Setup shot. In case you're wondering, my 'photo studio' right is just the top of a gloss white set of draws against a white wall. I was surprised how well it worked especially as the gloss finish can give me a little floor reflection sometimes which looks nice.
Microscope lens setup. Effectively extension tubes and a extension tube to RMS cone adapter giving approx 160mm from focal plane to objective. A USB mini LED lamp fed from a rechargeable battery block (that goes in my pocket). The disc near then of the cone is actually a twin flash mount.
Parts. Sony A6000, Sony to EOS lens adapter, EOS to M42 adapter, M42 extension tubes, M42 to RMS cone, 4X 160mm microscope lens.
I already had these but obviously the adapters depend on the camera body in use but you need to get to M42 for the RMS adapter. The most common RMS adapter is a flat disc, if you use this you will need to use more M42 extension tubes.
setup for previous pic.
May have return my new Elinchrom D Lite 2 on the right, can't keep up with RX600 strobe. Added Quadra in foreground b/c her false eyelashes were so big and blocking light from above!
Here you see the fabric exposed for the photo shoot. When I am done with this setup I just roll the paper down.
I am 5.11, so no problem for me:)
<< *** EDIT Please note that I've since updated my rig and this post is now somewhat outdated. The new setup can be found here! *** EDIT >>
-------------------------
This rig gives 1:1 reproduction ratio in a relatively compact, easy to handle package.
I find it very convenient to attach the flash bracket in the PN-11 tripod mount since that lets me add more extension tubes between the camera without increasing the distance between the subject and the flash. Also, the PN-11 tripod mount rotates which enables me to easily align the flash the way I want it.
Here are some shots taken with this setup.
These were all made with an additional 50mm extension added between the camera and the PN-11:

Update:
Now updated with a 430EX II Flash & Vivitar 283 flash behind the droplet site.
My current setup. I'm pretty happy with how its coming along. Still have a couple things to add, though.
- 27" Apple Cinema Display
- 6-core Mac Pro
- iPhone 4 on the Glif stand
- iPad on the Compass stand from Twelvesouth
- 23" LG Display mounted on an ergotron arm
- Blue Snowball Mic
- Desk from Pottery Barn
- Silver Surfer poster is a custom print from a scan of the comic
- Sword from a local pawn shop
- I'm using the Backpack shelf from Twelvesouth to hold a small lamp on the back of the display to create the ambient light

For those of you asking about my frozen bubble setup, this is a video I compiled from my last photo session. The video is a bit jumpy because I took it from my phone on a selfie stick, sorry. It's interesting to see how fast the ice features form and the short life span of a frozen bubble.
In response to a request, here is an iPhone photo. of my setup for photographing slides. There are possibilities on the market for holding films in position, which I may explore later for work with negatives, but for slides it works just fine without such.
The tripod and camera are set up with careful attention to the parallelism of image plane and pad - a spirit level is indispensible. Once set, the tripod is rock-steady over weeks.
A 12mm extension tube on my 100mm macro lens brings it all together; I use aperture priority with f/8 - this provides enough depth of field for any buckling of the slide. I push the pad around on the desk until the slide is in position - quick and easy with the tethered capture image as a guide on my computer monitor. The autofocus and auto exposure work well.
The whole setup is covered by a black bin-bag to minimise light from the environment on the slide, and to keep it all clean. I can push the pad around with the bag covering it like a tent to within a few millimetres of the desk. The camera in the 'tent' is controlled from the computer, of course, and I work in near darkroom conditions apart from the light from the monitor and from the pad. 'Canned air' is always handy!
this is my latest setup, it's not the best but it does ok. I may make some changes like a bigger dropper, just started using the smaller one a few weeks back. thanks for looking. sorry about the quality of the photo, but this actually was taken with my iPhone.
Thermal blankets = cheap fun! :-)

This is a setup shot from a photoshoot with Sarah, a very talented and beautifull model.
After about one hour in my small home studio, Sarah, assistant Ake and I went out for some location shooting on an abandoned highway. We found a nice natural light pattern under a bridge. We first tried with just the available light but there was allways a part of Sarah's face in the shadow. So I brought in an SB24 (1/4 to 1/8 I think) with a translucent umbrella on a Nano stand. The available light comming from above still created an unwanted pattern on Sarah, so Ake blocked that light with a reflector. By underexposing the background, the pattern got some more contrast.
Triggered with PW's.

During a shoot I love creating a visual record of my setups & sharing them with you guys on my site. A couple of people have told me recently that they actually use my site as a reference for setting up shots while they are out on location. That's pretty humbling/awesome, thanks!

Assistant with bubbles machine behind her
So, talking about this shot, I’m using a one light setup for it. My main light was a Canon 580EXII flash used with a 80×60 softbox, set left high from the model. We have been wondering what to do with the bubbles, and figured out that the easiest way to get a good stream of them was to get a machine for bubbles. So the question when we started shooting was…where to put it! And actually on the photo behind the model there is an assistant who is doing great job, and staying invisible!

Setup shot for this image of Sylwia.
Lighting was a pair of Profoto Acute2 heads in a clamshell setup with a 5' octabox on top and a 24x32" softbox on the bottom. Check the notes for more details!
Christmas was good for Swet. I wanted to do a quick shot to showcase the photog booty. Since the CyberSyncs are made by the same people as Alien Bees, I wanted to give it a little creepy alien feel. So I went with an abstract green background.
Strobist: One SB-600 bounced into white foamcore at 1/16 to left of CyberSyncs. A white v-card to right of subject for fill. Another SB-600 camera left, gelled green and shot through a plastic laundry basket at 1/4 for background. CyberSyncs are sitting on a piece of acrylic on top of a piece of black foamcore.
