[QUOTE="J-Dub, post: 149654, member: 14212"] I have an SB-700 and I'd like to add another flash or two to my setup. But instead of spending the money on another SB700 or SB900 I thought about getting something like the Yongnuo YN-560EX. But I don't understand everything about this flash. It seems it can be triggered by the Nikon CLS, is that correct? And is that what iTTL is? If not, what is iTTL in regard to flash? Is there a cheaper version of this flash that will trigger by CLS? Regarding flash in general... What is a manual flash? If I use a manual flash do I need to have a light meter? If I use iTTL I don't necessarily need a light meter correct? I feel my questions are all over the place because I don't understand the terminology. Could someone help? :) Thanks! JW [/QUOTE]
