The Source: Canon Speedlite 270EX II for $149.99
The Source has the Canon Speedlite 270EX II for $149.99. Free store pick-up. This is a really good price for a value starter flash. This flash is the cheapest one in the Canon line-up that supports bounce -- the ability to tilt the flash head up to bounce the flash off the ceiling or through a diffuser. Unfortunately it does not support swivel, only tilt, but for $149 the value can't be beat. This flash retails for $154 USD from the US, so this deal is even better!
