Amazon.com Product Description
Canon's Macro Ring Lite MR-14EX for close-up and macro shooting comes equipped with many features and capabilities. Utilizing E-TTL (enhanced through- the-lens mode) technology, it takes full advantage of the flash performance of the Canon EOS-1V, EOS-3, and other E-TTL cameras, and also supports E-TTL wireless auto flash, when used with at least one Canon 550EX Speedlite flash. The circular twin flash tubes of the MR-14EX can fire at even power, or vary between themselves over a six-stop range. The controller unit has an illuminated LCD panel, and the MR14-EX also accepts optional high-capacity battery packs.

The MR-14EX attaches directly to Canon's EF 50mm f/2.5 compact macro, EF 100mm f/2.8 macro (both versions), and MP-E 65mm macrophoto lenses, and can also be used with EF 180mm f/3.5L macro USM via the Macrolite adapter 72C.

Great For Dental Photography
I take pictures for an orthodontists, and this has drastically improved the lighting on my photos. Its great for close up pictures. I use this in conjunction with a Cannon Rebel XT and a 60mm lens.

Canon MR-14EX
Excellent ring light. Easy to use. You get good shading effects with the variable bulb output.

is a MUST HAVE
Im a dentist and i need to take around 20 intraoral pictures each day. I used to have a point and shoot camera, it was worthless. I decided to take the SLR big step, and i bought a Canon rebel Xt, a 2.8 100mm usm Macro, and this ring flash, I LOOOOOOOve my ring flash. You dont want to have the camera and the macro without it, taking pictures now its fun and fast. The set up its kind of heavy, and you need an assitant to hold the mirrors and the retractors (dentist stuff sorry about that) and thats why i think its better than the TWIN FLASH also by canon because the twin itsheavier and bulkier. For those like me who have a point and shoot camera, and think that upgrading to an SLR wit macro and ring flash would be hard because of all the options , BELIEVE ME its WAY EASIER with my current set up. The ring flash works perfect i would recomend it even better than the twin flash version (and its cheaper). I hope this helps to all the slr newbiees like me.
