What are the differences between this flash and the Yongnuo YN-565EX ETTL Speedlite Flash for Nikon? Is there one that works better? Have a D90.

I have used the 468. It is great. Works wonderfully on my d80 and d7000. I have not used the 565. But I would by th 468 again in a heart beat.

Google is the avenue. Did google to look for a reasonably price flash nearly close to NikonSB900 Flash in performance and I found Meike's. Hence Google can take to also for Instruction Manuals for Meike 900 Flash. Hope this helps you.

After a tough learning curve I have learned this does 'work' with the T2i, depending on your definition of work. This model is manual only, you have to adjust the settings manually, and the camera does not recognize it in the flash control settings. The yonguno YN568EX II has the E-TTL features. I recommend the book 'Speedliter's Handbook' by Syl Arena to explain the complicated world of canon speedlites, it's a plain english guide and is answering all my questions about canon speedlites. Note: it is canon specific.

Hi Jeffrey, I use my Bower SFD728N Automatic TTL Flash for Nikon i-TTL for a Nikon D60. It does the job for the price anyway but don't expect too much out of it, i.e. doesn't look tough enough to be used for long and extended periods of time. I am happy with the flash for what I use it for.

I have two of theses flashes and i use my SB 900 to trigger then. These units have specific modes - one for Nikon and one for Cannon. You just need to make sure you are in the Nikon mode and you should be good to go.

It's for Nikon. Search reviews before you buy to check compatibility with D90. Be prepared to test it when you get it to ensure proper TTL function with your camera (I returned two that wouldn't work on my D5100, but worked on D50, such a shame).

I have the 5Diii and the version II of this flash unit (YN-565EXII) and there are no compatibility issues. I can control the flash from the camera menu both on-camera and off-camera using the YN622C flash triggers. I believe the only difference between the original 565EX and the 565EXII is the LCD layout. Yongnuo says they function the same. In any case, I would get the version II - it will work with your 5diii.

i use it for my nikon sb800 & meike mk900 with a godox speedlight flash pack, everything works fine.. i don't have this flash, but it looks like the Yongnuo YN560 III will...

I have a d600. I would not recommend this flash for it. It is very much lacking in features. The d600 has built in commander flash, so buy a flash that can act as an off camera slave. I have the Yongnuo 468II and love it ($88 on amazon)

I can't imagine why the YN 565 EX wouldn't work on the T3I. I've used it on a Canon 40D and a 5D Mark III and it works perfectly. As far as I'm aware, the TTL pins on all new Canon cameras are the same... It's a great flash that is reliable, well made and offers both on and off camera functions that are important. On camera it provides excellent automatic exposure using the TTL system. Off camera it offers a very sensitive optical slave which functions in two full manual modes..as a standard slave (S-1) or in conjunction with the Canon pre-flash (S-2). It also offers 1/3 stop increments for exposure. I can't imagine why the YN 565 EX wouldn't work on the T3I. I've used it on a Canon 40D and a 5D Mark III and it works perfectly.

sorry about seeing this too late...hope the other 2 answers gave you an idea what to do. another flash is expensive...a pocket wizard is pricey too...i have use use the cowboy trigger system, and they work fine for me...the cowboy trigger works for Nikon too, so when i shoot with my friend who uses a nikon, we can bother trigger the flash

I would contact the Nikon & Sunpak people for the information you're looking for. That's your best bet. I did this when I purchased this flash for my Canon & it helped me make my decision. I like the flash.

I have Yongnuo flash. I use this as an extra flash. It is ok. Quality is fair. Having said that stick with Pocket Wizard. Little expensive but reliable. I have four of these and never had a problem.

I've compared it with my SB-800 and SB-900. The brightness is comparable to both though the illumination pattern is a little less even than the Nikons. iTTL works well and with the Yongnuo YN-622N you have an affordable, full iTTL Pocket Wizard work-alike. Unlike the SB-800 and SB-900 this unit can not act as a Nikon CLS IR commander, but will work CLS IR as slave.

There's the Canon Speedlite 270EX. Its small but not very powerful though it can be bounced off the ceiling (only) in landscape orientation for much more flattering light. The flash uses annoying light pulses in order to assist the camera's auto focus in dim light (more advanced models use a low key red focus assist beam). I can't find a listing for one directly from Amazon right now so be careful who you buy it from. The Sigma EF-530 DG Super is a full-featured powerful flash - I was quite happy with my old EF-500 Super - which offers some features only found on Canon's high-end Speedlite 580EX but its not all that much cheaper than a 430EX II. You'll find the quality of no-name third party flashes varies quite a bit so be very cautious about trying to go too cheap. Metz has a very good reputation for their high end flashes but I'm not really sure about their cheap models. Sunpak has been making good quality flashes for many years but, again, I'm not entirely sure about their cheap models. I'm not sure I'd trust any other brands as they are entirely, or nearly so, all re-labelled Chinese imports of unknown quality. By the way, whichever flash you decide on, be sure to pick up a set of NiMH rechargable batteries. You'll get more shots and shorter flash charge-up times among other advantages. Look for low-self-discharge/pre-charged/hybrid batteries like Sanyo Eneloops. These batteries are made to hold a charge longer while sitting unused so your flash will always be ready to go (standard NiMH will lose their charge over time at a faster rate).
