Thanks Ken, my new 550EX came today, now I have a manual to read. It sounds more like a red-eye reduction scheme than a real modelling light. However, it seems my EOS 55 can't use it. No big deal, I'd never need it. Hey, the book never actually mentioned a 55, might as well try it. * **** ******* *********************************************************** * For list instructions, including unsubscribe, see: * http://www.a1.nl/phomepag/markerink/eos_list.htm ***********************************************************
