Canon Speedlite 430EX II Flash for Canon Digital SLR Cameras

This is a great flash for use with Canon SLR's. The quality of my pictures from my Digital SLR is much better than using the built in flash. AF assist makes focusing quicker. Recharge rate for the flash is very quick. Just wish I bought it sooner.

I shot engagement pictures 2 days after receiving this flash with no experience using any flash but the one on the camera. I was amazed at the increased quality of my photos. I am sold out to this product.

This is a nice flash. It is a back up, and key flash for my 580EXii flash and does what it is supposed to do.

Reflecting off the ceiling works best! Will over expose a liitle if your too close to object.

Didn't know how fast I'd 'flash' thru a set of batteries.
I was shooting casuals during a wedding rehearsal & dinner... I got about 35 shots per set of 4 batteries.
I cannot fault the Canon 430EX II Flash, it was my lack of experience with external battery packs, which I should have gotten.
Flash is really good. I'll love having it. I'll just need to find a more efficient way to power my rig.
