Good for you :)

Folks go on and on about this lens and that lens, and the difference between them is usually next to nothing. But get a decent flash (or three :D ) and it opens up a completely new area of photography.
 
My last experience of flash was with a little bulb flash that had a reflector that opened like a fan. I had to calculate the aperture using the guide number for every shot.

I came back to photography about 3 years ago and bought a 580 EX MkII about 18 months ago. I still can't used to all the things it does.

Truly awesome
 
it is amazing, got one a few months back - really nice to use, love bouncing!
