Update: Canon Speedlite 430EX III-RT is a Master Flash [in Radio Mode]

A correction was made to the Canon Speedlite 430EX III-RT press release after we published it this morning. The following line:

"Featuring enhanced functionality and operability over its predecessor (the Canon Speedlite 430EX II), the new Canon Speedlite 430EX III-RT features wireless flash shooting via optical or radio transmission (similar to the Canon Speedlite 600EX-RT but slave function only), now with shorter recycling time and quicker firing."
...has been corrected to now read:
"Featuring enhanced functionality and operability over its predecessor (the Canon Speedlite 430EX II), the new Canon Speedlite 430EX III-RT features wireless flash shooting via optical or radio transmission (similar to the Canon Speedlite 600EX-RT with master and slave functions in radio mode but slave function only in optical transmission), now with shorter recycling time and quicker firing."
That's right folks! The 430EX-III RT can actually act as a master flash in radio triggering mode. That's an extremely welcomed feature for those who want the benefits of radio triggering at a lower price point.
