Here's a vote for the 580 II. Actually, it really only suits MY needs. I use a $5 PC cord to hook to the camera instead of the more expensive (not sure how much) Off-Shoe Cord, since I already had the flash anyway. But, alas, it is heavy, and quite a bit more expensive. Still, it's found it's home on my rig

Where did the $5 cord come from? I am after one

I bought it from a photographer buddy for $5.;) I know B&H sells them, you'd only need a 12 incher for the delta bracket.

Pity you can't buy Delta brackets in UK - B&H charge more for shipping than for the bracket!
