Hey nice video, though i was looking for a bit more information, but now i have more questions.

You have had this a while now, is it reliable? I have heard that the slave sensitivity can be very unstable, is this true? And the Guide No.: 58 Meters (ISO 100, 105mm) i heard it was more like 30 Meters, can you confirm this?

Thanks for uploading the vid,xx

@missalisonhamiltonUK Hi there - check out the review on the Speedlights website - all of your questions are answered there; it's a very reliable flash, I've used it extensively now for 1 year.

can i optically trigger this using my popup flash? i use a d90

[SpeedlightsNet]

@makkoman yes that works - use one of the optical slave modes on the YN560

Was the flash diffuser size a one time mistake or is this common?

[SpeedlightsNet]

@johnnyz86 it was a one-time thing, and remember it's called a "free gift" so I don't complain. The 2nd YN-560 I bought came with the right diffuser.
