Perfect - this is exactly what I needed. The Yongnuo's range IS really confusing! I was feeling really lost, thanks for helping me make a decision.
The internet NEEDED this video!! Thanks! :)
Thank you for this video. I was going mad trying to figure out which one to buy. YN686EX-RT GN60 TTL Flash With Lithium Battery For Canon Camera is the clear winner.
Thank You ! This is the most comprehensive overview of Yongnuo flashes I've seen. You are right, I've mistakenly purchased incompatible Yongnuo flashes, some are triggered by 560 tx and others by 622N tx. I guess its a learning curve. Anyhow thanks again and also for the chart which is very useful.
This is exactly what I searched for. Thank you!
Damn, I applaud you just for learning all the little differences among all these almost identically named products, honestly. Good video!
Thank you!
Hey everyone, fairly long video here so just helping with some timestamps so you can jump to a section relevant to you:
0:45 - Quick breakdown of the full range
5:26 - Manual Flashes - universal and compatible with most cameras
8:50 - TTL Flashes - compatible with Canon and Nikon only
11:15 - Canon RT Flashes - Compatible with Canon only (Specifically the Canon RT wireless system)
Some flashes that weren't shown in the video are:
YN968N - Nikon full i-TTL flash with LED light (Nikon equivalent of the YN968EX-RT for Canon)
YN660 - Manual Flash with GN60 (larger version of YN560 with built-in receiver for YN560-TX)
YN585EX-P - Pentax P-TTL Flash
YN565EX III - the latest versions of the YN565EX for Canon and Nikon
Also older Yongnuo model flashes weren't included such as the YN460 series and earlier models of current flashes such as the YN560 II etc..
thanks for this!
Thanks for the super informative video. Still a little hard to make a choice.
Where is the printed guide shown near the end of the video. I didn’t see it on either of the pages that you linked to in the notes. Thanks!
@@jaschwa1979 Apologies for that Jeff! If you scroll to the bottom of our blog post here, you'll see the compatibility chart for the Yongnuo speedlites there: goo.gl/bUofbr Hope this helps! We'll include the link to the chart in the video description for easier access next time :)
I got one on Alibaba, I have used it for 3 months but now it doesn't give any difference whether 1/1 or 1/128 the output intensity is just the same. Any advice
Very useful as it groups the different models and tells you what they can do and not do.
Thank you for this video. I bought the correct trigger and the wrong speedlight, but now I know what I need. Very helpful!
It can definitely get confusing, especially with so many different models! Glad it helped!
Thanks for explaining and comparing all the flash options from Yongnuo. Now Im able to make a better informed decision.
Glad it helped!
I believe the YN 968 EX RT also has the capability of tilting backwards. So you can bounce light off the back wall.
This video is a godsend! Thanks for putting it together
Glad it was helpful. Yongnuo can get very confusing!
Thank you for this comparison video. Excellent
Great video, liked and subscribed! I've been looking for a buyer's guide like this, the presenter talks clear and explained well. Great job!
I have two Yongnuo YN600EX-RT II along with the Yongnuo YN-E3-RT trigger system. I stopped using regular AA batteries on the YN600EX-RT II and switched over to rechargeable AA batteries. What I found out that the recycle time is much faster using rechargeable over standard batteries.
Well articulated and well explained.
...in few minutes.
The table even makes it a lot easier to understand.
❤️❤️👍👍
Thanks you Solomon, glade you enjoyed it.
Thank you for your excellent break down.
This video is exactly what I was looking for. Well done. Got thumbs up from me.
Thank you!
Great idea to make this video, absolutely helpful. Been using yongnuo since 8 years and they are still confusing
Thank you for a great video. Keep up the good work!
I had a 565 and 568 for a year now and I never discovered I could have the 568 trigger 565 with TTL !
Awesome breakdown on these flashes. You really helped me figure out what I want to go with. Your videos are awesome and informative!
BTW - *QUESTION* I currently have a YN560IV flash but from your video it looks like i want to purchase the YN600EX-RTII for the HSS capability. Now will my current flash the yn560IV be able to be a manual flash/slave so i can shoot off camera. I currently also have 2 rf-603c that i used a few years back with the older YN560. Better Yet ..... what would you recommend if I decide to purchase the YN600EX-rtII as 2 manual flashes used off camera. Thanks so much ..... id love to hear your advice =)
Could you make a complete user guide on Yn685 ASAP please.
