FS: CANON 550EX SPEEDLITE FLASH 550 EX F/ EOS REBEL Used

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=3862251481

This is like new. I have used it twice. My wife wanted a smaller flash,
other wise we would keep it. It worked great indoors and has a strong solid
flash.

Description:

Speedlite 550EX is the main component of a new flash system designed
together with the EOS-3 SLR camera. It provides full compatibility with the
new area AF technology employed by the EOS-3 and refined E-TTL autoflash for
improved performance. Other main features include a maximum Guide Number of
180 (ISO 100, ft.), an AF-assist beam which links to the EOS-3's 45-point
area AF, FP Flash (high speed sync), FE lock (a flash version of AE lock),
and FEB (Flash Exposure Bracketing). The Speedlite 550EX also incorporates a
built-in wireless transmitter, which can control other Speedlite 550EX units
set up as slave units. Flash coverage is set automatically from 24mm to
105mm, and a wide-angle panel extends the coverage to 17mm. The new
Speedlite runs on 4 AA-size batteries, and can also be used with optional
external power supplies such as Compact Battery Pack E and Transistor Pack
E. Recycling times are faster than those experienced with the Speedlite
540EZ. Speedlite 550EX is compatible with all EOS models.
