Well, for a couple of reasons, I've sold my *istD. I was generally happy with it, the only real problem was the slow write speed and small buffer, which has become increasingly aggravating. But I shoot a lot with a group (TPMG) which is heavily composed of Canon-users, and so I've gone and

The thing was that it wasn't a standard studio strobe setup (the other light setup we used was and I was triggering that with my Nikon SB-24) but we were using a 580EX and 430EX on stands with umbrellas all controlled by one of several ST-E2's. Which, since it's E-TTL only, doesn't work with a
