I like my Canon 60mm lens and for most photos I am happy using the pop up flash. Although it could be better it is a good compromise with ease of use.
Please bear in mind that all my photos are aimed to make me good at taking photos when I am in the cloud forest when I go to Colombia on holiday and so techniques must not be too difficult to use in the field and carry in a backpack.

(I am a big fan of https://www.flickr.com/photos/itchydogimages and I like the black backrounds that I often get, like he does, I know some people hate this and I like their photos too which is strange.)
However for beetles I don't like the effect. Any ideas?
