Speedlite 550EX
Strength:
The new E-TTL with EOS3
Weakness:
None at all The exposure is much much better than the 540EZ on the EOS3 and EOS50e. Thanks to the E-TTL metering. I would say it is a close match to the D-metering of the Nikons. Still as heavy as the old 540, some people may find the SB-28 a much lighter choice than the Canon. However, I must admit that all the powerful Canon flashes make a louder 'phaser' sound when charging, especially in a quiet environment like a wedding in a church. Customer Service Haven't got problems yet, thank God. Similar Products Used: EZ540, EZ420, EX380 in the |
