with the other great people here. Thanks, Jay Taylor *istDS
