PhotoBert CheatSheet for the Canon Speedlight 580EXII
This Photobert CheatSheet for Canon Speedlight 580EXII is laminated, waterproof and very sharp and clear. It's like having the manual on a card - but better! Almost everything in the Canon manual is on this one card.
This CheatSheet is an "easy to take with you", invaluable quick reference. It's printed on both sides of a full-sheet of paper that's laminated with a heavy 10-mil laminate and is folded in thirds. When folded it's about 4.5 x 7.75" so it stores easily.

This reference sheet contains a lot of information on a heavily laminated card. The only disappointment I had was it is quite large (7 3/4" x 4 3/4") and the type is quite small for my old eyes. It would be much more useful if the type was a tad larger and bolder, and the card was in a folded format so it would fit in the flash case.

Comments about PhotoBert CheatSheet for the Canon Speedlight 580EXII:
Useful information but presented in a format that is next to impossible to read. If you buy it, the next thing is to take it to a printer and increase the image size.. which then defeats the purpose of the small item.
