New in our Camera Equipment Rental List: Canon Speedlite 580EXII


Check our website: http://cameracart.multiply.com/

To begin with, why the heck should photographers bother with an external flash if there's already a pop-up that comes free with the camera? Well, because the built-in's very small and it's located very close to the cam's axis. These are actually the reasons why you have red-eyed and/or harshly lit subjects. And if the flash is too close to your subject, then they tend to be overexposed. Background tends to be too dark. And the harsh shadows are just too darn ugly. Tsk tsk tsk!

Why get the 580EX II? It's because this flash is the best one out there in the Canon market. Great flashes like this one, can swivel around, can be used with a radio trigger so you can easily make variations as to where you put your light source. Plus, there are a lot diffusers that you can prop up on it. Result: less flat and better images.

More Photography Power!
Okay, let's see. Compared to the 430EX, the 580EX II has more light power. This will come as an advantage especially when you are using diffusers or if you like bouncing light off walls or ceilings. And compared to the 580EX, the 580EXII recycles 20% faster.

Yes Master
We love the 580EX II because it can be used as a master to trigger remote Canon wireless slave flashes while the 430EX can only act as a slave flash. It's nice to remember that the Canon 580EX II, 580EX and 550EX Speedlites can act as slave masters.

Maxed Out
Like the 580EX, the 580EX II also owns a zoom-capable flash head. That means that the zoom setting can be set manually or automatically by the camera communicating with the flash. Ergo, less energy is wasted, and the battery life is maximized.

Rent the Canon Speedlite 580EX II for:
1 Day - P600

*Prices are at a per day basis.
*Includes battery charger and four (4) rechargeable AA batteries
*Includes one (1) lambency
