Idiots Guide to flash (particularly 580 EXII)

[Dredd123]

Hi,

I've just splashed out on a 580 EXII flash gun hoping to learn about all aspects of flash. Unfortunately, the contents of the manual are not sinking in (and if I'm honest are a bit like double dutch) therefore I was wondering if there is an idiots guide to flash anywhere, if possible with Canon flashguns in mind, specifically the 580 EXII).

Cheers,
Dave.
