I need a flash for my Canon 10d for wedding photography use...any suggestions?


can I use a flash I have for my manual camera on my digital?

What is your manual camera? If its an Eos then go for it.

a

I have a Canon Speedlite 550EX It works great with my D60, D20, and D5

buy used, way way cheeper. And sometimes just as good as quality. work the ebay or the amazon.

I love my canon 580ex. I use it at every wedding. Check out my website and you can see some sample shots. www.eandjimages.com

Be very careful about what flash you use on your digital. If it is not dedicated to that camera you could burn out your whole electronic system. When in doubt, use a safe sync with the flash.

You can use a manual flash, but then you would need to do all the calculations in your head for guide numbers and such.

If your serious, get the 580ex. It will talk to your camera and lens and give you reliable exposures, very important. Also it recycles amazingly fast and is just made to be a work horse.

If you cant buy one, rent it. If your only going to do a wedding for a friend, then rent. It will be worth the expense.
