It's time to add to my camera bag but I can't decide which one to get. Sorry for posting another one of these "what should I do" threads but I just wanted your opinion.
Here are my choices:
1. Canon 430ex
2. Battery grip and Gary Fong modifier
I currently have a promaster flash but there are no manual modes and it does not swivel. I was pushing for the 430 because I can take portrait shots and bounce off the ceiling. Right now I can't.
I also wanted the grip because I need the extra battery life and again taking portrait style pictures would be more comfortable. The problem is, I can only buy one. Since the flash will run me about $250, I can't buy the modifier. But I can afford to buy the grip and a modifier for my existing flash.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
