NEW FLASH

My old external flash doesn't swivel at all and is almost as old as I am but I will still use it. This one swivels and will help out in studio shooting. Not the most expensive one, but a good one. Billy got this for me....thank you, Sweetie! Can't wait to use it at the wedding I will be shooting tomorrow!

I cut my (flash) teeth on a Sony 717 with a Sunpak 383s that both tilts and swivels. I wouldn't have a flash that didn't do both after that. The possibilities are endless when you can bounce your flash wherever you want.

My last ever purchase on EBay was a 580 EXII.Like Terri I haven't got it figured out either....sure burns through batteries though!
Nice gift from da man!

Congrats on that new flash. Billy IS a sweetie.

You'll find a big difference. They are wonderful - but it may be worth getting a diffuser?

Best of luck with the wedding shoot!
