Question 1

All things being equal, is there any reason why I wouldn't buy the YN 560 IV instead of this model?

Accepted Answer

It only matters if you shoot with more than 1 flash. But 'all things being equal', the III is like $5 cheaper, so if you buy 4 you save $20.Things not equal: The YN560 has a 'master mode', basically YN560-TX radio transmitter unit built into the flash.  So you can mount the IV on your camera and have it control remote III and IV units.  The III model only works as a slave.  If you're shooting multiple flashes, you need something (a 'Master') to trigger them.  Do you want to buy the $44 TX unit that provides no light, or this $70 IV unit that can provide light?  Personally, I would recommend at least one IV unit, any additional units as III units, and consider the TX unit as well (free up the IV to be used off-camera).

Question 2

Does it works with NIKON D3200?

Accepted Answer

will this flash work with my nikon D5100? i'm new to photography and wanted to know if i could use this flash on my camera alone without any trigers etc?

Question 3

Will this work for a Canon T2i allowing for Canon's E-TTL metering or should I just stick with the Neewer TT560 for manuel mode

Accepted Answer

Hello, this is a manual only flash similar to the Neewer TT560 but has a built in radio transmitter.  I have 4 version III and one version II and having thebuilt in wireless is great feature worth the extra money in my opinion.  I use a YN603 transmitter on my 5Dmk3 and it works great at 1/160 sec exposure.  There are rumors of a new version YN603 that will allow you to change power setting with the YN560 III.  If this is true the YN560 III and new YN603 will be a powerful combination.

Question 4

How do I use my warranty? And how long is it good for?

Accepted Answer

I have attempted to return a YN560-III flash (sold by Six Square and fulfillled by Amazon). It presumably had the same "USA Warranty". When my flash failed after 6 months, I contacted Six Square for an RMA, but they refused to help and claimed the only way to return or get service was by sending the flash back to China. There is no official presence of Yongnuo in the USA!  Amazon subsequently agreed to the return, but deducted a 20% restocking fee.
