Yes. I am reading that thread about YN622 as the other poster suggested.

They are great for the price, but there are nicer options available if you can spend a bit more. . Thanks. But for that kind of money ($300+), wouldn't ST-E3-RT makes more sense?

Edit : Yeah. I know. It wouldn't work even with 580EX II... The 622cs work just fine with my 580EXII and my YN568EXs. They are spectacular triggers (regardless of the price).

Some people have been happy to use the 622 for weddings etc, others moved on fairly quickly. If you're confident to deal with any issue quickly is probably no problem either way, but many people are not that technically minded, they just want things to work without having to worry about that.
