My first macro of the year - a photo on Flickriver

            I'm so frustrated with my light in macro. I don't really want to invest on a macro flash.... although I really should, rather I use my external flash and try to make different soft box or flash diffusers, but somehow I it isn't always work as I want it to. The other thing that frustrates me is that my macro lens is fully manual and when I use it on my Nikon D5300 and my flash it gives me a error saying something like " the flash is in ttl use another setting" and when I put my flash on manual it gives me the same error and I can't take pictures with my external flash on 😒. Interestingly it works well on my D300 and D850 ( I don't want to use the D850 for macro ). The only way to use the flash on my D5300 is to manufacture a seperate....flash holder and use it with radio receivers, The idea is that I want to use the D5300 because it has a tilt screen witch is extremely useful, and it has 23 mp compared to 12 mp on my D300..... Butt the D300 has 14 bit uncompressed raw vs the 14bit.....? I don't really know if it is compressed or not on the D5300. Seriously Nikon should had made their entry level dslr compatible with manual lenses ( when I put it on it says I don't have a lens on and it doesn't give me a exposure feedback, that to be honest it doesn't bothers me, I use the histogram or... the lcd screen to check if it is exposed) and made it possible to use external flashes manually even if a lens " isn't " mounted on the body. Somehow I need to resolve the problem fast and cheap. Thanks for the visit and have a nice day.😊
