Last week i add some modification to my camera for the flash problem that i was having on macro and with wide angle on.
Had been wanting to do it, but, doesnt seems to have the time and also the required material for me to mod.

Before i do the add on mod, first, i attach some velcro to my camera body. Just use those foam type of double side tape. I got mine from the pasar malam, just for RM 2.

1) The Camera Mod

here's a list of the problem that i faces,

Problem 1) When i am doing a close up shots on an object(macro), i see dark shadow. So this is what i did to fix it with some add on.
I used clear film canister, some velcro, scissor, needle and string. And this is what i got.
2) Macro Mod (view 1)

Problem 2) When i am using 3rd party wide angle lense screwed on to my camera, i get a very big dark shadow due to the blocking wide angle lense that i screw on.
I use "clear styrofoam" - got it inside the box of the lcd(protecting the layer), some velcro, scissor, needle and string.
4) The Camera Mod : Wideangle

As you can see, for problem 1(refer 6), It's being dealt with. However, some fine tuning, angle adjustment of the film canister itself and also the camera are also important for the lighting effects.

7) Macro Example (WITH Mod)

Same goes for the wide angle problem 2. But its still under testing, as I rarely use it in these few days. But it fixed my problem and without the extra cost if i am to get a slave flash, which i initially planned to get one. Woot!

I use the macro one during the event at Sg Wang recently, BAKUC 2007
The problem I faced now is with those reflecting glasses that covers the gundam models. Some times i add on with my cpl filter with the macro mod, and adjust the angle of my camera just to get the nice picture.
