sorry for the newb question...
having done some research it looks like Canon Speedlite 220EX works with G-series Canons.
Amazon.com: Canon Speedlite 220EX for Canon Pro1, Pro 90, G Series and all EOS SLR Cameras: Electronics
as this camera is basically a p.o.s. i picked on craigslist i don't want to invest too much into it. i just want an external flash that works decently.
the above Speedlite is $120, yet there are a lot of $50 flashes that work on DSLR's. will some of these work on the G5 even if it doesn't specifically specify so ? i understand that i'm looking for TTL . . . .
at some point i will upgrade and get something good, but for now this is it....
for what it's worth... the reason i want the flash is that the built-in flash causes a massive shadow when trying to get past the wide-angle converter lens... as clear in this picture
thanks..............
