Re: Fixed light source vs flash?

For macro I've used both diffused flash and LED units. I now have four 49-LED units which can be used as one array both on or off camera or separately to light the subject from multiple locations. Although I really like the idea of fixed light sources, they don't produce enough light for higher shutter speeds and I still mostly use flash to stop movement.
