And the question. I've truly excellent Metz 40MZ-2 flash with SCA 3701 adapter that works really well. I would like to try to get somewhat more serious about my nature macro photography. To that end I am thinking of a macro flash. However I've already have a good flash. Thus, I was thinking - is there such a thing that can be attached to the head of a general flash, say my Metz 40MZ-2, that will transmit the light to the front of the lens, just like the ring macro flash?

Any input on the issue will be greatly appreciated.

I have a "CSI" Polaroid SX-70 kit, officially a "Polaroid CU-70 Macro Kit". It includes three different strength macro lens attachments: 1X, 2X and 3X, all with built in flash directors and meter windows. This system will allow you to focus continuously from 1 foot to 1.5 inches! Also included are the three dedicated brackets and the camera mounting platform, as well as the flash adapter plug for Alpha cameras. All on an aluminum "Halliburton-like" case.
