 Canon Speedlite 270EX flash unit : Canon announces the launch of the entry level Speedlite 270EX, an enhanced flash unit designed for Canon EOS and PowerShot digital camera users. Replacing the popular Canon Speedlite 220EX, the Speedlite 270 EX is aimed at digital photographers wanting to expand their flash photography beyond the built in flash and those who want a small: pocketable flash unit to complement their Canon EOS-1D or EOS 5D camera series. The new compact Canon Speedlite 270EX flash unit builds on the success of its predecessor, with more flash power than usual for its class and size.

The new Canon Speedlite 270EX flash includes a host of new features not available with a built-in flash that push the boundaries for the entry level flash market. These include the addition of a zoom head, ensuring efficient light distribution and bounce flash head, enabling light from the flash to bounce off a ceiling to produce pictures with more flattering lighting with softer tones and depth. Improved circuitry offers near silent recharging and enables similar recharging times as its predecessor, despite being powered by just 2 AA batteries.
Canon 270EX Speedlight features
• Flash Zoom head & bounce flash head
• Manual flash output (settable via camera menus)
• Speedlite controllable with compatible camera's menu
• High power flash with a maximum guide number 27 meter
• Fast, silent recycle times
