Dropped a t3i with the 50mm 1.4 attached and now it wont focus closer than 1.5M! The camera itself is fine, but the lens has the same problem in auto and manual modes. Anything worth trying on the home repair front before I send it in?

I'm looking for a starter flash to pair with my t3i kit and 50 1.4 and maybe as a fill with a telephoto if a flash has that kind of reach (I see people with bigmas and flashes taking pictures of nesting birds in harsh sunlight?). I had settled on getting an affordable Yongnuo but I'm having trouble choosing between the 560-III, the 565-II, and the 568 II. I almost always shoot on full manual, and know nothing about ettl etc. - does anyone know what the best fit would be?

Now that the title of the gear thread says to hail Satan instead of not to buy a UV filter, look what happens.

Would it be more appropriate to post my flash question there?
