Thanks guys, I don't want to make a major issue of it, it's just seeing the original post got me thinking( I don't post here much but I do peruse it most days, you guys are on a different level to me) I have a minor project in mind which is to get some photos of the local Parakeets at roost, I can get close but not close enough for the built in flash so I want to give it a boost without spending a lot of money because I can't envisage needing it for anything else.
I might try the magnifier trick if I can get hold of one but I would imagine that most of the flash energy would bounce off rather than get focused into a beam, worth a try though 'cause you never know when you might get lucky.
