It's actually in better condition than I expected! The previous 1dmkII that I contemplated buying before was used much heavier, and sold double the price I payed for this gem. :D
I just have to wait another week for my paycheck to come in ;)

You lucky SOAB, I paid 560 and I'll probably have to replace the shutter within the next 10,000 clicks

Today I got my 5D mkii, 17-40L, Sigma 70-200 f2.8 and a Crumpler Industry Disgrace strap.
I can't wait to try them all out.

Leaf shutters. Yes, please. (they allow flash sync to the max shutter speed)

Well, I guess you COULD make leaf shutters an interchangeable lens thing...would be an interesting idea on digital...

I'd love to get one, but there's just no way I can justify over £300 for a flash. Hardware wise there's not much over any other old flash except for some circuitry for all the TTL shiz, it certainly doesn't cost £160 more to make than a 430 so how they can justify the price hike I don't know. Hell even that's far too much at £180.

what about the slave controller...full weather sealing...the capacitors and PCB's are going to be more expensive to handle more power...bigger screen...

shall I go on?

Would the EF spec allow that sort of technology?

I have noooooooo idea...I'm just talking ridiculously hypothetically here haha...

But...I can't see why not...the technology was around decades ago...I don't see how it would be any different w/ interchangeable lenses...I should look into this and see if they had leaf shutters with interchangeable lenses back in the day...

Seriously? Over here in England the cheapest I've managed to find one for was just under £600, or about $950. $500 is just over £300 which is about what I paid for my 20D.

Okay, that's nearly enough to justify the 430 costing over £100 more than something like a Yn-468. But, there's no way the 580 should cost so much more than the 430 unless it has a titanium frame with carbon fibre reinforced plastic, the real difference between them is probably something like £50 in parts if that.

Probably not, it's not designed with leaf shutter in mind. There are actually a lot of leaf shuttered removable lenses, especially in medium format and up (take the Leica S2 for example, it has both). You could easily adapt a leaf shuttered lens to the EF mount and then trip the shutter via the PC sync port (not sure if they can do this standard or if it'd require some DIY work, but it could be done), however you'd have to control the shutter speed manually on the lens.
