This is interesting news since the Rebel has much of the 10D inside. I have a friend who uses a 10D with a 550EX flash and his exposures are about 1/2 off some of the time so he has adjusted flash exposure compensation to account for this. Going the other way as this other person says I think wrong. It is using the auto sensor on the flash which is less accurate. I had Metz flashes and found the auto sensor to underexpose slightly (about 1/2 stop) while the Canon 550EX was dead on.
