photo11 Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 Hi, I have the Canon EOS 1N RS, as I'm sure you know the Canon EZ flash series was the recommended unit. I will be going digital soon, can I use the 550EX or 580EX so as to be compatible for digital later on. Thanks. Mike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave_coleman Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 Yes, you can, at least with the 550EX. The flash manual explains how to use it. I would hazard the guess that you can use it with the 580 as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_dunn2 Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 <p>Yes, and yes. The only thing an EZ flash will do with that body that an EX flash will not is A-TTL metering, which most people say isn't worth much anyway. So go ahead and get either a 550 or 580, depending on which is a better fit for your current and future needs.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
