Hi guys, now that the 430 EX II is on rebate, I'm tempted to sell my METZ 44-1 and get a Canon for not so much more money (about 70-100$ more)
What do you think?

Does the Canon offer any functionality over the Metz that you really want to have? If so, you might want to try and weigh the pros and cons of the added functionality. Is it worth the upgrade?

I went with Yonguo's equivalent of the 580EX II, for less than the 430EX II is selling for refurbished, and I'm quite happy with that decision .

My only gripe about the METZ is that it sometimes does not measure correctly and I end up with underexposed or overexposed shots. It seems that the TTL just seises to work until restart. It also does something very odd sometimes - it just starts firing strobes like crazy and the zoom mechanism goes from back to front repeatedly. I'm going to bring it for warranty repair first though. I don't know about functionality - I think it should work better without hickups.
