Review on Enhance Your Photography with the Canon Speedlite 580EX II Flash for Canon EOS Digital SLR Cameras by Arun Kumar ᠌

Let me start by saying that the flash was really impressive. With a lowered reflector and a raised head, it shines through a room of 60 square meters. m. with ceilings of 6 m. Even the iso did not have to be bullied. What surprised me was that with its power it is very economical. Before that, I sat on Sony, so compared to them, the 580th generally feeds on air and at the same time eats away batteries to zero. It charges very quickly and is silent. If you like the whistling sound when charging the flash, then I do not recommend this device to you))) The head rotates 360 degrees, which is very convenient. When working in wireless mode, it clearly catches the impulse. Automation works fine, almost no need to use correction. The only minus found is the lack of a low battery indicator, Canon never made one. Inconvenient, more than once the batteries have run out at the most inopportune moment. The only way to determine that the batteries are dead is by the flash ready indicator that does not light up. In general, the flash is excellent, the best in the Canon line, it is better not to compare it with analogues, because they are too much inferior to it. In general, a device from the category of "must have".
