The Canon 220EX flash is a very basic external flash. I purchased it for my Canon G10 camera so the size and portability of the flash was very important as this flash is only there to provide extra light output when the on camera flash is not enough. I also have the Canon 550EX and the 580EX flashes that I can use when I want to illuminate very large areas. The 220EX doesn't have any manual controls or any options that I utilize. It is a basic external flash with a reasonable recycle time. I found the recycle time to be adequate as compared to a friends 270EX flash. it recycles faster, probably because it uses 4AA batteries and not 2AA batteries. There is no bounce feature so the lighting is very direct. I'm working on ways to bounce the light vertically and horizontally and should have a solution very shortly. It's light output is decent for the size of the flash. Overall I would rate the flash as a Good purchase, but it has limitations. For 99.9% of its users it would be more than adequate for 99.9% of their needs - parties, gatherings, outdoor fill flash, etc.Vollständige Rezension lesen

Für diesen Blitz gilt das Gleiche, was ich in meinem Ratgeber für den 270EX geschrieben habe. Da ich feststellen musste, dass ich mit den 270EXer zwar alle Funktionen an meinem 1er-Gehäusen nutzen kann, nicht aber am "alten Schätzchen" 5D (High Speed geht nicht, Hilfslicht-Unterstützung ebenfalls Null) habe ich mir den Vorgänger-Blitz zugelegt. Er kann an der 5D fast alles, was die Hosentaschenblitzer der 270er-Serie an neueren Eos-Exemplaren auch können. Eines aber kann er nicht: Auf indirektes Blitzen muss man leider verzichten, es sei denn, man blitzt entfesselt. Ansonsten: Siehe meinen Testbericht über den 270EX. - Dieter Gerst
I've owned several of these over the years, and sold many when I was a Canon dealer. Good output for it's size, very easy to use, and since it uses four AA batteries, good recycle times. I was sorry to see it discontinued.
