My Canon T1i is taking great photos of the family, scenery, etc. but the close up photos of parts aren't turning out as well as I'd hoped. The reason is obvious. Even with multiple lamps I don't have enough lighting. I'm going to build a light box per this blog: http://strobist.blogspot.com/2006/07/how-to-diy-10-macro-photo-studio.html My question is: he is using a flash for lighting - do all flashes have a feature where you can turn them to "on" for a few seconds to illuminate your subject? Or will I need a remote cord? Ideally I'd get two flashes so that I can have even lighting.