Thank you very much! Great comparison!
Glad it helped!
Great guide, thanks so much! I was wondering if its possible to buy a trigger that will be able to control both a yn968ex-rt as well as a yn560iv flash off camera?
Thank u man. that was really helpful and decisive for me to purchase the one suited me better. keep it on.
Kindly do a video with the Yongnuo YN-690 ext rt.
Thanks, really useful video.
Really helpful movie! Thanks a lot.
Amazing. Thanks for making this
No problem 😊
The YONGNUO YN968N has been superseded by the YONGNUO YN968N II
Main difference is the new version zooms to 200mm (vs 105mm) Also length is 8mm longer and 10g heavier. YONGNUO say 'newly upgraded operation interface, more simple and convenient to use,
supports USB Firmware upgrade'. Both the same price online ($129) at B&H.
I have the older YN968n with the latest firmware 1.06. In the Yongnuo YN560 TX Pro manual it "appears" to say it works in iTTL if the firmware is updated. Do you know if the YN560 TX Pro will control the YN968n in iTTL like the YN622 tx?
You needed to have the triggers in the video as well. I still cannot figure out if my RT trigger for my 560 will accommodate the hss of a 686 or if I would also have to upgrade the trigger to an rx version 😟🥺☹️
I just brought the YN568EXIII for Nikon, but I have the Canon R and just want to see if it will work. It works! Maybe because the Canon R is more advance to be comparable with most flashes?
Yes! This video helped me a lot. Thank you!
Thank you for that great video, it provides invaluable information for me!
So glad we could help!
Good job! Great comparison.
Awesome video just side note is to mention which are hss or not
I'm such a newbie.. and this sounds so intimidating
Really useful video! Very complete and full of information! Thanks a lot!!! I'm subscribed!
Talk more about the yn 568 ex ,does it have hss,does it have ttl can i slave it ,can it be a master ,does the screen back light ,does it have an inbuilt receiver to work with a trigger,
Hi, there is any compatible with Xpro C? Thanks 👍 . Really good video.
Thank You So Much!
You helped clear up my confusion greatly! Now I actually know which one I would want to buy and why! :D
As I can see on my own YN-685N there isn't MASTER option. YN-685N is a TTL Slave Flash! Correct me if I'm wrong and teach me how to make it master flash without any additional transmitters.
I'm considering to buy YN-968N so I can use it as a on camera master flash, and to be able to make TTL connection with my old YN-685N which will be used as a off camera flash without any transmitters and receivers. I'm right?
Cheers :)
Very informative.
Awesome vid!
Thanks for the visit!
Hey. I got a YN560-TX Manual Flash Controller a few years ago from a friend. At that time I wasn't inerested in flash phoography but he gave it to me saying "if you ever get interested...". I was wondering if this conroller could work as triggers for a YN568 or YN685. It would save me a few bucks on a new trigger.
*Algún video como éste pero en español???*
Can you tell me if the YN200c is compatible with the YN685C in RF mode? I have a couple of YN685 but want to add a YN200 without having to switch my whole setup. Thanks.
Nice video!could someone explain me which should i buy between the Yongnuo YN-568 EXiii and YN968EX-RT. (i don't care about the radio triggering system,i only want to understand the advantages of each flash)
Does yongnuo have a flash that’s equivalent to the Nikon SB500 or SB5000. If so, which one is it. I have the D850
Thank you so much.
Glad it was helpful!
The 560 with 560 trigger allows zoom control!.
Excellent thank you ..
Glad you liked it!
Have the 968 but it keeps firing on its own, tried everything, any ideas. Is this an overheating issue?
so the 685 cannot control the 560 iii\iv as a master?
and it has hss?
Hi, I have the 968. I have a problem with it continuously going off while not in use/standby. Have I got it set up incorrectly? Beginner here🤔
That shouldn't happen and could potentially be faulty. Is this when shooting on-camera or off-camera?
I had a couple of 568exII and bought a 685 to get more power and of course the built in receiver. It might be my unit, but the 685 is actually 1 full stop of power weaker than the 568... so disappointed...
Hey! whae are you doing an update of this video?
Do you have YN560Li review?
