OP?:think:

 

[Odyssey-Boy]

Any idea what is the different btw T-2204X and T-2205X?

$370 is with GST?

The difference is the number of sections of the legs.

T-2204X
- Carbon Fibre
- Series 2 legs
- Retractable Spikes
- Bundled w/ G-20 Ball Head
- 4 sections, 3 knobs, thus last section of legs is thicker.

T-2205X
- Carbon Fibre
-Series 2 legs
-Retractable Spikes
-Bundled w/G-20 Ball Head
- 5 sections, 4 knobs, thus last section is thinner.

If you don't mind waiting, can try getting from eBay. The cheapest is about S$ 5.60.

 

[compgen]

You are welcome.

BTW you got for S$370 with GST? OR S$370 is before GST?

I bought it at $370 with GST. Basically the price tags quoted in TK Foto are ALL inclusive of GST. That's one thing which I like about them, also their service, look for James, the young chap, he has quite a good public relation.

for the price of the 580ex II, why not get a Nissin Di866 and a Di622 ?? sounds better.

Initially was considering that Nissin Di866 and Di622 too. However when I went Canon the other time, was told that Canon Flash will constantly "sync" with the body itself and adjust accordingly. That is not the case for 3rd. Anyway that y i m looking for a 2nd hand one to test out.

U r using Nissin Di622, how is your review?

 

[kulpix]

550d camera and I have an SB600 flash, is there any adapter so that I can use the flash on my 550d? or better sell it and just buy a canon/nissin flash?
