Anyway, gear malfunctions are one thing... but that wasn't the point of my post. You got a bad piece of gear? Replace it. I've had gear fail a number of times, and you just send the thing in to Canon or Nikon and they send you back a working part in 1 week. Gear failure is guaranteed, that's why you bring 2 bodies... 2 lenses... 2 flashes... a week's worth of batteries, and 4-6 32gb CF cards. As long as you've got redundancy, you're covered.

I am not as rich as you. I only have three Canons and three of these flash units and it does not matter which combination I use. Trust me. It isn't like I haven't gone running to a shop to buy a replacement unit think this one must be bad. I remember testing a new one at the store and having it do the same thing.
This is a design issue. Believe me, I have three of everything, including batteries and chargers . . . .well, only two zooms and two sigmas, but I have three of the standards.
Will the camera do things I have not mastered, I am positive. My phone does things I never looked at. I will probably replace them before I learn all its functions.
