Show Your Snaps...December 10, 2012

Thanks! It takes a bit of editing to get them looking that good. 

It's a very old idea, I can't take any credit for it.

The flash gives you an extremely short effective shutter duration (like 1/10,000 sec?), so you never get any camera motion blur. It also gives very consistent and predictable lighting. This setup requires very little mucking around with FEC down to 1:1. In my experience once you get past 1:1 things get weird and you need to use manual flash, but I haven't gone there yet with this setup. The 100L performs beautifully in AI Servo, and has transformed the way I do macro.
