I need an external auto flash for my Canon 70D, would this one work? Any suggestions appreciated!

If you select the canon version it will work. I have used these with several canon DSLRs with TTL. They've worked flawlessly for me.

Hi, I all suggested you use only Nikon flashes, I buyed a Vivitar because the price bud ain't worked, so I pay double.

This did work with my Canon 7D and still does with Canon 6D. I would recommend getting a trigger that works with AA batteries. On the +ve it has really good range and lasts for a long time.

it will work but it will not function as an 'auto' flash. everything must be done manually.

Hi there -- this may be irrelevant, but they're asking me to communicate. I never used Canon, bought this slave to enable me to use auxiliary flash with a Fuji 3D camera. The idea is this: Most today's hi-tech flashes emit a series of light impulses to pre-evaluate the scene, the pop responsible for actual exposure (when the shutter opens) being the last one. To use an external slave flash you need either turn off all camera's pre-flashes (switch it to 'dumb' mode -- impossible with my Fuji) or use a slave that will ignore pre-flashes, such as this unit. That's why I bought it and it works for me. Try to read the manual for your Canon and see what your options are. It always helps to have a clear understanding what goes on. Cheers! M.B.

I don't have a 70d but it works very well with my other canon cameras. Af assist is the best, with very pleasing light and ttl works so good it is my first choice of three flashes that I own

There is no hot shoe for an external flash so im going to say probably not unless there is a way to do it via usb which I doubt because the usb seems to be data only. But the built-in flash is very good

Yes, I used it on a Canon 40D originally, and now I use it on a Canon 7D and I don't have any problems with it at all, and they haven't changed anything as far as the flash connections.

I used on Nikon D610 & D90 both working very well, also I used for off camera flash nikon sb 28, sunpak 433af and 433d, but not for TTL just manual setting. Now old flashes are very cheap if you know how to use it will come out great pictures.

hi,it should work.please make sure you have fresh batteries and that the flash is making contact with the camera correctly.

If your built-in flash is popping up, then you can use your speedlite flash externally, off the camera. Most digital cameras will have settings in which you select how you want to use your flash, such as if you want to use a remote flash - read thru your owner's manual to get the exact info for your camera. What kind of camera do you have? I bought this speedlite for my Pentax and it works great - I like to use it remotely, off the camera, with a diffuser.

The flash will work fully automatic and manual for the 450D. There is a list of the Canon bodies it is compatible with under the flash name.

Yes,this have a built-in good quality flash.But Using external flash = much better result.

I don't know about that but this flash is fully manual. It will not monitor anything thru your camera and mine stopped working the 2nd time I turned it on. I would not recommend it. If you want a TTL ring flash that is fully automatic you will have to go for the Canon ring flash, about $500.

check out the manual, its doing both (charging flash and writing cached buffer on the memory), meaning i may well need an external (ohh gooding!!!! more stuff for my camera) so for such a case, what external flash unit would you recommend, cause i've been looking at the at different ones, and the one that fits my needs the best according to what i've seen is the 430EX II by canon, what your insight is it to much to little?

Being a Speedlite it will fire on "external flash" mode if set to Auto Exposure. However, as small and convenient the 90EX would not be much of an improvement compared with the built-in flash. Therefore I'd suggest to get at least the Speedlite 270EXII or if more flash light range (with swivel) is needed, then get the 430EXII. Both of these have much faster "cycle" times than the 90EX. Obviously, their price is their main drawback.

Nice camera! Yes, it will work. I find in most situations it works best in constant on rather than in flash mode.

As this is an automatic flash, it should work automatically when mounted properly onto your Canon Rebel T3i. Keep in mind, this is not an intelligent TTL dedicated flash and will not adjust to your environmental lighting conditions.
