Canon Sunpak DF3000 Flash

Good luck. It seems terribly complicated but its not really.

I saw a youtube video where a guy showed and told why he used his E-TTL flash in manual mode, can't find it now, but it got me wondering if the YN560II will work with the YN565EX in manual mode, I think the YN 560II can be set up (settings) like the YN565EX. Manual will work for me, I don't plan on doing photography for money it's just a hobby, so I guess I don't need the camera talking to the flash units automatically and probably didn't really need the YN565EX to begin with.

The 565 is worth having for times when you want to do ETTL like birthday parties and that sort of thing. So it was still a good investment. The 560 is a value for a second flash if you want to work in manual mode. Unless you want one of your flashes to be in the hotshoe you still need a triggering method. Look at the yn rf603

Thanks, I found this setup the flash has a built in trans/reciever and in the other link could use the kit for two more flashes.

Since you have to buy a pair of the transcievers to have one on the camera, I dont know that I would pay any extra for having the reciever built in the to the flash. Just get the canon one, the actual model is irrelevent.

Thanks Gonzogolf, I have never played around with a better on camera flash before, so I took the camera with the Sunpack on it and went outside and took some snap shots and it's a whole lot better than the pop up and took some of the woods line at our property line and it sure made the trees show a lot more detail too.

Have a great day

Good luck.
