Review on Yongnuo YN-560IV: Upgraded 560III with YN-560-TX - 2.4G Wireless Flash Speedlite Trigger Controller for Canon Nikon Olympus Pentax by Gervan Mauldin

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great flashes for use off camera.

I would like to start by saying that I am not a professional photographer but I consider myself an enthusiast. Now I have 6 of these YN-560IVs, I've photographed a few events and taken some outdoor portraits during the day. I have no comparison as these are my first flashes to use off camera. For events I have a portrait area and another gathering/dinner/party area. In addition to the flashes, I have two YN560-TX transmitters, one per camera/lens for each area, and so far I've been very happy with the performance of the system. Remember that any YN-560IV can act as a transmitter, so you don't need a YN560-TX. I decided to use a special transmitter to reduce the size of my camera. Great flashes so far and I have no reason to think these flashes will let me down. If you hesitate to try it or not, drop the hammer, I think you will be satisfied.
