p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Issues with a 580EX MarkII


I have one that was doing weird things one night at a shoot, and now wont fire. It turns on and looks like it will be fine, but no strobe happens. The first night it wasn't firing each time, and when it did it was noticeably lower power than the other light at the same power across the stage.

I was hoping for some trouble shooting advice before I look for service somewhere. Couldnt have happened at a worse time, I need the light and the money to replace it isn't here....

Is Canon my best bet to have it serviced?

it could be a loose hotshoe; the flash would go from Ettl to ttl. I had the same issue with my 580ex2, which is why I now shoot with only the 580 classic
