Knowing the date that flashguns first came out is also important as it tells you what they are Production dates and are not compatible with. As you saw on the last page there are some very pivotal dates which are important if you need certain facilities to work. Speedlite 90EX 2012 - Current Speedlite 220EX 2003 - 2009.

6 It can be quite confusing to know exactly when a flashgun came out as they tend to be Speedlite 270EX 2009 - 2011. around in the market for a much longer time than Camera bodies. Most flashguns stay on Speedlite 270EX II 2011 - Current the market for around about five years, although as you can see if you look at the macro Speedlite 320EX 2011 - 2017. flashguns, they have lasted between 14 and 16 years as current models. This does mean if you buy a flashgun quite late on within its life, that it can very quickly appear to be quite out Speedlite 380EX 1995 - 2000.

7 Of date if there is a sudden change in technology or communication within the market. It Speedlite 420EX 2000 - 2008. will not make a difference to the images that you are taking, but it could make a difference Speedlite 430EX 2005 - Current to where you set things or for example if using wireless flash, which system you're going to Speedlite 430EX II 2008 - Current be able to use. Speedlite 430EX-RT 2015 - Current One of the reasons why the flashgun stay current quite long time is down to the fact that Speedlite 470EX-AI 2018 - Current Canon is improving the technology to improve the flash system with almost every single Speedlite 550EX 1998 - 2004.

8 Model they bring out, and there's no point in updating flashguns just for the sake of it. Speedlite 580EX 2004 - 2007. Speedlite 580EX II 2007 - 2012. You may wonder why the flashguns change at all, if all the control is coming from the Camera body. However, there are things that change which enable flashguns to become better. One Speedlite 600EX-RT 2012 - 2016. of the biggest improvements we've seen over the last couple of decades, is the ability of the Speedlite 600EX II-RT 2016 - Current flashguns to fire shots off in sequence more rapidly.

9 The charging speed has got better and Speedlite EL-100 2018 - Current the capacitors in the flashgun now hold a bit more than is needed just for than a single flash. Macro Ring Lite MR-14EX 2000 - 2014. The way that the flashguns are laid out and are set has also changed. Although in my opinion Macro Ring Lite MR-14EX II 2014 - Current not always for the better. The new menu systems are more complex; however, it must be said the more menus were needed due to the new systems fitted onto the flashguns with the Macro Twin Lite MT-24EX 2001 - 2017.

10 Radio wireless flash system. Macro Twin Lite MT-26EX-RT 2017 - Current The biggest benefit, to me, has to be the integration of the flash menus into the Camera menu system. This allows a more simplified display and possibly most important a unification of the way that all the flashguns are set with displays looking identical regardless of which flashgun is fitted. That cannot be said for the way that you set the flashguns although the latest models are getting more uniform in their layout. Return to contents
