Hello Everyone,
I am getting ready to purchase my first speedlight for my T2i and I am unsure if I need a unit with High Speed Sync. I have settled on the fact that I want Ettl but am unsure if HSS is also a feature that should be on the unit I buy. The majority of the shooting I do is My daughters school/sports events, family parties, vacations,wildlife and various outdoor pics while just walking arround. The flash will mostly be used on camera but I will most likely use it off camera also.
Just to make sure I'm on the right track, I am looking at the following:
1)Canon 430 ex ii $250
2) Yongnuo YN 468 ii $90
3)Yongnuo YN 565 ex $150
4)Yongnuo YN 568ex $190
5)Metz 50 AF-1 $225
So do you guys find HSS is a feature you would have to have for your only speedlight, or do you use it so little you can do without it. Also if there is other units you recommend that I am missing, I'm all ears.
Thank you in advance
