<< Can you recommend me some flash setup for macrophotography? (Ring,
 twin, or arrangement with regular flashes)? I work in field and with
 dry mounted insects, too.
  Which flashes of other marks can work (TTL) with OM 4 without adapter
 and for which does adapter exist?
 And remember by reccomendations please, that $$ are for me probably
 more hard to find as for somebody from EU or USA, but I am not that
 rich that I can buy something cheap that will not work. >>

If $$ are a consideration for doing macro flash, I would recommend two cheap 
and small manual flashes, a "Y" connector and a Bogen dual macro flash 
bracket.  Automatic flash sometimes doesn't work well if you are doing 
outdoor work because the flash will try to read the background and overexpose 
your subject.
