Pros:Construction, upgraded functions compared to the 580ex ii, speed and accuracy of measurement, balance, weight despite the larger volume, reliability.
Cons:Cost still in used, fragile compared to its predecessors, original transmitter lacking focusing light.
Opinion:Recently purchased to upgrade to my dear 580ex, a nice step forward despite the age and advancement of the new models for mirrorless, a reliable, powerful, useful flash in all situations and photographic work fields, with all the functions clear and updated comfortably for the most demanding photographers, the best quality even today, resistant to bursts and responsive even in the fastest systems, with a completely improved white balance, as the predecessors still maintained a dominant tending to warm tones... a very precise lightning measurement accuracy even in speed and really beautiful colors ... I expected it a little more robust in materials, a fall can easily compromise its operation so be careful! For the rest I really recommend it to everyone if you do not want to incur in competitive products!
Pros:Construction, reliability, has everything you need.
Cons:I did not find any
Opinion:The quality is always the same that distinguishes Canon products, no improvised stuff and born to last. Having already had the opportunity to use and still own two Speedlite 550EX that have made history, a Speedlite 580EXII that after the purchase I used mainly as a Master with the two 550EX as slaves, with the transition to the 600EX-RT (I took two) together with the ST-E3-RT radio transmitter a new world of photographing with more flashes has opened up as with this system you can control everything remotely and you do not have to worry, with respect to the optical system, of any obstacles between the master unit and the slaves. Highly recommended compared to some apparently similar cinesate but that melt in the hand and zero reliability. The more you spend in the end, the less you spread.
Pros:One of canon's best flashes. Powerful and robust, always reliable.
Cons:It tends to overheat after many synchro flashes, but it is everyone's problem.
Opinion:Used for 6 years, I was initially in trouble on the types of rechargeable batteries, then discovered the excellent Eneloop Pro (black 2500 mAh) and the white Eneloops (from 1900mAh), powerful batteries that led it several times and with many synchron flashes to overheat but never with blocking problems. It needs to recharge if you overdo it but just calculate the times. Jellies as an accessory have been used in different contexts and have made good. It dialogues very well with all, 5D, 1DX, RP, R5, excellent yield in fast sync TTL. Good lamp unlike Nissin, Mertz and other ciofeche. After years of honorable service I keep it to support the extraordinary GODOX V1C. The battery compartment makes you worry about the times, it seems delicate. Used in the rain for a few minutes, he pulled ahead badly. A flash to keep always even if it has its years. They are not accessories for their own sake, spending a few hundred euros more always makes a difference.
Opinion:I bought it to do some jobs especially matrimonii where he acted great, without using lil boring but useful and indispensable manual, I immediately found it very well in setting the many functions available. And with a really extreme situations especially during a wedding, where in July in church there were 39 degrees, so much so that the plastic filter holder in the bag I have deformed, this x make you understand the conditions under which the excellent Canon 600/RT has fa TTO a fold, x all wedding where he shot always great great ... we are at the TOP for me Matthew
Pros:precise, consumes little battery, wireless radio ttle with the second flash, price sufficiently content
Cons:ttle forces still in continuous adjustments so balance still good background and subject, you still "trick" too much of the difference in luminance
Opinion:I bought 2 for professional reasons. very comfortable to use although the menu sometimes confusing, but you just get used to it. I can control the differences of power directly from the master, the great radio connection in ttle, does not force you to make eye contact between the two flash. In contrast is precisely the use of ttle that fooled too apparent from the luminance of the scene and forces in continuous adjustments of power. Great use in mixed light as a single flash with high ISO. From there the best perfectly calibrating the light flash with the environment and completely disappears every uncertainty ttle. Very powerful. It 'a flash that would absolutely, especially in pairs, where the results will delight you.
