Gets The Job Done
This macro ring flash unit wasn't purchased for macro photography or for use on a macro lens. It was bought to attach to a Canon 18-135 STM lens for use in photographing products for our design business. We wanted to achieve flat lighting, and this macro flash unit does just that. The macro flash unit was easy to set up after reading the instruction manual. It is useful that the two flash tubes can be either used at the same flash output (A:B, 1:1) or by using the ratio button and the left or right arrows, A can be increased and B decreased or vice versa. The unit can be set to E-TTL mode whereby the unit automatically emits a brief pre-flash measurement. This is done to assess the duration of the flash based on the aperture, shutter speed, ISO and flash to subject distance, to ensure even illumination. Alternatively, the unit can be set to manual mode. In this mode, the flash output can be adjusted from 1:1 (full) to 1/64 power in full stop increments for greater light control. In manual mode—although you will have greater control of the light output, the macro flash unit/camera combination will not help you. You will have to determine the correct flash exposure yourself, either by using a light meter, or by doing test shots. What are the downsides? This macro ring flash is designed for use on Canon’s macro lens: EF 50mm f/2.5, EF 100mm f2/8 USM macro lens, EF 100mm f/2.8 macro lens, and MP-E 65mm f/2.5 1-5x. The unit is attached to a grove in the front of these lenses. In my case, using a Canon 18-135mm STM lens—there is no groove, therefore you have to buy an adapter which screws into the filter thread. This adapter contains the groove to attach the macro flash unit to. This adapter is quite expensive, but well made. When the macro ring flash is attached to the lens, a lens hood cannot be used. One further downside—if it can be called that—the macro ring flash unit can move freely in the groove on the lens or adapter—it cannot be set and locked at a predetermined position. Overall this is a really great macro ring flash. It is well built, reliable, has a multitude of settings and gets the job done. I highly recommend it.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

MR14EX fix
I've owned 5 of these flash units and use them for close-up photography and training. My oldest (15 years old) unit is still working. For some reason one of my newer units had a flash bulb that burned out -- only half of the ring flash worked. Not an easy fix either-- I started by taking apart and found the internals are as tightly wound as a watch. Fortunately I found a broken flash for sale at a good price. Took a few parts from my broken flash and fixed the eBay purchased broken flash -- half to a quarter of the cost of a factory repair and I am back in business.Verified purchase: Yes

Definitely a "specialist" accessory
This is not something you would slap on your digital Rebel for shooting the family outing or a birthday party (actually, it would work, but there are so many better alternatives). It is a trifle cumbersome to mount with TWO mounting points and a connecting cord but that is the nature of the beast. It is a bit odd clipping your flash unit to your lens and the adapters can slip if not screwed in firmly (but not TOO firmly - no torque wrench required here). It is not lightweight but most would use a tripod or some other form of stabilization rather than attempt a hand-held shot with this beast. I find it a well built and reliable unit and like any specialist accessory, there is a learning curve. If you use Canon equipment and wish to venture into macro photography, this is a nice bit of gear but it ain't cheap. I do have a complaint. Why are the wretched lens adapters so expensive? A bit of light alloy with a threaded section SHOULD cost peanuts!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Canon MR-14EX ring flash
I am happy with this flash as I saw it at first on the TV show, CSI Miami. I also was lucky to have the Macro 100mm 2.8 lens that the flash was made to be used with. I have been practicing with the flash, and have no problems getting the photos to come out the way I need them to. It is a great made flash.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Excellent flash with caveats
I have owned three of these Canon ringflashes. There are two things I do not like about them. The first is that they are very expensive. There are knock offs that will do a decent job of less than a quarter of the price. The second is that they are big and bulky, which is an issue out in the field in rough terrain.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
