Bringing a new level of
versatility and capability to flash photography, the
Speedlite
430EX II features a powerful flash (guide number of 141 ft./43m
at ISO 100) with a fast recycling time in a compact, durable body. A
one-touch quick-lock mechanism makes it easy to attach or detach the
430EX II from the camera and a metal foot has been added for
strength and durability. Flash controls can now be set through the
camera's LCD screen on compatible EOS Digital
SLR cameras. The
Speedlite
430EX II is also quieter, recycle time is 20% faster (as
compared to the
430EX) and since it is compatible with Canon's wireless
E-TTL, it can be used as an affordable "slave unit".
