I'm 99% sure that Canon TTL only responds between Canon camera bodies and Canon Speedlites (or 3rd-party compatibles). > While the G2 is interesting, I have settled on smartmedia as my digital > storage choice (governed by my MP3 player) and am loathe to purchase yet > more memory of a different format (ie the CF of the G2).

Only Canon Powerrshot Digicams (Pro-90, G1, G2) can use Canon E-TTL speedlites. Realize that SmartMedia is limited to 128MB per card and CompactFlash is unlimited (1GB cards are available). And CF is cheaper than SM. Dave Herzstein [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.kjsl.com/~dave ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!
