I bought a competitor of this flash and I'd agree totally with the review ~ surprisingly, but delightfully good quality for the cheap flashgun ~ agree it's finer points don't match Canon and I'd expect longevity, weather sealing and capacitors to be weaker, but I suspect we'll get our monies' worth.

Yongnuo and Godox are great for the money. But if you shoot outdoors, Canon flagships (like 600ex ii-rt) are the only weather sealed speedlites to Canon cameras. If you shoot only indoors, it doesn't matter, of course.

And like you already said, the build quality is on a totally different level. Canon flagships are reliable, both in build quality and in mechanics. You can trust them to fire everytime. My Godox and Yongnuo keeps letting me down sometimes and it's so annoying when you miss the shot and notice it when it's too late.

I keep all 3 brands. But Canon is the only one I can really trust in every situation, even in rain outside.

CPS, Canon Professional Services: I was a member for many years and it was €70 plus one way shipping, for flash repair in any condition. I launched one down the stone steps of an ancient local collage during a wedding and sent the pieces to CPS for repair, I told them it crashed down a hundred stone steps and they only charged the €70 and I got a new flashgun.

Another one on a fast full power shoot I shot way over specification and it went on fire ~ again a new flash for €70 ~

However, now CPS don't repair flashes anymore and commercial repairs are €300+++

Hello there I also use Both of them also 600ex rt 1st version out of them 3 I can say that I wont swap the canon one best ut all the next ones I will buy will be Yongnuo because its really worth the price. There is not a flash built to last forever anyway Im not afraid to risk it since is cheap but still does the job as good as the canon one. I highly reccomend Yongnuo you can buy 5 of them for the same price of canon and pair them 3 on yongnuo on 1 tripod or softbox and use them as strobe cuz you generate almost the power of strobe.

I like your videos. You have a very unique style about you. New subscriber. 👍

Nossa! Jamais imaginaria que seriam comparáveis dessa maneira no quesito de resultados. Eu não acreditava nas reviews 🙏😍

I bought that cheap flash, dropped it on the floor once from a foot high and the battery door broke. I tried fixing it and taping it and it didn't work. It lasted 1 month.

I love photography but I'm not a pro. I'm in the same boat as you, I purchased a Canon flashlight but now I'm need a second one but don't want to spend $500 on another Canon flashlight. What Speedlite would you recommend for a Canon 6D? I like to do a bit of product photography and portrait photography.

Thanks for sharing your videos!

eu amava meu yongnuo! hahaha
você ja testou algum Godox? é um pouco mais caro que o yongnuo, mas dizem ser bem top! meu primo tá me mandando um dos EUA, to louca pra ver qual é!

The ONLY thing I care about is how bright and wide the autofocus assist beam is.

[mroblige]

Can you do a $20 flash vs $500 flash. I would do it myself but I can't afford the high end one

[ccbougleux]

Nós temos o mesmo range de lente e eu tenho 2 flashes assim como vc, um Nikon e um Wireless YN. E tenho usado mais o YN pq com o radio transmissor eu posso controlar o flash fora da câmera pelo radioflash. Já vou comprar mais um YN. Tenho há 1 ano e meu Niko tem 6 anos.
