For today only, Adorama has a crazy good deal on macro flashes. I remember the Canon macro flash costing a near arm and a leg, with an option for a kidney. Now, you can get a wireless-capable version for $150 (you need to get a wireless trigger on top of this deal).

Flashpoint R2 MF-12 Macro Flash
The Flashpoint R2 MF-12 Macro Flash is designed to act as a creative lighting tool in the art of macro photography of animals and plants, food, jewelry, as well as dental and medical images. As many as six flash head can install on the MF-AR adapter ring to complete a circle of shadow-free light. The flexible design of the flash encourages discovery in the world of close-up, enhancing the photographer with the Flashpoint R2 wireless radio hands-free convenience.
MF12 is perfect for macro lighting, which enables you to shoot beautiful and sharp photos of small subjects, like plants, animals and insects, in extremely close distance. It’s not only ideal to work individually, but also can serve as a multi-flash solution when several units attach to the mounting ring, forming a ring flash effect or more other flexible light effects as you wish.
The Power behind the Scene
The small flash unit mounted on the stand is exactly what a macro photographer needs. Adjustable head for quick positioning, even extreme close-up range is within its reach. Compact size results in “invisibility”, lighting up the object while hiding itself away easily from the frame.
Multi-flash Setup for Broader Usage
Working as a multiple-flash solution when attaching to the mounting ring, MF12 expands its usage profoundly than the single unit. The combination can handle various scenarios easily depending on the number of flashes and the way you setup.
Starting with a few lights, the combination is bright enough to make up for the ever-changing natural light, while not over-shined to be obtrusive for small animals or insects.
When adding more flashes, it brings a brighter light source to light up larger space while reducing shadows on the subject.
The combination can be used as a strong ring flash, which provides soft and even lighting to make your skin glowing and leaves beautiful catchlight in your eyes.
