Watching these with interest.

If they are more robust than the pixel kings, I may be considering an upgrade...

I received clarification from Yongnuo when I questioned the use of the phrase “pass-through” in their eBay listings.

• A flash can be mounted on the on-camera transmitter’s hotshoe. It will act as far as possible like a camera-mounted flash. The hotshoe is not a “remote”.
• The hotshoe is fully controlled by the YN-622C.
• A major limitation is that the Master/Slave capabilities of the flash are disabled. This means that it is not possible to use both Canon’s light-pulse control system and the 622’s radio system. (Just like the 600EX-RT which can be either radio or light-pulse, but not both simultaneously.) With the low price of the 622’s, there is no need to avoid the cost of a few more units.
• The transmitter-mounted flash will not respond to the camera menu’s manual zoom settings. This allows the zoom settings to be made independently of the other flashes. Auto-zoom still works if it is set on the flash.
• The flash will be in Group A.

that is the exact reason im getting them. on camera in ETTL, triggering other flashes in manual...that and ETTL ratio's

I'm wondering how many people are gonna pick up the 560EX's now just for this exact reason...

The instruction manual, though, is in Chinese.

[EmaginePixel]

Here's the manual in English. Probably e-translated.
