As far as I'm aware, the only difference is that the 420 head swivels as well as tilts. The 380 only tilts. For me, tilting is enough

I just found this table, which may help.

I note the GN of the 380ex is 38m, whereas the 420ex GN is 42m.
I also note the 380ex is discontinued.

Regards
Bruce

Sorry.
I'd forget my head if it wasn't screwed on.
