Ok I'm trying arrange and decide what setup to go for.
Right now I'm thinking a 580ex, with two 550ex's. Are there better third party flashes ATM, than the 550's?
I have the 580ex and a couple other flashes I was going to use as slaves, but I have the chance of a very well priced 550ex, which I'm led to believe is technically better than the 430ex which I also already have ATM. Plus the 550ex can be a master, which the 430 can't...means ill always have a master IYSWIM.
Yes, I'm starting out and the only thing I think I really want/require is to have a 3 flash setup, for softbox setups. I know I don't NEED this, but it sounds like this set of flashes would cover everything?
