I have an OM1n, tripod, Olympus bellows inc. double cable release and a Varimagni finder.
What else do I need for table top macro? Will be used when minding my grandkids, currently 8 and 6 yo. We'll go for creating some kind of story book involving pics of their Hot Wheels cars and action hero figures etc.
I'm tempted to get an OM2n for the otf metering and guaranteed(?) correct exposure. Worth having just for macro?
For lighting, I see led ring lights that are only £20 or less brand new. For almost 3 times as much I can get a 30+ year old OM ring flash. Are the cheapo led rings fit for purpose or should I stay with Olympus kit?
