Don't overlook the Sigma flashes, they give you a lot more bang for the buck. I have the EF500 DG Super II and it was done wonders for me, has full manual controls and more power than a 430EX.

The Sigma isn't a replacement for a 580 Canon, but I found it easily trumps the 430 Canon.

I would go for a used 85mm f/1.8 and 430EX.

That would be tough to do without kicking in a few extra bucks, but that is not a bad idea at all.
