Review on ๐Ÿ“ธ YONGNUO YN-568EX II High-Performance TTL Flash Speedlite Compatible with Canon E-TTL/E-TTL II Cameras by Gary Generale

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great value for money. Powered by Canon EOS 80D.

If you have a DSLR, you really need an external flash. Even with the built-in pop-up flash, the number of uses is quite limited. This is a TTL measurement with an infrared sensor. Among the features that got me going were the price (compared to Canon's OEM with similar features), the pan/tilt head, the zoom function, the built-in flash card and diffuser, and the ability to operate in manual or auto mode work. a flash of this size, it's pretty light. It is powered by 4 AA batteries. It can act as the main light or as a slave. The menu system is intuitive. The LCD display is easy to read. Sound and light can be switched. The head rotates 180 degrees from left to right, but also rotates back and forth. The flash does not have an external battery backup option. I just keep a set of spare batteries on hand. Recovery for the next shot is pretty quick too. All in all, you can't go wrong with it. Even if you buy 5 you're still better off than buying a Canon flash for 5 times the price. It comes with a nice nylon sheath with Velcro for protection. Excellent flash
