would there be any real advantage in getting the 580ex ii over the 430ex ii?

i posted a few days ago asking about what flash to get for ~200$. i was at a concert last night talking to one of the other photographers there and he was using the 580ex ii. he said he loved it and that it did everything that he wanted it to do pretty well. so now that is starting to make me think that i should save up for it. it is only ~200$ more than the 430ex ii.

but i guess my real question(s) would be: what are the major differences between the two? other than the whole master/slave thing. and should i just go ahead and buy the 580ex ii based on the fact i can use it as a master even though you can use the OCF for that same very thing?


my brain is frazzled. HELP! :confused: :confused:
