Canon Flash

A great flash and it really compliments my new Canon Camera. I have used this numberous times and have not been disappointed with the results.

canon speedlite 220EX - a suitable accessory for my S5IS

I purchased this item from Amazon for my Powershot S5IS two months back. The purpose of my going for this is to substitute the use of the built-in flash in case I resort to use the Wide Angle Lense attachment. This extenal flash works considerably well for this purpose. Remember I used the word " Substitute ". It is, because the EFFECTIVE RANGE of this flash is little farther than the built-in flash. The maximum range of the built-in flash is 17ft. The maximum range of this external flash is specified as 51ft. But to my experience it is not more than the half way i.e. about 24-25ft. Any how, it justifies my saying it a " Substitute ". When the Wide Angle attachment is used the built-in flash can not be used, as it gives a hemispherical shadow on the lower side of the picture due the 58mm size. Hence, it is suggestive to have an exterrnal flash to substitute the built in flash. While using the Wide Angle attachment and the external flash I observed some times the focus and the white balance changes. Hence, one has to make adjustments for these two things before shooting. Over all the external flash serves as a good substitute for the built-in flash of the S5IS. I have taken some beautiful pictures during a marriage ceremony in India a few days ago. I am satisfied with the performance of this flash for the purpose I needed it.

Good product

For those who have bought a Canon digital camera with an external flash shoe, this is a very useful adjunct. Of course if one has the camera with which this unit is fully compatible, it is essential to have this. I have tried shooting objects 30' away upping the ASA to 200 and got excellent results which no in-built flash can give.

great product

this is the perfect flash for my G10 it works perfect would recomend for anyone using a smaller camera

Product Description

Designed for automatic operation only, the 220EX flash unit excels at providing natural-looking balanced flash exposures. When attached to the advanced cameras, such as EOS IX, EOS Elan II/Elan IIe, or EOS Rebel G, the 220EX delivers the benefits of the Canon's superior technology. These include Canon's unique E-TTL evaluative pre-stored flash exposure control system, FE Lock for a new dimension of creative control and FP Flash (high-speed sync) for flash photography up to maximum shutter speed. When used with other cameras, it operates as a TTL autoflash (off-the-film flash metering).When in E-TTL operation, flash exposure is measured and controlled by the camera in combination with Canon's AIM system. Subject position, ambient light level, evaluative metering and pre-flash data are instantly analyzed, including heavy backlighting or reflections from background windows or mirrors.

Amazon.com Product Description

Featuring a recycle time of 0.1 to 4.5 seconds, the Canon Speedlite 220EX is a fully automatic flash, compatible with all Canon EOS cameras. The 220EX can also utilize E-TTL operation when paired with the Canon EOS IX, EOS ELAN II/IIE, and EOS Rebel G. Sporting a save-energy feature, whereby the flash is shut down after 90 seconds of idle, the 220EX is powered by four AA batteries, and has a flash capacity between 250 and 1,700. The convenience and ease of use ensure the 220EX a place in the hands of amateur photographers who want a high-quality flash, but aren't interested in learning to use the professional features of Canon's other offerings.
