canon user. wanting to buy my 1st flash..am pondering between canon 430ii EX or yongnuo 560 (?). pls advise which should i get quality vs price factor? i will be using for general purpose and macro photography specifically.

YN560 is considered "decent" for its price... I think Nissin would be more "thoroughly tested" as they're in the 3rd party flash business longer than YongNuo...

If you're not gonna be "machine-gun-shooting" the flash away, I think it should be fine... but for macro purpose... you might want to get something else... or perhaps get a off-hotshoe cable or a radio trigger...

you might consider a used 430 EXII is now selling at around ~RM600... it's much more reliable & better build quality... but being used... depends on your luck on how "used" the flash is la~
