Is it possible I would be able to use my Nikon R1C1 Speed light Flash on this lens? I was thinking of buying the T3i and this lens.

Sorry, I can't give you a definitive answer. It partly depends on what you are photographing and at what magnification. At high magnification the lens is very close to the subject ( a centimeter or two) and the lens body might interfere with flash reaching the subject. I have shot only plant parts in natural light, and that works well.

Heather, the flash I rec'd does not fit my camera. Unfortunately, I was ill when I first rec'd it, and the time frame for returning items had run out when I tried to use it on my Cannon Rebel t-3. I would hope that you would get the light that you need. Take advantage of the lighting in the restaurant. Best of luck. Kathleen M. on March 18th.

Yes, compatible. I have both a 60D and a T3i and have no issues with this flash. Instructions aren't very good but you can set the camera options for staggering your flash curtain if that's what you are referring to. I've had 3 flashes, returned every one of them and have now had this for over a year and it's still kicking. Really like this flash for the price. Hope this helps.

I have the T2i and it works perfect,once you screw on the adapter and place the flash on the lense.

I use Nikon Speedlight Flash only and it works just fine. I like this mount, it is very solid

Im not a photograpy guru. But I use mine with a nikon 35 mm f/1.8 dx. Change to aperture priority and adjust the ISO. I take pics in the house all the time. The flash doesnt go off and the pics are really good. The house is kind of dark. Havent tried in wedding or convention setting. I love this camera. You just need to buy the right lens for the applications you want

Although I can't say for sure (I have the T3 and not the T3i), I'm 99% sure it will be fine - the design of the flash and hot shoe of the T3 and the T3i is identical. If you'd like take a look at this site for a comparison:T3 design:http://www.imaging-resource.com/PRODS/T3/T3FLASH.HTMAnd the T3i:http://www.imaging-resource.com/PRODS/T3I/T3IFLASH.HTMSorry I can't be more help! If you're on the fence, id say go for it - this thing is really incredible and has made a huge difference for my pictures...

From a t2i up to the t5i this lens would work great if your camera can take a RAW picture. I've never heard of an sl1 but if it has a detachable lens then you could always upgrade the camera body later. The lens will work with any canon camera.

I use the R1 wireless system from Nikon on my 200mm Micro-Nikkor. The pop up flash on the camera functions as the commander to trigger 4 SB-R200 (NIkon) flash units attached to the adaptor ring at the end of the lens. When more light is needed, I hand hold my SB-910 (Nikon speedlight) near the subject in remote mode. The pop-up flash will remotely trigger the SB-910 as well. f16 on the 200 seems to get me the best results, but that requires a lot of light.

As this is an automatic flash, it should work automatically when mounted properly onto your Canon Rebel T3i. Keep in mind, this is not an intelligent TTL dedicated flash and will not adjust to your environmental lighting conditions.

I'd suggest you use what you have before getting additional gear! I own this lens and I have not needed any ring flash. the Canon flash/lineup set low would all suffice. Or even a light reflector would work as well. As my grandmother would say" Finish what you have on your plate first, before adding something else,!

I have a Canon 5d mark 2 and a Canon 7d and it works great on both of them. I would say it works on the T3i because it's still a canon flash and hot shoe system.

This will work with Cannon, but metering modes will not work as it's not a real Speedlite. You have to adjust flash output, F stop and shutter speed unlike with a real Speedlite that does it for you. The T3i is just better then a T2i, same hot shoe.

Yes Annette, i have a Canon T5i and the flash works fine. Also, this flash should work fine with T2i, T3i, T4i, 60D, ...

Not sure about the t1i. .. but I have the t3i and it works fine because it fits the lens. ..I have 2 lenses and it works fine with both. .. hope this helps. :)

I just bought this for my D80. It works perfectly fine. If you zoom in to the max then the built-in flash will cast a shadow (the lens itself is in the way) because you are so close to the object, in that case you need external lighting. No other 'issues' (this will happen regardless of what macrolens you use, so it isnt really an issue) that I have seen, great lens.
