I have just received one of these from Hong Kong to the UK for 62 UK Pounds.
It is very very good, and your videos gave me a great start to my experiments.
I think in TTL mode it tends to overexpose, but it is so easy to back off a couple of notches, and it remembers that setting.
Thank you very much for your help, you have helped me buy a very good value flash, I would not pay 200-300 pounds for a Canon flash at this stage in my Camera hobby.
@siavashfinlandi , may I know where is the "electronic eye" located? I'm very interesting if it still can work perfectly for off-camera if I put it anywhere (of couse got master flash to trigger it)
@gideonMorrison It really depends on if you need only manual control, or if you would like to use ETTL, when you are using it on camera. 560 is more powerful, but doesn't communicate with cameras ETTL metering. 468 on the other hand does support ETTL.
connect it to YN468, it is working fine except that u won't be able to adjust anything on the LCD when it is connected with the receiver. and the worse part is, 10 seconds after u attached the receiver, the flash will turn off. ???? is't normal?
@dewatandas Hi, what do you mean "won't be adble to adjust anything on LCD..." ??
Camera LCD or flashgun's LCD? Is this mean after use as on-camera, then the setting on flashgun cannot work? All setting only adjust on camera LCD? please advise, thanks.
You helped me a lot to choose flashgun! Gen. 2 version is out now (Yongnuo 468 II), I bought one from ebay for just $93. I love it!

Can I get a reciever to make the slave flash, so I can hide the flash somewhere that is invisible to the eye.?
If so can I use my 468 mounted on top of my camera to trigger the slave flash somewhere?

Is the optical slave sensor really in the same side as the LCD screen??? It's normally on the other side.
