Guess what I got for my B-day?!?!?

Before my B-day dinner, my g/f took me out to the camera shop and got me a Canon 580ex II flash!!! (I was *VERY* shocked!)

I haven't had a chance to try it out yet, but I'm looking forward to giving it a go..

I know there is going to be a lot of trial and error with it. Anyone have any advice or know of any tutorials that may be helpful for getting started?

Try this one. Hope it helps.
