Editorial Reviews:

Further development of Canon's flagship Speedlite has led to the production of the 580 EX II. This is the premier Speedlite for all photographers, including professionals. Newly designed to match with the EOS-1D Mark III in terms of improved dust- and water-resistance, body strength, and the ability to control flash functions and settings from the camera menu (EOS-1D Mark III only). Other features include improved communication reliability through its direct contacts, and recycling time is both 20% shorter than the 580EX and is completely inaudible. Optional External power supply - compatible with Dust- and water- Resistant External Power Pack, Canon battery pack CP-E3 and Transistor Pack E Unit Dimensions - 3.0 x 5.3 x 4.5 inches /76 x 134 x 114mm; Weight - 13.2 oz./375g, without batteries (4 AA alkaline batteries add 3.5 oz./100g)

Summary: Great Flash!
Comment: My wife was anticipating getting this new flash, as it was for her photography business and it had come time for her to upgrade and update her equipment, so of course when she got it, she loved it. Just one of the things that she liked about it was the fact that it is a lot easier to mount onto the camera. No, more turning to tighten and un-tighten that pain in the finger wheel on her old flash. This is a must have flash.

Summary: Excellent!
Comment: This flash is an excellent product from Canon. I used it for some wedding photography and the results were amazing! I was able to take photos from across the room with excellent results.

Summary: works like a dream
Comment: Love it, love it, love it!!!
I don't know much about using a flash, but I read some directions, set it to ETTL and took some photos. The exposure was spot on, and the skin tones were just perfect!!! I'm quite hooked on how well this works with my Canon 10D and highly recommend it to others who need a new flash attachment. This one is slick!

Summary: Excellent Flash- but get MAHA battery/chagr and a frame
Comment: This is a great flash for the xti. Use it instead of the on board flash, because it will add dimension to you photos.
At parties, or weddings, use it with a frame.
I use maha rechargeable batteries with this flash, and It has not failed to provide great photos.
The only thing that I would improve would be to give it a optical slave response, that way the on board flash can be used to trigger the main flash. Alas, no luck. Glad it has remote cable trigger though, for studio work.
Over all, I am pleased with this flash. When Canon comes out with an update, I'll gather up a few more of the ex2's.
