They don't list the speedlite 430EX as a Compatible model for the wireless Cactus trigger, the 420EX is though..
Typo?

PS: Just went through your Flickr 70-200mm album, did you get the IS model? We seem to have the same tastes in camera gears  Actually no, I've got the non-IS. It's mainly used for sports photography..so I didn't really need the IS version. Canon 1D mark III | Canon S95 | Sigma 50 1.4 | 17-40L | 135L | 70-200 2.8L

I am thinking of getting the IS model but I'm not sure whether its really needed or not. Keegan.

I am thinking of getting the IS model but I'm not sure whether its really needed or not. I've heard the IS version is slightly less sharp. But I don't think you'd really notice this. If you have the cash..go for the IS version! I sometimes wish I had IS on mine, but on the other hand I'm a student (saved a lot by buying an used non-IS model) and mainly use it for sports (IS is barely used for this purpose).
