The only flash I have for my XTI is the on camera. It's weak and photos taken with it look horrible. Standard stuff there.
I've been reading the Strobist site (http://www.strobist.com) and have a question about flash. Is there any benefit to getting a Canon flash (430ex, 580ex) for this method? Will they even work in manual mode?
I think it makes sense to get 2 vivitar flashes (non-dedicated manual) for the price of one canon flash. But I would lose the ability for TTL lens metering if I did want it on camera for any reason.
Thoughts\Opinions? I've changed my mind 300 times on this one...
