My First Experience with E-PL6 and Olympus M.Zuiko 60mm Macro lens

[timz]

Early this month, on a night shore dive, I brought my friend's E-PL3 with kit lens. I have an INON UCL165 and a Subsee +10 with me, but I decided that there's nothing much to shoot in shallow water. Obviously I was wrong... I found a leaf Sheep Nudi. It was the size of a grain of rice... I still tried to shoot but the result was not so satisfying.

So, last Saturday, I drove 350km to the East of Peninsula Malaysia with my E-PL6 and 60mm Macro lens just to try out new system before my trip to Mamutik Island at Borneo. Made 2 boat dives. And did a shore dive next morning just for the Leaf Sheep Nudi.

Finally, I some Cute little Leaf Sheep Nudis...

However, while shooting the Sheep Nudis, I couldn't get my lens close enough due to the difficulty of light position. Any tips on torch positioning..? I am not looking into investment on Strobes yet.
