Canon S80 with external flash?
How does the S80 control the total flash output when an external HF-DC1
flash is used? The reason I'm asking is because I want to know if other external flashes can be used with S80. I already have canon's 580ex. I also have generic handle mount flashes (from the old days). It is too bad canon doesn't make a version of S80 with hotshoe. The G7 is not useful to me because it is missing the most useful feature of the S80 -- 28mm eq. wide angle. Having to add a lens adapter doesn't count (it may ruin the telephoto end of the zoom, and adds lens distortion..)

Such a camera could affect the sales of the Canon D-SLRs. Next thing you are going to ask is RAW support! Hahaha! Some people...
