Question I just bought a Canon EOS Digital Rebel.
Previous camera was a Canon T70.
I have been a very amateur photographer for 40+yrs.
I shoot wildlife, western landscape, antique cars & airplanes.
I would like to get advise on the best auto flash for use in auto & airplane museums.
I hate trial and error purchasing.
Thanks in advance.

Answer Jack,
I've always had the best luck using a flash made by the same company that made the camera. In your case that is Canon so you might look at the Canon 220EX Speedlite TTL Shoe Mount Flash which is about $105 with a rebate or if you want something more powerful then try the Canon 420EX Speedlite TTL Shoe-Mount Flash which is about $175.
