Have just been given a used Shanny SN 600SN flash, which I have managed to set up and use as a basic slave flash on my D750, but can anyone direct me to where I can get a full user guide for this unit?......the only one I have been able to find is for the SN 600N.
I have only taken up photography in the last couple of years (since retirement) and am loving it, and the results from my D750!

User guide? Manual? What are those? Is that the paperwork in the box we throw away before we try and figure out how to turn the D___ thing on?

There are a few tutorials and reviews on Youtube that may help you.

I have the same one. There is not much info on them but they are made by Younguo. If you put them side by side they are identical. They also work with the Godox wireless transmitter and receiver very well. I have had good service with it. There is an instruction sheet when you buy them new. Website unfortunately does not give much info.

Many thanks......was given this unit and have it working as a basic slave to my D750. I was really interested how you change it to full frame working as it now indicates that it is on DX. Still if I keep playing I'm sure I'll find it......

btw, the Nikon version (the SN600SN) is a variation of the SN600SC for Canon which was one of Shanny’s earlier flash models. It has the same locking feature as Canon flash... and no it is decidedly not made by Younguo, it has a much higher build quality...

I have a half dozen of these units which I use with the Phottix wireless radio trigger/receivers... simply set the Shanny SN 600SN to i-TTL an Bob's your uncle... You then can run remote Shanny SN 600SN's entirely from you Phottix trigger...

The Shanny SN 600SN is a Nikon SB910 clone...
I downloaded the Shanny SN 600SN User Guide long ago...
Keep searching the web it's out there...

Oh, I no longer use the Nikon SB910 since the Shanny SN 600SN has a more powerful flash and a shorter recycle time...

Great unit, I gang mine together in a four flash cluster... HHS up to 1/8000 got to love that!

So if you want to see a review of the Shanny SN 600SN comparison against the Nikon SB910 and the cheaper Yongnuo 568 (It is lengthy 45 minutes) and clearly showcases the differences between these vendor's units...

One awesome feature of the Shanny SN 600SN unit is it has a rubber cover on it's attachment foot to weather seal when attached to the hot shoe.... It's build quality approaches (and in some ways betters) Nikon's SB 910
