Hey guys I am in the process of building on my camera collection and I have a question.

I am an amateur photographer that is starting to get more interested in photography. I recently purchased a Canon Xti with the kit lens. I am looking at upgrading to either the 18-55 IS lens or the 430EX Speedlite.

I hear pros and cons for both. the IS system should help in capturing crisper photos with less light and wothout a tripod and the flash will certainly give me better lighting in dark or night shots.

What do you think I should get first???

Thanks!