Hi! Thanks for the excellent video. I have a question. I own a canon 430 ex and a yongnuo 560 mk 2 both controlled by rf 603 c. What if i want to buy other 2 yongnuo flashes (with internal receiver) and a controller like the YN560-TX using all 4 flashes simultaneously? Can I trigger the old flashes (430 and 560 mk 2) by the YN560-TX? Thanks!
what flashes can u recomend to be the slave of the YN720.?
Thanks for this video.... I needed it
Hi, i have a YONGNUO YN968 speedlight. it's unuseable becaue it continously fires when not in use. Wen new batteries are inserted it rapid fires on it's own. anyone have any idea what might be wrong?
do yn720 compatible with yn560 tx transmitter?
Hi. What's the difference between the YN568 II and III? Thanks!
i love this video
Thanks for the love Daniel!
What one of these flashes would you recommend? I want to be able to use it off the camera mainly. I have a canon 6d. Great information.
If you're after a full featured TTL flash then we'd recommend either the YN568EX III / C (for Canon) or YN685C would be great.
now i still don't know which one have high speed sync and which ones don't
I know nothing. About speedlight I have a d800 Nikon wonder which of these work with my 800 and if any rechargeable or am I better off to get a Nikon flash
Which of them do you advise me for canon 5d mark ii and 6d please..
Economical and Performances
If your'e after a full featured TTL flash then you can't look past the YN600EX-RT II (similar to the Canon 600EX-RT)
I bought two Yongnuo YN600 ex-rt speedlites and both have developed faults the zoom stops working after light use I would not buy this brand of speedlite again.
A question that I have not been able to figure out for myself: Can I use a YN560TX to trigger one of the TTL flashes in slave mode? And, will the TTL flash accept the power change settings in Manual mode from the 560 TX? I ask this because I think I would like to have a manual setup for many lights and one TTL flash for smaller setups.
Hi Bill, The YN560-TX controller is only directly compatible with the Yongnuo 560/660 series of flashes. If you're using TTL flashes, you will need the newer YN622 II transreceiver underneath each TTL flash to control them in a manual setup. The new YN622 II transreceivers have a 560-RX mode to work within the 560 wireless system. More info can be found here: flashhavoc.com/yongnuo-yn560-tx-to-yn-622c-compatibility-added/
Which HSS flash/trigger combo would you recommend?
I'm currently using YN660 flash with YN560TX with my Nikon cameras, but really need HSS.
I was thinking to get YN685 flash and YN622TX or YN-E3-RT trigger. Now, as far as I can see, YN622TX comes as a trigger/reciever kit, so I guess I'd also be able to use my YN660 flash in HSS mode. Is YN-E3-RT a noticable upgrade over YN622TX? Any suggestions on what's the best combo for HSS? Thanks in advance!
this may be a stupid question but what is HHS and why do you need it
and can you tell me where the 660 falls in this video because that's the flash I've been looking into and it's the only one not talked about :/
@@milavanili High Speed Sync - you need it if you want to use a flash with shutter speeds faster than 1/200s.
@@milavanili Basically your camera shutter reaches a speed (1/8000) so that it surpasses the sync with the flash and can't register all the light. HSS is a way of strobing the flash so you have even light across the entire frame without dark edges where the shutter closes before it could register all the light evenly from the flash. Its something that's a lot easier to see on the photo than to explain.
Hello, can you help me to know if is the Yongnuo yn968ex-rt compatible with the canon rebel t6?
Yes
Wich Speedlite Compatible for Canon 1500D / rebel T7 that has no centre pin connector in hotshoe?
All of the flashes contain a centre pin. If you're after a manual flash, any from the "Manual Flash" range will suit. Alternatively, if you're after a TTL flash purchase the Canon specific flash.
Summary of which ones have the external battery pack connection? (To improve recycle time and flash count)
👍🏿
Regards, spare batteries where they are sold
can anyone recommend me what good speedlight for interior photography?
Depends on what camera brand you shoot with. If you don't mind manually controlling your flash the YN-560 IV is great bang for buck and works with most cameras!
how many watts on a speed light
Is that a joke? Speed lights aren't measured in watts.
the pronunciaiton is Yong-Noo!
How come no one set's up shop here in the states to do repairs on these. Anyone that say's these are, "Throw away's" can kiss my ass. To throw away $80-$100+ must be nice, most cannot afford to do that.
No offence but rather opt for a different brand. Yongnuo dont provide more support
Thank you so much
