Thanks Daniel, do you have any macro shots posted that you took with the
inflatable ring?

Just in case anyone was wondering, there's some shots of this on the camera
at:

As for performance, it's actually pretty impressive, but very definitely
only useful for macro shots. There's enough light loss that unless you're
very neat to the thing you're shooting, it'll be underexposed; on the other
hand, it 'moves the light forwards' enough that when you _do_ get that
close, it'll expose things better than just a T32, because the T32's light
is shaded by the lens.
It certainly illuminates things much more evenly than a single flash does;
sadly, this just means that the shots I took look very flat, which is, I
suppose, correct, if not entirely what I was after..
