Hi Everyone:

I am just wondering which flash you would recommend for a Sony a7R III for doing macro work, basically mostly shooting insects such as bees and wasps, but also some flowers with the 90mm f2.8? I would imagine that it would need half decent recycle time, but I am not sure what other qualities are important for macro shots.

Hello Charles!

I use Sony's HVL-F20M with FE 2.8/50 Macro, both on camera, and with off-camera cord.

The flash folds down to turn off. Very compact

This is really great, Richard! I will look into that specific flash! Can I contact you privately if I have any further questions? Thanks again,

-Charles

Sure.
