Both of these flashes will work on your camera. The 430EX II is just the brand new version of the 430EX with some additional features, a faster recyle time and a better mount. I'm not certain if the 430EX II is worth its 50% higher price though it should offer better performance and convenience with your XSi. Both flashes are currently being offered with a $30 instant rebate and will give you excellent results. BTW, when shooting with flash, point it at the ceiling for a nice diffuse lighting effect and set your camera to MANUAL so that the flash will completely control the exposure. Also run a web search for "bounce card" for a simple and cheap way to improve your flash shots even more.

You can use up to a 64mb SD card. Be sure you get a class 10 card for video capability. This card will work just fine in your Canon 430F.

I personally am getting the T1i for my first DSLR. I have a film SLR and an advanced P&S; type camera that I use now. I consider myself and advanced amateur and understand how to manipulate the manual settings. The XSi and the T1i are not vastly different as far as how the menu's or controls are set up. The T1i is more advanced as far as sensor, megapixels, LCD screen resolution, and the fact that it can do video if you want it to. For the extra money, I want the T1i's extra features.

it's great w/ the rebel T1i. might contact canon to see if both models are the same.

Hi H,Canon only make the model 600EX RT with a built-in 2.4 GHz radio trigger system. The 430EX model is not and therefore can only be triggered from 600EX RT via optical mode.

I have the 430 ex and it works. Etta and everything. The connection on the flash hot shoe is tight and I have to make sure the connection is pushed all the way into the hotshot otherwise Ettl does not work. It is just a tight fit and I have read reviews that the cord doesn't work with Ettl and think users are just having a problem connecting it because they don't want to break their flash. It works for me and is great.

Actually, I have done it. If the 430EXii is in slave mode and the red part of the flash is pointed towards any other flash, the 430EXii will fire if the original flash is powerful/close enough. Happy shooting.

Do you mean the Rebel XSI? I own a XSI and a 60D this trigger works fine with both cameras, using the same cable. It also works on the T3i. These are the only cameras Ive tested with but sure it works on others as well.

Of course, all the rebels can use EF and EF-S lenses. I had an XTi (which pre-dates the T2i) and it could use it. If your camera has a red dot it can use an EF lens. I am certain it does. And this lens is a steal -- $200 off retail just because it comes in a bundle with a cheap UV filter. Why? No one knows, but $200 is $200!!

I should work with the Canon 3Ti. I have the T1i and it works with mine. I don't think Canon changed that much between the two cameras for it not to work. The all can use the same Canon Flash, and the same lenses, so I would assume that it would also work with the Canon 3Ti.

I have the Xsi and I love it. Think about whether or not it's worth $250 extra just to have video and 3 more megapixels. The Xsi has 12.1 megapixels, but that's still enough to make a good poster sized print. I think those are the two biggest differences in the two cameras, so just decide whether or not those extras are worth the extra cash. Good luck! :)

As a novice photographer should I start with XSi to see if I will really get into photography? Or would you recommend T1i to be my first dSLR?

I can respond to you only with the flash models I have tried. It works with the Fuji EF 42 very well but it serves only to sync with the camera, no TTL functionality though. You have to set the aperture manually on the camera corresponding to the Guide number of the flash. This trigger does not work very well with the Canon 430 Ex since the 430 has some problems with radio transmitters. I've successfully used this trigger with the Sony RX 100Mk2 and the Fuji as I have previously mentioned. Would this work with the Yongnuo, it probably will but I'm not sure. Then again Yongnuo has its own dedicated triggers so why would you want to use this set?

I'm also trying to decide if the Canon XS or XSI is right for me. I own the original 6.1mp Canon digital Rebel slr and am wondering if now is a good time to upgrade? I used to shoot primarily landscapes while traveling, but am doing more portraits now that I have kids. The Digic III processor definitely caught my attention, but I'm wondering how much of a difference in the cameras will I notice?

yes it was great. worked well with the rebel 3. don't know about the rebel xsi but it should work. if not just send it back. amazon is great that way.

I'm not really sure! If you put Canon Rebel XTi in the search part on amazon it might or should be listed under the remote shutter release for Canon, most of the time accessories will work for the dslr rebels. Hope this can help, I am just learning how to use my Canon Rebel T3i.
