    I'm selling a Canon Speedlite 550EX on eBay UK - it offers a range of TTL modes on all Canon EOS SLRs and DSLRs. Unfortunately it doesn't want to work with lenses shorter than 35mm, it makes a repeated grinding noise which I think means there's something wrong with the gearing inside the head. It doesn't give this problem if the diffusor is pulled out to extend coverage to 17mm. I'm not aware of any other problems, but since there's a fault which buyers may try to fix I'm not taking returns. See the full listing for specifications and photos.

    Starting price £2.99 plus P&P (£2.26 and up in the UK, more overseas)
    Ends Sunday May 31st 19.28 BST

    Also selling a Super Palar 35mm f2.8 lens with Canon FL breech lock mount (as FD but auto stopdown only, no open aperture metering.) Very slight dust otherwise working well.

    Starting price £2.99 plus P&P (£2.26 and up in the UK, more overseas)
    Ends Sunday May 31st 19.04 BST
