I've narrowed down my choice of flash for my EOS 55 to the 540EZ. The reasons are frankly, the 550EX is too expensive, and I don't want E-TTL in any case. The 540EZ is the only other flash where I can go to plain TTL on this camera. I understand the 430EZ and 420EZ both give the annoying pre-flash of A-TTL.
I have no use for a pre-flash, or A-TTL - plain old TTL will do for me. Plus I like a powerful flash with manual settings. Plus, the 540EZ can be bought for a reasonable price. Comments? Is the above correct? I thought long and hard about E-TTL, but in the end, having a pre-flash is my primary beef. And all other EX flashes cannot be set for TTL only. And I used TTL with my EOS 10 and the 380EX in the past very successfully. Now that I have flash compensation onboard, it will be even better. * **** ******* *********************************************************** * For list instructions, including unsubscribe, see: * http://www.a1.nl/phomepag/markerink/eos_list.htm ***********************************************************
