Help me, experts! I am looking for an upgrade to my very basic SB 300. My requirements are simple: of course, must be compatible with my Nikon D5500, TTL, a FAST recycle time, able to turn so I can bounce off walls, and not large or loud. I am ready to venture into 3rd party brands, but I have heard Yongnuo manuals are very difficult to understand and I love a good manual. Your insights are most appreciated.
My main advice, from personal experience, would be to get the most powerful unit you can afford. You can always turn them down. I now have a relatively powerful Canon 580 that can light up an entire room when bounced, a feature that I use for some real estate photos.
