Does anyone have experience with a Nikon DSLR and either a Yongnuo YN-560 II or a Neewer VK-750 II? They both have vg reviews on Amazon (which indicate that they are fully iTTL compliant) The fact that they cost aprox. 1/5 what a comparable Nikon unit does makes them awfully attractive.....

The Yn-560II is manual only. Not TTL.

I have no experience with the Neewer products. I have six Yongnuo flash units. They are almost like potato chips. You can't buy just one. :)

I bought my first two to supplement my Nikon SB-700. I originally viewed them as low cost disposables at < $50 each. I've been using them for about three years now, and I'm still waiting for one to fail.

I have older flashes from film days I use with triggers.... Why buy something new if you don't have to ?....
