I have a YN 467 Ettl Speedlight and a Rebel XS camera.
I am working fine with the wireless mode with the RF-602.
If I use this Off Camera Shoe cord http://cgi.ebay.co.uk …ts_JN&hash=item​1c17571978 (external link) will my flashgun and camera work in ETTL mode? I would like to know this so if Iam working outside I don`t have to go manual with my flash and make many test shots to set my exposure.

It should work just like it was attached directly to the camera.

off brand cords work fine with canon flashes, and vice versa. i've used the genuine canon, yongnuo, and cheetah cables... they all function the same.

The cord should give you the same functions you have if the flash were attached directly to the hot shoe. Brand of flash or cord won't matter as long as the cord is an ETTL cord for Canon cameras.
