New 430EX II flash. Advice wanted please

[burd]

I just got a 430EX II and i love it but i cant find any online tutorials/help videos or anything to help me use/master it and understand each function in detail


i read the manual but it its not that useful to be honest.


If anyone knows where i can find any useful online website/videos or anything similar that would be great!


Thanks

As far as using the 430EX specifically, I'm sure a few of our regulars would be glad to help. However, if you'd like a more general overview of using off-camera flash, then I'd suggest this.

Would you be willing to ask us individual questions?

I don't use that particular flash, but many of the setting on mine are probably very similar. If you were more specific I might be able to help some.

I don't know where you have tried to look or what you searched with, but there are all kinds of video tutorial available online


Here are a bunch using Google for both the 430 EX and 580 EX


And just for the 430 EX Flash.

I have the 430EX II speed light. I found the web site speedliting.com very helpful. It was a recommendation from this forum. You could try Canon's own Digital learning center. They have great tips and inside info frequently.
