re: I am aware these were designed
You may be right, but what matters today, is the flash compatible with modern I-TTL cameras ?
I think not. As mentioned above, you may want to choose
-a later Nikon sort-of ring flash, the SB-29 (not certain if it will do i-ttl)
-a third party ring-flash
-some self-made modifier (to try if you like such systems, available at much larger cose)
-a true-modern I-TTL Nikon macro flash like the expensive R1C1 system
-more recent: some third-party LED ring-lights.
All this hassle must not let you divert from buying any 55 or 60mm Nikon macro lens, most are fine, but be aware that the older 55 2.8 Ai-s versions are non-cpu.
Regards, Gilbert
