I thought long and had about spending this much for a flash unit. This was my second year of doing the local football games and with a start time of 7:30 pm, it didn't take long before there was no daylight to take pictures by. We can't afford big fancy lens, so a good flash was the best answer. I set my camera to 1/200th in the manual mode and boost the ASA to 1600. I get good clear pictures with the unfortunate demon eyes effect in many. I use Photoshop to correct. I love the distance this flash will cover. I also like the fact that my camera battery lasts longer since I am not using the built in flash. I did invest in and recommend good rechargeable AA batteries for the unit. I can't believe I waited this long to get an external flash!Get more detail about Canon Speedlite 580EX II Flash for Canon EOS Digital SLR Cameras.
