That fly shot may be deceptive. I can't recall, but it may have been taken with extension tubes, so higher magnification than 1:1. Maybe 2:1 or 3:1? So don't expect a fly that big in the screen at 1:1.

I think you'll find that the built-in flash will have trouble getting down to your subject over the front of your lens. I have seen guys using all sorts of DIY solutions to use the built-in flash for macro. Will try to find a link for you for some ideas.
