8: Sufficient lighting is essential

With sunlight alone, the brightness required for macro shooting may not be sufficient. You may think that it is better to use a flash, but if the subject is an organism such as an insect, there is a risk of being scared and being able to escape. It is essential to set up lighting for the subject. Let's consider 'ring illumination' attached around the lens and 'reflector' that uses sunlight. You should be able to take more attractive photos than before.
