Flash Gun with Slave (for infra red transmitter/trigger?) for Canon 350D EOS digital camera?

I would like to know the most economical flashgun for use with the Canon 350D EOS digital slr (that will not screw up the camera!) Thanks for your advice!!

If you’re talking about simple slave flash I use two of them. They don’t use infra red though – they’re tripped off the on board flash on my
Rebel XS and they work just fine. Actually I wouldn’t see a need for an infra red trigger unless you’re shooting with a slave off camera and not using your on board or external flash. That’s a neat approach and
you may be able to do some research here.
