This little baby has become a loyal companion in my camera bag with guide number 27.
It always comes back to need a fill-in flash in the situation.
For indoors anyway if you do not want to play with the depth of field, but also in outdoor portraits
I do the 270EX II has become a little more helpful partner, because my two Canon DSLR's innately no
Pop-up flash donated scored.
When the camera a higher ISO setting (almost) free of noise tolerate then can the small
compact and achieve very good results especially lightweight flash unit.
Communication with my cameras (1DMKIV - 5DMKIII and PowerShot G12) is properly and well.
The remote control and slave functions are very useful features of the 2 little ones.
The HSS-way (off-camera flash) is very interesting and it works just as well as its big brother.
The flash is compared to the 430 / 580er neither top heavy nor interfere with the camera.
Small drawback is that the flash head can be tilted not in the vertical position.
Bin However soswieso an advocate from the classic 3: 2 landscape.
The Canon donated to Aufbewährungssäckchen nylon also defies description.
But it is not included in the evaluation here .... has something to do with the flash even nix.
Who the size, the weight and the relatively small additional price does not bother, should the Speedlite 430EX II - this can be swiveled in all directions
and also is still at least a third more than the 270EX II.
Even I use this 430er not flash, but the Speedlite 580EX II.
In landscape mode, the Small does not allow "indirect-over-the-ceiling" flash the normal, but it can also be in addition to
Zoom position bring, however, this is only possible manually.
This can also be in a hall flash photography up to 15 meters with an ISO 1000 setting well done.
(DSLR as indicated above with EF 70-200 / 2.8L II IS)
Fed the 270EX II with 2 pcs. AA batteries (used Eneloops).
Hold loosely extended appreciably for 80-100 lightning to the charging time.
Conclusion:
A truly first-class small, lightweight and powerful flash device that with the EOS cameras
excellent harmony and perfectly adequate for smaller events, celebrations and for vacation.
The price is not cheap (but what is cheap ?? Canon), for high quality and clean.
Strong buy recommendation on my part.
