I am using the MT24 quite a bit. The ring mount on the lens is OK, but frequently I want the flash heads in some other position: closer to lens axis of MP-E 65, or further way than what the MT24 ring allows. I have a couple of Wimberley plamps, where I replaced the tongue with a small flash shoe. Works fine on tripod, as I can put the clamp on the tripod leg and position the flash heads where I want them. However, when hand-holding, it is awkward at best to find an attachment point for the clamp end.
RRS makes some macro rigs, but they are rather pricey, very large, and not as quick to adjust as the plamps.
How do you do it? I don't quite know what I am looking for, but maybe something like a plamp arm that attaches to an Arca-style L-bracket? Just looking for inspiration and pointers. Thanks!
