Yep, the hardest part is always the anticipation! Congrats with your new gift! The 430 is a very capable performer. Next, google "a better bounce card" and watch the videos... I found this to have made a very nice improvement to my own photography as I find direct flash to be very harsh! The best part of this web site is that the modifications don't cost anything!

Congrats, IMO an external flash is 'accessory #1' for any camera , you have just multiplied your options to get a decent exposed shot

...you write it comes with 'the flip/rotating bracket' ?? which one ??

In order to understand what you have bought, this site has the answers to ALL your questions (but it takes a good read to find them, although worth the trouble) and to prepare for the next phase (off-camera external flash ) go here

...€0.02...

Kindest regards!
