EOS 10D flash rcommendations

I have read a lot about the EOS3 and the 550EX flash being "designed for
each other". is that just a factor of modernity, and could I expect a 10D to
take full advantage of the 550EX's capabilities and vice versa?

The 550EX has been out for a few years, and I got mine as part of the deal when
I bought an EOS3 in 2000. I think there were some problems using the 550EX on
the D30 & D60. Thankfully these don't exist with the 10D. Simple to use
wireless ratio flash is a reality with two 550EXs and suitable cameras, and the
ST-E2 is a good accessory as well.. (Make sure you get the instruction manual
for the 550EX.)

Yes. They compliment each other perfectly.

I use the 550EX on its own, sometimes with a pair of 420EX slaves with
my 10D and it is an excellent combination.
