[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 281735, member: 12496"] There are a few types of wireless triggers.... optical slaves, radio triggers, and Nikon Commander - all incompatible with each other. The Yongnuo YN-560 III (only the III) has radio trigger receiver built in, for manual flash with their own radio transmitter. It also has an optical slave trigger in it, for manual flash, triggered by any manual flash (but NOT the Commander). Neither of these modes are compatible with the Nikon Commander. The YN-560 (any version) cannot do TTL or Nikon Commander. The Yongnuo YN-565EX (another low priced flash) has TTL, and it is compatible with a Nikon Commander. It also has an optical slave in it for manual flash. If you are seeking Commander TTL, this is a low priced candidate. Descriptions of the Yongnuo features are here: [URL="http://www.hkyongnuo.com/e-ourproduct.php?category=1.Flash"]1.Flash-YONGNUO, photographic equipment, camera accessories, flash light, camera remote control, speedlite, photo equipment, LED photo light, flash trigger, camera wireless remote control, TTL cord[/URL] [/QUOTE]
