I bought a PIXMA MG5620 almost exactly two years ago. It worked fine, until it didn't all of a sudden a couple of weeks ago. Printer Support staff could not really diagnose the problem from error code B203, gave me some BS busywork to try and fix i...

Thanks to those who helped me understand flash in a previous thread. I've been leaning toward the 430ex as a sort of "starter" flash on my Rebel T2i. When I went to the camera store, the 430 comes with a $100 rebate that drops the price to around $...

Thanks, Tim. Okay, your last response did me in. I could feel the same deer-in-the-headlights panic wellling up inside that I used to experience in HS math class (okay, junior high too). It seems that, if I were doing macro photography (a new cha...

Whew,, thanks for such a detailed reply. I think I understood most of it although I got cross-eyed at all the math stuff. The Canon shop of course has info on the various flashes but of course they are all of the extolling-the-virtues of each one...
