I'm a heathen, all photography and video is shot on an iPod Touch. If I need an ultra close up, a hand held magnifier or my glasses over the lens :thumbup:
My telephoto is a cheap spotting scope.
Arbalist:
A large piece of card or a cloth is useful to put behind whatever you're taking a picture of to hide the background.
howsitwork?:
A plain coloured dark towel works really well as it absorbs stray light and lets your eye dwell on the subject matter.
Decent flash gun helps as well with a diffuser.
Have fun.
SwarfnStuff:
I agree Howsitwork,
Plus, if you don't have or cannot find your flash diffuser I have found placing a facial tissue (Kleenex) over the flash works wonders and gets rid of hot spots / glare in the photo. Specially if you have to work up real close it also cuts down the flash strength.

Thanks for all the suggestions. John, that's an interesting one!
Has anyone used those little photo pop up tents on eBay, £20 for a 50x50cm or there shouts. I'm just thinking its a white background and should help with light.
