Help me choose a flash

Jul 20, 2002

Hello,

I need flash suggestions.

I'm getting a 1d and will shoot a lot of news/sports where I'll be getting available light, or need to get close in to the action.

Is there a "best" Canon flash? The 550?

I'm wondering if there's a quick cycling small flash good for "snaps" that won't be as obtrusive as the large 550. I'll need to grab quick shots and a flash that has good diffussion would be nice.

Technology, it's just like Nebraska weather, 'If you don't like it, wait an hour, it'll change.'
