Yongnuo YN-560

I think that was a safe bet for you Camiloo. Let us know how long it took to get there so we can better narrow down the choices.

Well I got my two finally, and it turned out that one is the old version, and one is the new. Not sure what difference there is apart from the metal foot.

I received mine yesterday (oredered 2), I ordered them from jiakgong on ebay, took 2 weeks to receive them, new ones with the metal foot. They were tested so it would be sure that they work, now I have to play the waiting game for my eneloops batteries and charger.

I also ordered RF602's with 3 receivers from yongnuo themselves on ebay, took about 1 week or so. I'm based in Europe, Belgium, shipping from HK goes fast.

Well... I ordered one... waiting for it to come now...

Just so those in this forum know, the YN560's do work with the new Cactus V5 triggers. I just got my V5s and tested them and they seem to work great so far. In case anyone was wondering!

I'm back from the little store I bought my flash from 2 months ago. (The store looks like a small room, FILLED with photography stuff from eBay (Phottix, Yongnuo, Meike, lights modifiers etc...)

The guy happily exchanged my broken unit for a brand new one, without arguing. So I now have a new Yn-560, with the metal foot

Finally I can get back to two lights setup

I just ordered with the $9 1-3 day shipping worth it?

That is who I got mine form.

Just wondering, has anyone had any trouble with the Yongnuo battery packs? I got 2 to go with my 560's, but they don't seem to be working.

^ i was just going to ask about which battery packs i should get for them. which ones did you get? could you provide a link? thanks!

Just ordered 4 days ago and it arrived today what a surprise since I didn't check the amazon tracking info! Wow this flash is huge and powerful! Best thing for under $100 for your camera! It totally kills my friends 430ex.

^^ As long as it last

I hope it does! -_- How much months did it last you?

2. About 300 pop. But I had no trouble replacing it, free of charge.

I'll say I got a defective unit in first, it helps trusting the brand

Good, I hope my little flash last for years!

Boy is this flash big compared to the YN-468. I got the new version with the metal foot as well, only bad thing is doesn't work with my Meike-RC7 I'll have to see if I can figure out why it doesn't work
