Re: Econo-- Bower SFD728C Flash for T1i?

I'm not familiar with that flash, but the crucial thing for me is its output is not adjustable, no flash exposure compensation, no manual mode, like your built-in flash in the Basic Zone modes. If you're sure that's all you'll ever want, fine, but I suspect that for a few dollars more (e.g. something from YongNuo), you could get something that will allow you to get inspired and go further with flash.

Anyway, one way to get some opinions is to check out the Customer Reviews at B&H - http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/515450-REG/Bower_SFD728C_SFD728C_TTL_Flash_for.html , and if you haven't already, have a look at the Flash section in the unofficial Rebel forum FAQ - http://snipurl.com/RebelFAQ .
