An instructive and helpful video. One thing, however, when you entered the Slave mode feature, you had it set for: "Cn" (Canon) rather than "N" (Nikon). Interestingly, it seemed to work. Anyway, an otherwise great review. Thanks!
great video. I came across your video about the yongnuo 565ex, which I have, and never realized I could fire it without triggers. .nice. It works perfect because I tried it after watching the video. I purchased the 568ex model because it had hss. should work nicely with my nikon d7000.
So the flash's TTL works even just from a popup triggering it? It's not firing a manual flash? I thought that was only possible when using a compatible TTL wireless trigger?
Have you notice lose fit on the hotshoe for nikon it moves a little it doesn't fit right ,that's the only downside of this flash. I wanted to know if that's normal on all Nikon fit with this flash?
Hi. I have a flash similar to yours. It's NEEWER SPEEDLIGHT NW656EX. My camera type is Canon SX60 HS, which is a bridge camera. The flash is really good. But it seems that either the flash is powerful than the camera or I didn't get the settings right. The reason is that when I mount the flash on the camera and put both on, the flash is always adjusting all the time. You can hear the sound all the time. Will you be able to advice on this? Alternative, can you suggest a very good, not expensive flash for my camera? Thanks
What is the difference between YN468 II (iTTL for Nikon) and this flash YN565 (TTL for Nikon) ? Will YN565 automatically adjust the flash lens position based on the camera lens position similar to YN468 II (iTTL)? I want to buy one of this flash for Nikon D7000. Please suggest
hi there great video , just wondering if that means it works with Nikons CLS if i got two of these would i still need to get the TTL transmiter/receiver thank you
Got a few questions: 1. Is this flash more powerful than Nikon SB700? 2. With SB700 set to i-TTL and put on a Pocketwizard TT5 and remote operated from an Pocketwizard mini-TT1 on top of a D800 and with AC3 (or SU-800) on top of the mini-TT1, this gives me commander mode control, can switch between Manual and i-TTL with SB700 on TT5. So... will this Yongnou flash allow me to do the same? Any comments please.
Dear Fotogenic team , Can you also put up a video for yongnuo YN 685 for nikon ....i am not able to figure out how to trigger it optically as shown in this current video of yours towards the end .. Thanks in Advance - Tejas
hello sir great review :) I just ordered this flash for my d3300 but I forgot to check if this have an optical slave mode (don't know if I said that correct). I mean the mode that I use my pop up flash as a master and when it see the first flash it fires the yongnuo ... can you please help me ??
Yes. My Nikon d3200 doesn't have a commander mode either. What I had to do was go a purchase a trigger for the hotshoe and flash itself. Works like a charm. The one I purchased was the Phottix Atlas II Wireless Trigger. Make sure to purchase two (one for the hotshoe, the other for the flash to receive the command. I also have this very flash.
+Ahsokan Different. If you use Camera built-in flash commander, your two flashes should be slaves at all. With one 565EX attached, built-in commander will be disabled and cannot control another like +John Beck asked
+brianminkc Nikon version of this flash does NOT have commander mode... it does however have CLS mode as a slave... it will not function as the commander though.
Has anyone tried to get service on the Yongnuo? I get that they have no place to send defective units to a US location. You have to send it to China, and pay BOTH way. No way I would spend some $80 or so, for what may be a $70 unit. I bought a YN560 iii, only 2 months, at 1/16th or less power! Less than 5 sessions. Already broke (in the middle of a shoot!). Now it wont flash other than at full power, a common happening. Essentially useless. For covering events, I need something with quick recycling time. Having to send the units to China, what they are saying is the their flash has NO WARRANTY. They offer the warranty just for legal reasons I guess. I am looking at my trusy Vivitar 285. Yeah, she is ugly, rattles, no fancy digital buttons. But she works. I really feel that by going with the Yongnuo flash, I left a good women for a cheap hooker who just left and took my money.
Thanks, I was trying to figure out how to use mine with my D800 for slave mode, and that explained it all perfectly.
Great review. I just bought this flash today. Your video was much better than trying to read the manual!
Thanks. Great tutorial, clear and concise. I had to watch several of these before I found this one that I actually understood.
Very clear explanation of the features. Just the video I was looking for! Thanks
Man

