I am looking to get a flash for the first time. I am looking to go as inexpensive as possible and looking at yougnuo flashes. I'm just wondering if Ttl for canon is worth it or not. I would like the head to swivel. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

NICE review on the Pixel Mago flash unit, lambertpix!
Where would you buy pixel mago. I can find reviews but no place to purchase.
I have read on Thom Hogan's site that the blatant copies coming out of China are made possible by industrial espionage, in which ACTUAL injection moulding moulds are stolen. Apparently, there are many,many,many moulds used to make the housings of many of today's industrial products, so....moulds are stolen and then sold, and thus there are knock-offs, like say the Meike flash units that are basically externally anatomically EXACT clones of say, the Nikon SB910 flash unit. It is my understanding that the Chinese have a different view of piracy than we do here in the west. I have for many years read that in China, it is estimated that 80 percent or more of all software is illegally cloned rip-off stuff. Same with DVD movies and such as well.
Is it anything like this?I have the Yongnuo 568EX II and have been pretty happy with it. Only issue I had is that the set up can be difficult as the manual that comes with it is horrible.
