I need advice on an affordable external flash for my camera?
I am a portrait and wedding photographer and need a external flash for my camera. I have a canon 40d but will be upgrading to the 7d next year. I intend to get a much better flash at that time but right now I am on a budget and can’t afford to spend hundreds of dollars on a flash. I am looking at the canon 420ex but some are recommending off brand flashes that are a bit lower in price yet they say are just as good or even better than the canon 420ex. I am making my decision at the end of the week and would love some input on flashes. I mainly do weddings so that is my main purpose for the flash right now. I have studio lighting for portrait photography. Thank you in advance for any help. If you have a specific flash you use please state the name and how you feel it works with your canon. Please only put flashes that will work with my canon dslr.
If you’re a portrait/wedding photographer then I would think you’d be using off camera flash in manual mode (ie not TTL).
If so, I’d recommend a Yongnuo 460-MkII (£41 on eBay) plus a set of wireless triggers (Yongnuo RF602 £27 for 1x transmitter + 1x receiver). These work well together for location and studio photography, with appropriate light modifiers
Excellent quality reliability & will work perfectly with Canon. No issues with range as its a radio system not optical.
