Canon 430EX Speedlite Flash for Canon Pro1, Pro 90, G Series and all EOS SLR Cameras

This exciting new addition to the EOS System combines compact size and affordability with an added dose of features and sophistication.

Flash compensation can be set on the flash unit, and manual control of the flash zoom head is now possible. Improvements in its circuitry make recycle time 40% faster, and since it is compatible with Canon's wireless E-TTL, it can be used as an affordable "slave unit".

awsome2008-12-02

Great for the beginner2008-11-30
As a novice photographer, I was looking for a flash to accompany my Canon Rebel xti. This fit the bill. The cost was reasonable relative to other flashes, and gave me the simplicity I was looking for as someone still learning the 'craft' of photography. Well worth the money.
Good Accessory2008-11-24
This flash is a good addd on if you have an EOS. It is small, portable/light which is a good thing. Larger and heavier flashes may put out more light when needed, or have faster recycle times, but this flash has worked fine for me.

It recycles fast enough (I have not missed a shot that I wanted because of the flash cycling too slowly) and it is fine for indoor use.
awsome flash!!2008-11-24
My flash went out on my cannon and I was back and forth on repairing it because it was cheaper to buy an external flash but I was concerned about the extra size of the flash but the pictures are way better now!!

Core 2 Duo Scaling
Laptop Scaling Intel's Core 2 Duo is easily the best mobile processor on the market today, boasting sky-high performance and low power consumption. But which CPU is for you: the super expensive T7600, the bargain-priced T5500, or something in between? This article will first take a look at the various versions of Core 2 Duo that Intel has to offer. We will compare Core 2 Duo clocked at four speed grades: 2.33GHz, 2.16GHz, 2GHz, and 1.83GHz in a variety of benchmarks and let you know how to get your best bang for the buck. Note: We will refer to a Core 2 Duo “T7000�multiple times in this article. We were unable to get a Merom sample with 2MB L2 cache, thus we lowered the clock speed of our 4MB L2 model to 1.83GHz to perform near that of the T5600 (1.83GHz, 2MB L2 cache), resulting in our unofficial “T7000�nomenclature. The Core 2 Duo Processor Intel has two lines of Core 2 Duo processors: notebook and desktop. Core 2 Duo for notebooks is codenamed Merom, while Core ...
