Need Flash Light that can work on XSI & 5D Mark II


Hi...

I currently own an XSI, my first DSLR, getting ready to upgrade to the 5D Mark II in the next couple of months. I need to buy a Flash that'd work on both of them. I intend to keep my XSI as backup camera. Any recommendation on which is the best brand to get? Thank you so much.

  If you are talking about a on-camera flash I would recommend the Canon Speedlite 580EX. It will work nicely on both of them. You could also opt for the Speedlite 430EX. There are a couple of difference; 1 being the ability to use an external battery pack. I have 1 of each and am happy with the results.
