Is rear curtain sync with the 285hv possible with a 20D or will I need to get an e-ttl flash to do so? Just curious.

An effective rear curtain sync would be possible with the 285hv if you use a Pocket Wizard MultiMax to trigger it or if you optically slaved it to an ETTL compatible flash mounted on the camera and operated in manual mode.
