[QUOTE="bmilcs, post: 316175, member: 24815"] So, I now have my Vanguard Alta Pro and Yungnuo Flash. The tripod: a beast. It is a rock. Not so sure about bringing it out and about as stated in a previous post but for around the house, it's a monster. The Flash: I put in 4 brand new Alkaline AA batteries. I got maybe 200 pics out of it - most at -3 or -4 power and it's already dead. Is this normal? I wasn't expecting it to die that fast but then again, it's my first speedlite. I was told to keep the Yungnuo output to -3 or -4 power from an Amazon review, but when using those options, it doesn't even feel like I'm adding any light. Was this advice poor? I did a few pics at full power and they were outstanding via TTL hot shoe bounced off the ceiling. Obviously, I need to pick up some rechargeable batteries. Are Eneloops the standard? [/QUOTE]
