Okay, so I was looking at the Canon Speedlite Flash (320EX) for my t2i w/ tameron 17-50mm. This is just the flash the people at the camera shop strongly recommended. So is this flash worth the $270 or should I look at something else. Also, with this flash would I be able to have a shutter speed over 1/200? I really know not to much in the realm of speedlights so I was just looking for a bit of imput. I have a really old flash that is only noticeably better on my 6.5mm fisheye so is spending about 300 on this that worth it or maybe I should just use that cash to get some other lens. Yes I searched but I didn't find too much on this flash specifically.

+k for help!

i have the same problem i looked for some good time last night and talked to some people the basic idea i got from them was that the YN-565EX was good for the price and should get most of the job done i think im ordering one or one like it unless anyone else has a better suggestion. good luck

Got myself a yn 560 for $50 and cant wait to get another! I absolutely love it! You will need to learn what settings to use as its full manual, but it'll save u several hundred. Great power, the build quality is said to be cheap, but mine already survived a 6' fall onto pavement, so ya its an awesome flash
