My photos improved dramatically over built in flash and I now have a great flash for a long time. **Q: How powerful is this flash...how far can you bounce the light? Could it bounce off the ceiling of a big fancy church?** A: It's a difficult question, Lacey. As with ALL light it's a matter of physics, really - and it all comes down to distances. The 580EX is quite a powerful flash, but it is still a flash. Dependant on the church, the distance to the ceiling, the reflectiveness of the surface it will bounce off some amount of light, but if it's enough for your requirements is another matter all together. With that it mind, it is possible to get various modifiers and by using different shooting techniques there is very little this flash can't help you achieve. And if you, as I, doesn't have the budget and the temperament for setting up a larger lighting kit, it's a powerful tool to add to your arsenal.Happy shootings,Thomas Roger **Q: Is the 580ex ii compatable with a rebel t2i?** A: In common with almost all Canon SLRs (the sole exception being the EOS 7D), wireless remote flash is only possible when using an external Speedlite 580EX II (or the now-discontinued 580EX) flash strobe, or the Speedlite Transmitter ST-E2, mounted on the camera. Canon's Speedlite 270EX, 430EX II, and 580EX IIIn short - yes it is. **Q: Compatible with T8i?** A: I don't see why it wouldn't work. It attaches to the hotshoe on the camera. ## Frequently Bought Together - Canon Speedlite 580EX II Flash - Flash Diffuser JJC Camera Flash Bounce Light Diffuser for Canon 580EX II Flash Speedlight-2 Packs --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/1153674-canon-speedlite-580ex-ii-flash-for-canon-eos-digital-slr](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/1153674-canon-speedlite-580ex-ii-flash-for-canon-eos-digital-slr) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-07-13*
