If you are a beginner who is just coming to terms with their Canon EOS DSLR camera, this Canon Speedlite 580 EX II is a great item for you to try your hand at high-quality artificial lighting, at a budget price and in a compact package. For increasing the power of your portraits and similar photographs in low-light conditions, you can't go past the Canon Speedlite 580 EX II.

An E-TTL II compatible flash, the 580 EX II allows you to simply point and shoot, and your camera and flash will work out all of the essential settings for you. If you do like to delve into things a little more, this unit features an easy to understand button configuration and backlit LCD at its rear. If you are interested in the more flattering and more naturally-appearing bounce flash, the Speedlite 580 EX II obliges, with a head that rotates left and right 180 degrees, as well as 90 degrees up and -7 degrees down. Compared to older models in this range, this flash is faster and quieter in performance, and it also includes a better battery performance, including weather-resistance.
