Help me decide: 270EXII vs 90EX

If portability is a must then get the 270ex ii.

You'd be nuts to buy a 90ex -too weak, and optical/IR is a no-go. Line of sight trigerring is totally unreliable. Get RF triggers.

Thanks for the info power and line of sight triggering.  This makes the decision easier

Sorry again, in final, get the 270"ex ii, it is ok on camera for what you'll be using it for rather than the 430. If you really wan to attempt off camera, get some yongnuo rf603 or cactus v5 triggers
