For use with the Nikon R1 and R1C1 macro flashes, Canon 270EX II flashes and Canon MT-24EX Twin Light Macro Flash |
| Nikon's R1 wireless macro flash has been a popular item since it was introduced. The only issue with the R1 has to do with the mounting ring - it is quite large and places the flash heads too far from the lens for buccal and occlusal mirror shots and posterior views.
Canon's MT-24EX Dual Point Flash is limited by the mounting that Canon includes in the package - it positions the flash heads very close to the lens without an option to move them away. The R2 Dual Point Flash Bracket solves both of the issues by allowing you to position the flash heads on either side of the lens for intraoral views or separate them by as much as 22 inches for anterior esthetic views and lab communication. (Nikon shown with R2 bracket in top photo - Canon with R2 bracket in bottom photo) NEW 7/2011: The Canon 270EX II flash is a compact flash that can be controlled wirelessly by a Canon flash transmitter. The Canon Rebel T3i and 7D can control wireless flashes without additional equipment. The 60D also has a built-in transmitter, but there is an issue (read more here). All other Canon models need the Canon Speedlite Transmitter ST-E2. The 270EX II with the R2 Bracket is the first compact, wireless dual point flash system for Canon cameras.
