Canon Twin Lite to Tokina Macro Lens Problem

Re: Canon Twin Lite to Tokina Macro Lens Problem

The flash is designed to clip directly onto Canon macro lenses with a filter thread of not more than 58 mm.

Since you do have a Tokina lens you need:

1. A Canon Speedlite Adapter Ring. They are available in 72, 67 and 58 mm.

2. If your lens has a different filter thread, a step-up ring to fill the gap.

I recommend to buy the 72 mm adapter. As bigger the difference as easier the handling of the step-up ring.
