very practical flash
I bought this because of it its small size and ease of use. I needed an external flash for indoor photography for reducing red eye and deer-caught-in-headlight effect.

Nice, but all features do not work on Rebel XTi
Nice flash, better than the built-in pop-up flash on my Rebel XTi. However, the AF-assist on the flash will not work on an XTi, even with the lastest XTi firmware.

smaller canon flash for my 5b, II
seems to work well, with known limitations. Use as fill flash mostly. /Does a nice job.

Sweet
I bought this flash to go on a G10. It seemed the perfect one for a p&s, scompact and easy to carry like the G10.

It doesn’t weigh 10 lb!
I’ve used a 580EX II and own a 430EX II. Of course those swivel everywhere, has proper AF assist that doesn’t involve firing the actual flash, and can fill flash a whole room…
