Canon 550 EX Flash for G6, G5, G3, G2, G1, Pro1, Pro90 & all EOS SLR Cameras

Nothing better than Canon's SUPERB "E-TTL" flash sensing ... and the 550EX is a high-powered workhorse you can rely on. Expensive but worth the bucks.

Excellent flash for my canon 10d. Adorama saved me about $140.00 dollars. Service was great.

This is one fantastic flash. I had it on my Canon A2e for four years, and was ambivilent, but if you match this lens with one of Canon's newer bodies that has the funcionality to access all of the 550EX's features, you have an awesome, powerful, flexable flash that can change the way you shoot.

This unit performs exactly as it is described it will. It's worth seeking out a product description on the source of your choice. Easy to use in automatic modes, and fully capable of meeting a great variety of situations through it's manual modes.

Easy to learn interface, fast recycle times, good battery life, solid construction, expansive coverage. I never think twice about including it in whatever bag I'm carrying, indoors out out.

Master-slave capability will meet the needs of many pros and most all avocational photographers. Hot shoe or bracket mounted, it delivers.

I've always had a strong bias for natural light, but this unit has helped me get beyond that to optimize marginal or difficult lighting situations. It has expanded my horizons as an amatuer photographer.
