Any specific reason that you would prefer Metz & auto mode over canon's ETTL.



I am just trying to make my1st set of strobes & have bought 580EXII as of now & have been experimenting with borrowed 580ex from a friend.



I have 2 choices either use ETTL & stick with canon or go vivitar 285HV/metz in auto mode.



Mainly I would be using this for studio still life, shooting interiors & location portraits. The best thing about ETTL with my 40D is that I can control all A:B:C via camera menu without walking up to the lights.
