Canon Speedlite 270EX II
Canon Speedlite 270EX II is a compact Canon E-TTL II speedlight with a guide number of 27. It sits near the bottom of Canon’s flash range, prioritising portability over power, with a small head that tilts for bounce work but does not swivel. It supports Canon optical wireless slave operation and high-speed sync on compatible Canon bodies, making it useful as a lightweight fill flash or off-camera accent rather than a primary event flash. Power comes from four AA batteries, and the flash uses a simple, travel-friendly body that is easy to carry on smaller EOS cameras. In real use, it suits casual portraits, indoor family shots and backup flash duties, but the limited output means it is best at close distances or in combination with higher ambient light. Used buyers should check the battery compartment for corrosion, the contact shoe and locking foot for wear, the bounce mechanism for smooth movement, and that the flash fires consistently at different power levels. Also confirm wireless slave triggering works with the intended Canon system and inspect the white diffuser panel and external body for cracks or heavy wear.
