G5 + 420EX + WC-DC58N experiences

[QuaoarOne]

I have just bought the external flash 420EX for my G5.

I own all ready the wide convertor WC-DC58N which I use often.

Does someone have experience with this combination of equipment?

Thanks anyway for you help:)

Try being more specific in terms of what type of photo you are taking as the three in combination allow for such a large myriad of options and capabalities.



In any case, why not tell us about yours

ok....you are right. here is mine experience (so far)

The only poor thing about this combination is that the 420EX can't see that I installed the wide convertor. The 420EX thinks that the position of the lens is still at 7.2mm instead of 7.2mm x 0.7. It causes dark spots in the corner of the pictures.

The solution is to mount the Omni bounce on the flash unit and I must say that the dark spots are gone but it is not the perfect solution.

Sometimes I can't understand if Canon say the G5 is a "system" camera.
