Thanks everybody for your input What
What an awsome website with all the information at my fingertips I should be able to make the right decissions

That is what I was thinking I just can't justify spending $800 on a MR-14EX or $1300 on a MT-24EX

Thanks I will have to go there and read up on it

Thanks for the advice. I just don't know how often I am going to use it

I need a flash unit for my Canon MP-E 65mm 1-5 X Macro lens
My question is do I get a Canon for $800 or a after market
for $100
Help Please

I am the proud owner of a Canon 5D mark II with a EF 24-105mm.f 4L IS USM lens
second lens is a EF 8-15 mm f 4L Fisheye USM
third lens is a EF 16-35 mm f 2.8 L II USM
So the way I see it for a hobbyist like myself this is as good as it gets and call it top of the line
the only thing I still need is a good telephoto lens I am leaning towards a 100-400 canon

Last time I had time for this we where still using film
Now I have re-equipped myself with some top of the line digital and ready to learn all over again
