    someone is selling a half-year old 550EX flash for $450 here http://forums.clubsnap.org/showthread.php?t=167662

    if you are serious in shooting your fish, has a Canon camera with hotshoe, then this is a damn good deal.

    Buy! Buy! Buy!

    what lens did you get?

    when I got into this, I spent the money on flash and wireless as you cannot do without them. I spent much less on the body (in fact it's just a digicam!). But the combo gets the job done, not perfect but works.

    I don't think I'll manage what I have done spending on a DSLR and good lens but without flash.

    Sigma 105mm macro. I like playing with it... But yes, agree, flash is very important... But well, I can do more non-fish photography first...

    I agree. Flash is a godsend for aquatic photography.. This is a decent deal, especially since it's still under warranty (remember to ask for photocopy of receipt).

    Cheers,

    p.s DON'T GET THE 75-300! DON'T SHOOT NON FISH PHOTOGRAPHY. IT'S A TRAP.
    I have dwarf cichlids in my tanks! Do you?

    why? I heard my EF 100mm makes a great portrait lens. so I should start signing up for model shoots
