Hi, I've had various "big" Canon flashes over the years, and chose the 420ex because of it's size when I needen an EX flash. It has fewer options (manual zoom, can't be a master, some other options are unavailable). The important ones (FEP and 2.curtain sync) are available on the flash. Flash exp. compensation can be set in the camera, which leaves me with very few things I need to fiddle with that aren't available in some way. I voted for smaller size, being fed up with the huge monsters. The flash output has so far been sufficient for my needs. I'm very happy with it, for use on EOS 5, 1n and G2. -Terje * **** ******* *********************************************************** * For list instructions, including unsubscribe, see: * http://www.a1.nl/phomepag/markerink/eos_list.htm ***********************************************************
