    ANYTHING helps If I understand correctly, you are saying TTL isn't so necessary. My question would then be, why a YN565EX instead of the cheaper YN560III?

    Also, whether I need HSS might end up being the the key point, because if I need that, then the other things, like E-TTL will probably come with it.

    Can't recall what I wrote now, nor what I could have written to offend, despite looking at the rules page.

    As per the site rules, until you have 30 days membership and 50 posts (you had 11 posts when I removed them) you cannot promote/link to commercial products/services etc, in any way. You did not offend, you just didn't adhere to our rules.

    [3] Are not allowed to promote or complain! Promotion or complaints about services/people/organisations/products/businesses by new members is not allowed anywhere on Ausphotography. New members are also not allowed to seek/advertise employment (either paid or unpaid) anywhere on the site.
