My lens is a tamron 90 mm f2.8 macro I've learnt very quickly "you focus and move a fraction of an inch and your out of focus).hence why I,m in awe of these guy,s their amazing.

Ok think I've released RING FLASH or pop up flash diffused but focusing is a pain in the a**e.

My O-Flash is a US$30 attachment on a standard speedlight. I set my camera to ISO 400, which gives me decent background exposure in full sunlight, and darkened background in overcast lighting. My speedlight is usually 1/2 power at f/16 or full power at f/22 for proper exposure of subject. I can adjust from there.
I do not change my shutter duration of 1/200-sec, as this helps stabilize my background movement. The short speedlight flash duration freezes my subject movement.
With auto-aperture, I can compose & focus wide-open, then the lens closes down to f/22 for exposure.
