YONGNUO YN685 GN60 2.4G System ITTL HSS Wireless Flash Speedlite with Radio Slave for Nikon DSLR Cameras

Comment

I have 4 of these speedlites. I purchase this one used with a slight crack in the red plastic cover. I works perfectly and I got a great deal on it.

I like this light and like it very much for its price and capability. I do wish it was easier to set up as slave and then back. There should be one button for this.

Bought two in Sept 2016. Its now Dec 2016 and only 1 is still usable. The battery door broke on the other. Still trying to figure out how to do warranty repair. Searching the web for help is not encouraging.

These flashes are some of the best deals in photography. If they were twice as expensive, they would still be some of the best deals in photography. I use these professionally for weddings and they have been rock solid.

Did my homework before purchasing and Im very happy with this flash. Worked and fit perfectly. Watched a few video tutorials and programmming was a breeze.

I purchased the flash 4/5/19 I’m writing this review on 5/11/19 I used it moderately for 1 month and today it finally gave me an error and stopped firing all together. Super disappointed in the quality. Additionally the “lock” that connects to the camera or light stand broke as well.

Very good product for the money you pay. If you are going to use it professionally in an event you want to get an external battery like Godox Propack PB960 with a Canon cable (eventhough the flash is for Nikon cameras).

It is definitely a large flash. It has functioned flawlessly for the last 5 months with medium use. I really like the large size for shooting material sample shots in my lab but wish yongnuo would also make a smaller flash to keep a smaller footprint when traveling.

This flash, considering the price, is amazingly good. As a long time Nikon speedlight user (though I think they peaked at the SB800 and are going downhill since) I expected a piece of junk, frankly, but since it was RF compatible with the YN622N-TX, i figured I would try it. On the bad side it is really large, the documentation is typical Yongnuo (i.e. bad), and the head does not give a very clear indication when level vs slightly depressed. But on the good side it is powerful (Id guess a bit below an SB800, but not much), recycles very fast, has all the features I needed, and so far has worked flawlessly. It also has a very nice "lock" position for the on/off switch that keeps you from accidentally changing settings while repositioning it (I wish the YN622Ns had that actually). I use it primarily for off-camera flash, where the size is perhaps even an advantage. It is usable on-camera, but a bit bulky (not so much heavy as just large). I have also tested it in high speed sync (i.e. FP sync in Nikon terms) and it worked nicely up to 8000th, on and off camera. Some test shots against an SB800 showed similarly even spread of light, no hot/dark spots. Considering the price of a new Nikon RF enabled flass (and worst the RF controller for their pro cameras) this is a real bargain.
