Will the 420 EX work on TTL with my 40D or do I need to go to the 420 EX II ?
I want to work up a macro rig using 2 TTL flashes. (I know Canon makes one, but at 700 bucks) I had a similar rig years ago with my Contax RTS and 2
TLA 20 flashes that worked great. To bad Canon doesn't make a small flash that will TTL with the latest digital cameras.

420EX will work fine. I don't think there is a 420EX II? Do you mean 430EX and 430EX II?

Speaking of what is with Canon and all the II's. Are they just not worthy of a new name yet?

The 420EX will work on the 40D. I have both. Since I got my 580EX-2, however, the 420 has been collecting dust.

There is no 420EX-2, I had to look up that 430-EX2, that's a new one on me.
