I'm looking @ just 2 YONGNUO YN968N Wireless or GODOX V860II-N 2.4G TTL Li-on Battery Camera Flash. Need to make up my mind. Any thoughts?


------------------
Personally, I would recommend the Godox. It is very reliable and works well with my Nikon D7100.

Which one did you get?
I assume the Li since you mentioned a charger.

Yes. I checked & it does 600+ shots on a charge. Probably 250 @ full power. That was good enough for me.

If it's the Flashpoint Zoom Li-ion R2 TTL the specifications say:
Approx. 650 full power flashes per charge.
I've never counted mine but it's pretty good.

Yah. I was being sarcastic. It's way more than enough for me. Thanks for the reply.

Have heard warranty may be better through them but haven’t had the need.


Recently I had a Flashpoint AD600 Pro battery fall below levels where it would refuse to charge. I called Adorama and they responded that as a one-time arrangement they would replace the battery despite it being 2 years old at no cost. Adorama delivered big time in this case as the battery is close to $200.00 retail to replace.

Yup They are good people. That's why I bought from them even though Amazon was including filters & cases etc. @ the same price.

Great to hear that!
Love my 600...and 200.

Not real inexpensive even now but I use a Nikon SB 910 on both my D7100 and D7200 and have no complaints. Just my 2 cents.

Godox is great, the radio system works great. Best bang for the buck. Watch Adorama for deals on there rebranded Flashpoint, the V1 was selling for $150 during Christmas.