Could anyone tell me how to turn High speed sync on ?
565EX comes with built-in wireless, hence extra $50 in price from 468 II.
Thanks for sharing....
can you make a video about the 568ex for nikon on how to use the HSS on and off the camera please...
Best! Thanks.
thanks
So the flash's TTL works even just from a popup triggering it? It's not firing a manual flash? I thought that was only possible when using a compatible TTL wireless trigger?
brilliant!
can you please do a video on the multimode function ?
Can you tell me how I can program the groups and channels of the flash, please?
Have you notice lose fit on the hotshoe for nikon it moves a little it doesn't fit right ,that's the only downside of this flash.
I wanted to know if that's normal on all Nikon fit with this flash?

Great demo,I would like to buy yn565ex11,do i need also to buy yn622-txc to use flash off the camera(c 70D),i under stand they come in pair.Thanks.
Hello
I'm using the same model but can not flash shots on 1/250
I would appreciate your help Have a setting
Thank you
Most likely your camera does not support High Speed Sync, google Shutter Speed and HSS to get more info on the topic.
I understand that this flash does not support hss
thank you. :)

hello there, i wanted to ask, is there a built in radio receiver in yn 568ex like the yn 560iii?
thanks in advance.
Dear Fotogenic team ,
Can you also put up a video for yongnuo YN 685 for nikon ....i am not able to figure out how to trigger it optically as shown in this current video of yours towards the end .. Thanks in Advance - Tejas
El 685 no tiene respuesta óptica, solo cuenta con respuesta radial, para eso necesitas de transmisor YN 622.
Does somone knows if the 565ex III also works as off camera flash?
hello sir great review :) I just ordered this flash for my d3300 but I forgot to check if this have an optical slave mode (don't know if I said that correct). I mean the mode that I use my pop up flash as a master and when it see the first flash it fires the yongnuo ... can you please help me ??
6:47
so when we use off flash
the zoom function set to blank and what is the "cn" mean ?
can we stop the built in flash to light???
Yongnuo YN565EX for canon 40d auto function? is good
I just noticed my d5200 doesn't have a commander mode, there is a way to control the flash remotely without CM?
Yes. My Nikon d3200 doesn't have a commander mode either. What I had to do was go a purchase a trigger for the hotshoe and flash itself. Works like a charm.
The one I purchased was the Phottix Atlas II Wireless Trigger. Make sure to purchase two (one for the hotshoe, the other for the flash to receive the command. I also have this very flash.
Hello,
I am interested in one of these flashes. Do you know if it compatible with a D80 in TTL?
Thank you,
yes it is compatible.
Is it compatible with Nikon d200?
I have a Nikon D3200 there is no commander Mode on it what do I do?
that nikon doesnt have that option so you need to buy triggers for flash of camera
Does it work on D610
does it work for a nikon d300?
what about hss
is good flash for d3100 ?
Can you use two of these flashes together? For example, one on the camera and one off as a slave?
+John Beck This one does not has Master function, so that You can not
+Hung Nguyen But the Camer has, or does it not matter?
+Ahsokan Different. If you use Camera built-in flash commander, your two flashes should be slaves at all. With one 565EX attached, built-in commander will be disabled and cannot control another like +John Beck asked
is this compatible with d90? help...
Duh.
can I use it with a remote trigger?
Yes
Someone have never used it with Nikon d 300? I hope It works!
works very well pirino
Thank you!
Will this speedlite work with SU-800? THanks
I think it will if you mean CLS mode.
***** yeah I mean cls
Yes it should work fine as a slave to the SB-800. You have 4 channels and 3 groups you can put the remote flashes on.
This flash more complicated then my camera🤣
Will this unit do HSS?
Yes, that's the reason I purchased it.
Kenny Bellew Accdg to another youtube video, this does not do HSS. Does it really?
ritchie mae gamot
I think I was mistaken. Sorry. I was sure I had read that it did HSS.
do this work with a d5500 ?
yes .it works
Thank you 👍
i dont think so. d5500 got no commander mode
wtf I searched YN568ex ii and this video comes up
+brianminkc Nikon version of this flash does NOT have commander mode... it does however have CLS mode as a slave... it will not function as the commander though.
