Pass. > >Why do you need to stick the batteries and dummy in the 580EX ? The flash needs powering for its internal electronics IIRC. It doesn't need 4 AAs, it can get away with 3. There's a function to set the flash power to be solely provided by the external battery (Quantum), which I have set. I never use the 580 without the Quantum. I have a 420EX that is used as a second / backup with some AAs.
