Rated 5 out of 5 by from Far better than my skills. I love it!Great flash, very capable and useful. It is fun to use, but there is a bit of a learning curve. Being all plastic I do worry about long term durability so I got the extended warranty something I rarely do.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Easy to useI purchased the Speedlite flash about four weeks ago. At first I was afraid to use it. However, once I took it out of the box, I realized how easy it is to use. The quality of my pictures has increased tremendously! I am a gifted amateur, but figuring out light has always eluded me. Not anymore! Thank you Canon

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A great flash overallI'm pleasantly surprised by this flash. It actually meets or even exceeds the promises made. Pretty fast in auto-finding the best angle and intensity if flash light. And there is always manual mode to override if you feel so. Its a great package and must have; especially for beginners in flash photography.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great flash & easy to useI've had the flash for about 3 weeks and really like it. The auto bounce feature is easy to use and does a good job of eliminating washed-out subjects and minimizing shadows. I have used it in full auto mode and have not had time to experiment with the advanced manual settings, but the flash so good in auto, there is probably little need to take it off of auto mode.
