[QUOTE="rocketman122, post: 390770, member: 14443"] I own 8 flashes now. I just bought the 565 around a month ago to use with my weddings and it does not work well with the 622n at all. Im under time stress to finish family formals and the damn thing decides to take a break while im shooting. luckily for me I look at the screen every few frames to see its firing. but its a pita when you have groups of people in front of you and you have to go play with the flash. im passing the flash to a family member. the screen sucks as well. not the quality but the way info is shown. I just got a 3rd 560III that ill use with it. new kids on the block SHANNY look like they have some killer gear. Ill give them time to get any (IF they do) bugs worked out. I think the way im seeing things, ill wind up selling all my yongnuo gear and moving all to Shanny. the build, features and price have started to make yongnuos service, quality and price look like crap. as soon as Shanny announced flashes yongnuo dropped their prices of the 568 flagship immeditely from $170 to $120. ive eaten to much crap with yongnuo and they have some bad CS. their repair to my 568 flash that fell to the floor from using their POS 603 mkI (becase it doesnt have a locking wheel-whos the idiot there who designed that) was just crap, so I am sour with them. I also have a huge problem with the 622n where one camera/slave/flash setup fires another camera/slave/flash. so in a wedding, IM shooting and flashing my self in the eye with the other camera is around my neck with the flash up. HUGE FAIL for me. personally, I would ONLY use a nikon flash on camera. off camera, 560III are killer as they also have a battery pack port should you need it. SB800 doesnt work well with 622n on camera. off camera its fine. the 602/3/5 dont have a ttl pass through hot shoe though (if I remember correctly) so for me they are out. the ttl pass through is a must because its my main flash and the ones off camera are supplementary/fill flash to light the dance floor/ceremony area im shooting. phottix make good slaves from what I hear, but I dont see a reason why one needs to spend so much today for a pair of slaves. im also not keen on buying different mfr. I was considering buying godox (V850/860) but after reports of many people have huge fails with their batteries I wouldnt touch them if you gave them to me for free. to me when a company doesnt post theyre having issue with the batteries, to me that says ethics and I lose all respect for a company. they are out.
