I am looking for a flash for my newly purchased xsi. What are the biggest difference between these two flashes? The 430 is about $100 more in price and want to see what the extra $100 gets you.

The 430 is superior in pretty much every way. Has a tilting and swivelling head for bounce flash, more power, faster recharging time...

Compare yourself - 430ex (http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/controller?act=ModelInfoAct&tabact=SupportDetailTabAct&fcategoryid=217&modelid=11923#ModelTechSpecsAct) versus the 270ex (http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/controller?act=ModelInfoAct&tabact=SupportDetailTabAct&fcategoryid=217&modelid=18386#ModelTechSpecsAct)
