[QUOTE="hark, post: 374103, member: 13196"] Yes, this is important. I'm not familiar with the capabilities of all the flashes mentioned, but have you considered whether you want a flash that offers high-speed shutter sync? I don't think every flash made has that capability. Do all flash units work wirelessly or in commander mode? I don't know the answer myself, but if they don't, then maybe some of the other members can elaborate on this. More expensive flash units can cover a greater distance (the guide number that was mentioned earlier) and illuminate much farther than the built in flash. Do you have any idea how far you want it to reach? If you answer some of these questions (and possibly others), perhaps we can hone in on which unit will best meet your needs. :) [/QUOTE]
