[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 687342, member: 13090"] Good luck on your shoot... The tt685 should serve you well. Also, while I don't want to muddy the water I am going to point out that [B][I]IF[/I][/B] you wanted to seriously up your game, you could put an XPro Controller (about £60.00) on your D3300, place your new tt685 anywhere you want and have total control of its output right from the camera body. You could also use the less expensive X1T-N controller but I have used them both and can't even begin to tell you how superior I feel the XPro is over the X1T. I mention this only because getting the flash off-camera was probably THE best thing I learned regarding improving my photography. The freedom of being able to put your flash pretty much anywhere you want is just amaaaazing, even when working with a single flash. I'll further point out your spiffy-new tt685 will come with a foot that has a 1/4 x 20 thread in the bottom to which you can attach a QD plate from a tripod. Put that whole assembly back on your tripod and BAM! Your tripod now serves double-duty as a light-stand since the tt685 has a built-in wireless receiver. Of course this assumes you already have a tripod but I would feel legitimately remiss if I didn't point the virtues of getting the flash out of the hot-shoe. [/QUOTE]
