#ExternalFlash

2023-07-08

Anyone have experience repairing Canon flashes? I fried the bulb last year and was hoping I could just swap in a new one. But after taking it apart the soldering looks a little beyond my skill level. Also read that one should discharge the capacitor, a word that I know but I'm not sure how one does that. It's a 600EX-RT. Ten years old. Alternatively, can anyone suggest a replacement, ideally one that accepts feed from an external battery pack? Because I have a birthday next week and I've been good. #photography #camera #repair #electronics #ExternalFlash #flash #canon
