p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · 580EX II Officially Discontinued


I think we all knew the 600EX-RT would replace the 580EX II in Canon's Speedlite line-up, but often these 'discontinued' item remain available as 'old stock' for quite a while before they are officially dismissed. However, I was just checking the Canon USA website to look at one of the 580EX II's custom functions and noticed that it's been relegated to the 'vintage & obsolete' page and all the old-stock appears to be depleted from many of the retailers. The ST-E2 remains (for now) on the active page.

Shessh, that ST-E2 seems to live on forever. I bought one in 1998 with an EOS 3. The 3 is long gone but the ST-E2 still gets used once in a while.

Hope the price on 580s continue to drop. I would like a few more. They suit me just fine.

I think "discontinued" models are still shipped and sold for years

Let me know if you need one used 2-3 times, I wish to replace mine with 600.

Noticed they don't even show up on the 5DMKIII user manual in the accessories section.
