Camera Lens Question
So I picked this lens up from Best Buy yesterday
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Canon+-+...ens&cp=1&lp=16
I then bought the 430EX II flash. I noticed if I take rapid shots after the 2nd shot when snapping the third the camera locks up a little like it's processing, and then is fine, but when I look at the picture, it's a blur of a color.
Is that normal. I can give examples if needed. Was just taking pics of the cat with new lens and flash.

I havent tried the other lenses. I took the flash off and it went multiple times with no problems. When it stops after the 2nd shot it starts making a noise like its processing data. Then the lens opens up and i can continue taking shots.

what setting are you shooting on? the only problem that you would have with cheap battery's on the flash is that after 3-4 constant shots you would need to wait for it to recycle the power before shooting another shot. now if your waiting for the camera to process a picture before shooting next shot, it could be your sd card being to slow depending on what resolution you are shooting on. ex: m, l, l+raw, raw

It doesn't do this with just the lens and stock flash. I can take repeated shots with no problem. I tried with all the "Automatic" type settings such as portrait, landscape and so forth. But as soon as i attach the flash and try to shoot constantly this happens.
