best buy canon t1i camera image
askjdjdkdj
I am buying a Canon Rebel t1i "brand new, never opened" for much cheaper than retail price. How can I tell if the camera has been refurbished and this is why it is being sold cheaper? Is there some kind of website where I can input the number on the box and it will tell me the history? Or somewhere to call??
THANK YOU!

Sounds like the "horse has already left the barn" on this one. But you might try calling Canon with the model number and serial number and find out if they will repair the camera in the future (you will pay for it-of course) if needed. Some manufacturers/importers WILL NOT repair "gray market merchandise if it happens to be gray market, no matter what. Then you would have to find a independent repair person.

What is a good external flash for canon t1i?
Her
I just bought my first DSLR- a canon t1i. I like it so far, but I hate flashes on canons, they are a bright white that washes out whatever I am shooting. I try to refrain from flash usage if I can help it but there are certain times that it is just needed, especially with how dimly lit my house is. Are there any better external flashes that i can use that wouldnt give such a white out effect?
Answer
Best thing you can do is to buy an external flash that you can swivel the head of. This will allow you to bounce the light off of another surface and illuminating the subject. Your subjects usually get washed out from direct flash, which can be helped with diffusers. There are lots of flashes out there that will do this. For the T1i you need to look for a flash that uses TTL to meter the flash. This will ensure your camera, flash and lens all "talk" to each other to give you great results.
I recommend the Canon 430 EXII. However there are several offbrand flashes that will do just as well.
However the 430 EXII can be controlled in the menus of the T1i making it much easier to adjust the custom functions of the flash. You won't even have to touch the controls on the flash (most of the time)
