Blinding performance

Advantages: Very powerful and flexible advanced users flash gun, easy full-auto use.
Disadvantages: Expensive, complicated parameters setting, can cause subjects to blink.

...the build quality of the Canon guns are very good, plastic but much better than the sometimes cheap mouldings of the others. The 580EX II improves on this further by including a metal hot shoe foot and weather sealing for use in the rain (when used with a suitably weather-proofed body). Conclusion ---------------- Great performance at a premium price - good if you've got deep pockets and want to use the built-in wireless slave features with other ...

Review of Canon Speedlite 580EX Hot-shoe clip-on flash

The closest thing to a studio flash!

Advantages: Excellent range, ease of use, full integration with EOS digital cameras
Disadvantages: Battery compartment hard to open and close.

...can get these from the Canon website, but if your camera supports it, the best one is the E-TTL II metering system, which uses distance info from your lenses. The result is an extremely accurate exposure, be it with mixed light (ambient and flash) or just flash. The ability to light up the LCD is one I didn't really pay any attention until I had to cover a Halloween party... It was pitch black and I wanted to change the flash exposure compensation ...
...are very easy to use and change. I had grasped most of them in 10 minutes of reading the manual and trying them out on the unit. Anything from flash exposure compensation to stroboscopic flash can be set via the very useful dial on the back of the unit. Also custom functions can be selected, as you do on any EOS cameras. You can select second curtain sync, manual mode, etc.... CONCLUSION For anyone with an EOS digital camera, this is the best flash ...

Review of Canon Speedlite 580EX Hot-shoe clip-on flash

Lightning strikes

Advantages: Fast recharge time, handy in use, plenty of light.
Disadvantages: Price, battery insert.

The Canon speedlite 580ex is the best flash unit i have worked with until this date. I photograph a lot of weddings, children and birthdays, so it's important that i relay on a good flash. You can turn the flashhead 360 degrees sideways, 90 degrees up and a few degrees down (mostly for macro photo). The guidenumber on 105 mm. is 58 and on 50 mm. it's 42, so compared to the older 550ex it is a good improvement and gives you lot's of light. The 580ex ...
...angel lenses such as the canon 17-40mm usm. the 580ex completely shares all information with the camerabody you use and will set the flashlight after it. the recharge time is 6 seconds on normal and 3 seconds on quickmode, but you cannot allways count on that becuase if the flash decides that the flashlight needs to be lower then normal, it will simply save the rest of the energy. The first "outta the box" expiriense was that i coult not open the ...
