Editorial Review:

Product Description:
This exciting new addition to the EOS System combines compact size and affordability with an added dose of features and sophistication. Improving on the previous model, Speedlite 420EX, the new 430EX can now be set into manual flash mode (full power~1/64). Flash compensation can be set on the flash unit, and manual control of the flash zoom head is now possible. Improvements in its circuitry make recycle time 40% faster, and since it is compatible with Canon's wireless E-TTL, it can be used as an affordable "slave unit". Wide-angle pull-down panel covers 14mm lens (on a full-frame camera) Zoom positions - 24mm, 28mm, 35mm, 50mm, 70mm, 80mm, 105mm; Indicated by numerals on the LCD's focal length display Image Size Zoom Control - With cameras compatible with auto zoom, it zooms automatically to match the camera's image size Guide Number 141 ft./43m (at ISO 100); flash head at 105mm zoom setting Auto conversion of flash zoom coverage with compatible digital SLRs White balance info communicated instantly to compatible digital SLRs Bounce upward to 90 degrees; swivel right (to 90 degrees) and left (to 180 degrees) 14% lighter and approx. 25% smaller in overall volume than top-of-the-line 580EX Six flash custom functions built into the 430EX (set on rear LCD panel) Power Source - Four AA-size Alkaline Batteries (6V) or Four AA-size NiMH Rechargeable (4.8V) - both not included Unit Dimensions - 2.8 x 4.8 x 4.0 in./72 x 122 x 101mm / Weight - 11.6 oz./330g (without batteries)




Rating: - Very good for the price...
Very good for the price that is easy to use, my camera is a 350D (XT) and the configuration can handle it from there. The low point is that you can not shoot in remote wireless adapter or without fee is about the same price of the flash. I recommend 99%.

Greetings from Chile.!

Rating: - good but not pefect
this speedlite unit is good for indoor photography.
Pros:
1. light quality
2. build quality
3. recycling time, much better than the flash lights I used before.

Cons:
1. off camera flash ability
2. the screw-on button is not convenient
3. the index (430) is not high enough

Rating: - Great Flash!
I am just starting out so this is a great flash for the price. I've never used it straight on, but bouce it which works great! I wish I would have got a diffuser with it though.

Great buy!

Rating: - Not a pro? This is for you!
Last Christmas I surprised my wife with a Digital Rebel xti (10.1 megapixel). We're not pros, but we do take a lot of pictures. All year, she enjoyed the camera, but I had been somewhat disappointed that the photos were not all that remarkably different from our 6.1 megapixel Kodak Easyshare point and shoot camera.

Throughout the past year, I continued to think that the lack of "wow factor" must be due to only having the standard 18-55 mm lens that came standard with the camera. ... Read More

Rating: - Don't delay buying a flash, it a must have.
I have a canon EOS Rebel EX and I purchased this to shoot at a wedding. I had previously shot indoor and was not happy with the stock flash on the camera. After using this flash I wish I had purchased it a long time ago. It is easy to use and found that bouncing the flash opens up a world of possibilities. I gave it five stars as I have not had any problems with it yet. I have only had it for a month and so far its great. I have never used any other flashes for the camera so I do not a have ...
