Good ballance of the most used features for a flash.

It has a good balnce of the most needed features. FP (high speed shutter sync) wireless capability built in when used with command mode on the camera. I have used it with the Nikon D200 and D300. The head can go bacwards for bonce flash from behind when camera mounted. It has focus assist lighting, multi strobe feature, standby mode to save power, and auto zoom for the beam width. It is also fairly compact.Read full review

It's okay, but the slowish refresh limits its uses.

This flash is an old design and it's refresh rate is a bit on the slow side compared to new flashes. For studio work or stills it's fine. Definitely wouldn't recommend for events, however.

Inexpensive Powerhouse

If you need a flash that "WORKS!", this is an excellent choice. It has master/slave capability and a terrific guide number, combined with reasonable recycle time. The e-TTL feature works perfectly on my units, and output can be adjusted on the camera or directly on the unit using the digital display. It can be purchased for 25 to 50% of the going price of high end units if you shop carefully.Read full review

great product for my canon eos rebel t6

It mounts on camera easy. At the present time I am only using flash in auto. It really seems to do exactly what it is designed for. I am very pleased with the product. It being used, still looks like new.Read full review

Wide Angle Coverage and Fast Recycle

The Canon Speedlite 550EX is an work horse when it comes to photography. I love the wide angle aspect of it, as it covers most wide angle lens for splash. It also has a very fast recycle time that allows me to shoot photo after photo. Read full review

Canon 550 EX - great deal for the money.

The EXC++ Canon 550EX is an older flash, but works very well. This one replaces one that finally died, which I used for many years. It connects with my battery/power source to give me hours of worry-free shooting time.Read full review
