Canon 580EX II Speedlite Flash + Gary Fong Lightsphere-II with Inverted Dome + 4 Batteries & Charger for Canon EOS Rebel XT, XTi, XS, XSi, T1i, 50D, 40D, 5D SLR Digital Cameras

Canon's state of the art 580EX II Speedlite is fully compatible with the electronics of Canon EOS Digital & Film SLRs including Canon's E-TTL, E-TTL II & TTL dedication. This top-of-the-line flash is as good as it gets with more power, faster recycling time, more automatic and professional modes for creative effects, plus improved dust- and water-resistance. The 580EX II's auto-zoom head automatically adjusts to lenses from wide-angle to telephoto and a built-in ultra-wide angle panel provides flash coverage for a 14mm lens. The height of the 580EX helps to greatly reduce or eliminate red-eye and its flash head bounces and swivels for professional-looking portraits. Canon 580EX II includes: Case; Stand; Instructions; Canon USA Warranty.

Great looking flash pictures aren't just about how powerful or expensive the flash is, it's about the quality and texture of the light (soft and diffuse versus direct and harsh).

The Gary Fong Lightsphere II Inverted Dome Flash Diffusion combo includes the Lightsphere II with the standard inverted dome. The Lightsphere is a large, round, soft and flexible diffuser that slips over the front of compatible flash units. The inside of the Lightsphere is completely textured to make the light dispersion even more "soft" than it would be otherwise. And because of this design, it is possible to make the material more translucent, keeping the unit from losing a lot of light while actually increasing the diffusion and softness of light. The standard inverted dome allows you to softly diffuse direct light with a large, soft source without creating flare on the front of your lens.
