Hi, I recently purchased a canon 10D. I already had 2 550ex flashes. My
question is this: Will I be better served buying a ST-E2 as a master for
both flashes? Or should I spend $150.00 more and buy another 550? Money IS
an object, but, if using a 550 as a master, and also getting the added
flexibility with the additional strobe, it seems it may be more sensible
coughing up the extra $$$ for the 3rd 550.
 Can anybody tell me the advantages of having the ST-E2, as opposed to using
a 3rd 550 as a master?
 Again, thanks for your help. Oh! and BTW, if any of you know of a college
aged, digital wiz kid (I'm 48YO), hence the word "kid", I need a tutor for
photo shop and could use some help learning digital photography in general.
I'm willing to pay, say $50.00 for 4 hours of instruction. I'm in Orange
County, Southern California. I'm planning to take a semester of community
college, but I need to get started ASAP. Thanks, Mike
